"The Golden Bough: Vittoria. A study of comparative religion" is a significant work by James George Fraser, which opens readers to the fascinating world of religious beliefs and rituals of different peoples. In the first of two volumes, the author examines religious practices, archaic beliefs and rituals of various civilizations, turning to mythology and sacred texts. Fraser successfully combined anthropology, history of religions, and cultural ethnography in an attempt to unfold a powerful mosaic of religious symbols and practices that reflect the universal orientation of human thought. This book not only inspires the study of the diversity of religious experience, but also prompts the reader to his own philosophical search and reflection on worldview and faith."
