No longer offered. It was in Waterloo’s course catalog since at least Winter 2020 (as far back as Open Data goes) to Spring 2021. It isn’t in the 2024–25 or later calendars.

In the course catalog from Winter 2020 to Spring 2021; Open Data has no classes for it in that time.

This course examines the cultural background of East Slavic mythology. Elements of the Russian fairy tale and Bylina (Epic Song) - such as a hero's or a heroine's journeys to the Other World, goddess worship, and the fearsome beings (for example the Baba-Yaga, the Zmei, and Koshchei) - are analyzed. [Note: Taught in English. This course will have a Slavic language component for students in REES academic plans.]
