Title
The Golden Bough: A Study In Magic And Religion,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Sir James George Frazer originally set out to discover the origins of one ancient custom in Classical Rome the plucking of the Golden Bough from a tree in the sacred grove of Diana, and the murderous succession of the priesthood there and was led by his invetigations into a twentyfive year study of primitive customs, superstitions, magic and myth throughout the world. The monumental thirteenvolume work which resulted has been a rich source of anthropological material and a literary masterpiece for more than half a century. Both the wealth of his illustrative material and the broad sweep of his argument can be appreciated in this very readable single volume.
