A dictionary of Albanian religion, mythology, and folk culture

by Robert Elsie

"A Dictionary of Albanian Religion, Mythology, and Folk Culture makes available for the first time a wealth of knowledge about Albanian popular belief and folk customs. Alphabetical entries shed light on blood feuding; figures of Albanian mythology; religious beliefs, communities, and sects; calendar feasts and rituals; and popular superstitions, as well as birth, marriage, and funeral customs, and sexual mores. This unique volume will stand as the standard reference work on the subject for years to come."--BOOK JACKET.
