Zarathustra und seine Religion

Rate this book
Der Name Zarathustra ist nicht zuletzt durch Nietzsches Werk vielen ein Begriff, aber über den historischen Zarathustra, der vor über 2500 Jahren lebte, und seine bis heute verbreitete Religion, den Zoroastrismus, ist nur wenig bekannt. Michael Stausberg bietet einen kompakten und allgemeinverständlichen Überblick über die Geschichte sowie die zentralen Themen, Organisationsformen, Rituale und Feiern dieser kleinen, aber alten Religionsgemeinschaft.

A very good book to start to learn about ancient religion of Zoroastrianism.

Arguably the best introduction to Zoroastrianism and its founding figure I have ever encountered. Concise, well-organized and thoughtful in its presentation, no study of world religions would be complete without recourse to this book.

I really liked it for the first book on it and him that i've read. Talks about everything in compact paragraphs that were easy to get lost in unless you knew it was coming. Gives a few ideas on influences on other religions too.

Das Buch war interessant aber leider hat man wenig über Zarathustra und sein Wirken und mehr über die Religion im allgemeinen etwas erfahren.
