A classic study of the beliefs and institutions of mankind, and the progress through magic and religion to scientific thought,
 The Golden Bough has a unique status in modern anthropology and literature. First published in 1890, The Golden Bough was
 eventually issued in a twelve-volume edition (1906-15) which was abridged in 1922 by the author and his wife.
 That abridgement has never been reconsidered for a modern audience. In it some of the more controversial
 passages were dropped, including Frazer's daring speculations on the Crucifixion of Christ. For the
 first time this one-volume edition restores Frazer's bolder theories and sets them within the framework of
 a valuableintroduction and notes. A seminal work of modern anthropolgy, The Golden Bough also influenced many
 twentieth-century writers, including D H Lawrence, T S Eliot, and Wyndham Lewis. Its discussion of magical types,
 the sacrificial killing of kings, the dying god, and the scapegoat is given fresh pertinence in this new edition.
