The Horus Myth In Its Relation To Christianity (1877)

The Horus Myth In Its Relation To Christianity (1877) is a book written by William Ricketts Cooper that explores the similarities between the ancient Egyptian myth of Horus and the story of Jesus Christ in Christianity. Cooper delves into the various aspects of the Horus myth, including his birth, life, death, and resurrection, and compares them to the corresponding events in the life of Jesus. He argues that many of the elements in the Christian story were borrowed from the Horus myth, and that this borrowing was likely intentional. Cooper also discusses the historical and cultural context in which the Horus myth and Christianity emerged, and explores the implications of these similarities for our understanding of religion and mythology. The book is a fascinating exploration of the intersections between different religious traditions and the ways in which they have influenced one another throughout history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
