Om denne boken

"The Golden Bough: A Study in Comparative Religion (Vol. 1 of 2)" by Sir James George Frazer is a comparative study first published in 1890. This groundbreaking work examines mythology and religion across cultures, exploring fertility rites, human sacrifice, dying gods, and sacred kingship. Frazer proposes that humanity's understanding evolved from magic through religion to science, tracing ancient rituals centered on seasonal cycles and priest-kings. Though it scandalized Victorian readers and later faced scholarly criticism, the work profoundly influenced twentieth-century literature and thought.
