Birth and Growth of Myth and Its Survival in Folk Lore, Legend and Dogma

Birth and Growth of Myth and Its Survival in Folk Lore, Legend and Dogma is a comprehensive study of the origins and evolution of myths, and how they have been passed down through various forms of storytelling, including folk tales, legends, and religious dogma. Written by Edward Clodd, a British writer and anthropologist, the book explores the psychological and cultural significance of myths, and how they have shaped human understanding of the world and our place in it. Clodd examines the common themes and motifs found in myths from different cultures and time periods, and traces their development and transformation over time. He also discusses the role of myths in religious belief systems, and how they have influenced the development of religious practices and rituals. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of mythology, folklore, and cultural anthropology.1875.
