About This Book

Teksti esittelee esivanhempien pakanallisen jumankäsityksen ja epäjumalien kuvaston, selittäen niiden syntyä luonnonilmiöiden ja kielellisten lähtökohtien kautta. Se käsittelee jumala‑sanan ja ukko‑nimityksen etymologiaa, taivaan ja ilman jumalien rooleja sateen, tuulen ja ukkosen hallitsijoina sekä kuvailee jumalien ihmismäisiä piirteitä, palvontatapoja ja rukouksia. Aineisto luokittelee henkisiä olentoja eri elinympäristöjen mukaan, käyttää runomuotoista perinnettä esimerkkeinä ja pohtii, miten luonnon havaintoihin perustuva maailmankuva ohjasi esi‑isien uskonnollisia käsityksiä.
