内容简介

First published in 1890, The Golden Bough is a seminal work of modern anthropology. A classic study of the beliefs and institutions of mankind that traces the development and confluence of thought from magic and ritual to modern scientific theory, it has been a source of great influence upon

such diverse writers as T.S. Eliot, Wyndham Lewis, and D.H. Lawrence. This edition restores many of the controversial passages expurgated in the 1922 edition that elucidate Frazer's bolder theories, and sets them within the framework of a valuable introduction and notes.

作者简介

J.G.弗雷泽（1854-1941）英国著名的人类学家和民俗学家，认为“巫术先于宗教”的第一人，一生至为勤奋，著述甚丰。人们是这样评价他的：“将来后代评价我们这一代人的工作时，只要开出詹姆斯·弗雷泽的著作目录来，就足以驳回关于我们无能的指责。”在弗雷泽的众多著作当中，《金枝》一书最为知名，并使他在世界学术界获得了崇高声誉。
