About Marena, as the goddess of winter, should be told separately. Our book is dedicated to this image. Here they will find their explanation and "snow women", and a fabulous Snow Maiden, and ... Shrovetide. The archaic roots of the central symbol of the Russian festival of Shrovetide - the honest and burned stuffed animal - are obvious, but this figure is explained only through the image of Marena, the winter guest.
Who was she for our ancestors? Why was it necessary to destroy it? What magically did the concomitant rituals carry meanings? Is Shrovetide possible in the summer?
The book on extensive material answers in detail these questions and reveals all the nuances of the technology for manufacturing a molten scarecrow from different Slavic peoples, rituals and methods of destruction with it
