Description:Translated from Greek by Robert Zaller, Lili Bita's "Firewalkers" transcends time and artfully depicts common themes that surface throughout history. In this collection, Bita composes verse of the female perspective of Greece. "Each spring, the Anastenarides - firewalkers - of Macedonia, devotees of an ancient Dionysian rite, dance barefoot on burning coals, and emerge unharmed. Their ritual also includes solemn procession, sacred dancing, and animal sacrifice. In states of ecstatic possession, many of them race into the hills bearing torches. Orgies have been reported by some observers. The Anastenarides regard themselves as Christians and carry icons in their processions, but attend no church" -L.B.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
