Description:
A monumental study of comparative magic, folklore, and religion, The Golden Bough was originally published in two volumes in 1890, grew to twelve volumes for the third edition in 1915, and was ultimately abridged by the author into this one-volume edition in 1922. Drawing on the myths, rites and rituals, totems and taboos, and religious beliefs and customs of ancient European civilizations and primitive cultures throughout the world, James Frazer's ideas had a far-reaching impact on the course of modern anthropology, philosophy, and psychology and on the writing of such literary figures as D. H. Lawrence, Ezra Pound, and T. S. Eliot.
