Asian Myth

As you begin to listen to this book, you will become familiar with all the gods and goddesses of Chinese culture. The historical context will become clear, as well as the institutions, the law, the rules about sexuality, marriage, and children, and so much more. Understanding these aspects of their society before fully becoming engaged in the folklore that was the popular belief at the time is essential to your comprehension of the cultural anecdotes in those tales.

Diccionario de Mitos de Asia es la tercera entrega de esta serie sobre mitos del mundo. En esta ocasión partimos del amor por narrar a la manera de Las mil y una noches. Nuestra fascinación por las historias sobre animales maravillosos; personas que pueden transformarse en flores; ancianos sabios y valientes princesas; dioses de muchos brazos y demonios terroríficos, nos traslada a Mesopotamia, Persia, Arabia, China, la India y Japón.
