ПОВРАТАК БОГОВА - НОРДИЈСКИ НЕОПАГАНИЗАМ
RETURN OF THE GODS – THE NORDIC NEOPAGANISM

Summary/Abstract: One of the main forms of the New Age is certainly neo-paganism. This phenomenonis interesting precisely because of the advocacy of a return to nature, that is, to “MotherEarth”. Neo-paganism is often presented as a movement that contains many uncertainties inspired by the revival of ancient pagan spiritualities. Although worldviews of manand man differ from movement to movement, in spite of everything, there are many common views such as the naturalistic view as well as the relativistic conception of existence.The paper will systematically present the origins and history of this phenomenon, starting with ancient Rome, Norse mythology, medieval witchcraft, the characters of AlistairCrowley, Gerald Gardner, Margaret Murray, the legend of the mysterious island of Tulaand neo-pagan movements in Europe since the 50’s XX to this day.
