Od pradávna ľudia hľadia na nebo, skúmajú ho, oživujú a dramatizujú. A nebo odpovedá. Svojou rečou, búrkami, bleskami... Nebo, pamäť a zrkadlo sveta, sa zaľudňuje dobrými i zlými bohmi, známymi i neznámymi zvieratami. A je nevyčerpateľným prameňom najkrajších mýtov.

Translated from French this is a fun look at how people have perceived the sky and associated phenomena over the years. Lavishly illustrated this short work has a plethora of information about mythology, the stars, sun, planets, comets and all natural occurrences that come from the sky. There is a very French feel to the final "document" section but overall this is a charming and useful little book. ( )

This is a fantastic little book If you're lucky enough to come across a copy. Full of eclectic and varied subjects relating to the sky above and peoples' perception of it through the ages, it is really well illustrated and makes great reading in short bursts. ( )
