Garden of Doom E.206 Crecganford
from Garden of Thought · host Jeff Lippman
The Garden welcomes in Jon F. White of Crecganford. Professor White might be the foremost expert in Indo-European myths and comparative mythology. We discuss certain cognates, themes, and distinctions in mythology. Jon also graces us with something that may just well be the original Indo-European creation story. Questions include: why is Odin so complex? Why don't we have much for certain information on religions like those of the Slavics, Celts, Phoenicians, Minoans, and others. Do administrative States lead to administrative gods? Is there any comparison to Troy and Eden? Is the Bible a giant departure or just a new coat of paint on older themes? There's a lot packed into this hour. Best of all: Jon has agreed to visit us again. Yes, he won a timeshare in the Garden of Doom.
