Etruscan Roman Remains in Popular Tradition is a book written by Charles Godfrey Leland that explores the influence of Etruscan and Roman culture on popular traditions in Italy. The book delves into the history and mythology of the Etruscan and Roman civilizations, examining how their beliefs and customs have been passed down through generations and incorporated into modern Italian folklore. Leland also discusses the impact of these ancient cultures on art, literature, and architecture in Italy. The book is a fascinating exploration of the enduring legacy of the Etruscan and Roman civilizations and their continued influence on Italian culture.1892. Leland was a 19th century journalist, author and folklorist, specializing in Native American, Gypsy and Italian traditions. This book is a classic study of the folklore of the Tuscan region of Italy. It ties these traditions to ancient Etruscan and Roman pagan practices. The central focus is the ideology and practice of Stregheria, Italian traditional witchcraft. The text includes many fairy-tales of the sort that are not suitable for children. Leland draws on often obscure sources which tie his data into classical and pre-classical pagan traditions, particularly the little-known Etruscan religion.
