Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Myth, Magic, and Morals: A Study of Christian Origins In reprinting Myth, Magic, and Morals, a few insignificant verbal changes have been made in the text, and such clerical errors corrected as have been noticed by reviewers or detected by myself. Several additions have also been made to the "Notes" at the end of the book. In other respects this second edition is identical with the first. The favourable reception which not only the English Press, but also many foreign and colonial journals, have accorded to my book has afforded me deep satisfaction; for it shows that over wide circles truth is beginning to be more highly esteemed than so-called orthodoxy, and historical research more valued than blind adherence to obsolete tradition. There was a time - I am just old enough to remember it - when a work like my own would have aroused in the venerable circles of Oxford and Cambridge a regular heresy hunt. I have myself seen Dean Burgon and Dean Goulburn pursuing the Revisers of the English New Testament. I have beheld Dr. Pusey and Canon Liddon and the venerable Mr. Foulkes up in arms against the mild heresies of Dr. Jowett, of the authors of Lux Mundi, and of the late Vicar of Carfax. I have heard a Bishop of Salisbury declare from the University pulpit that if Freethinkers were not ill-livers they would never have been Freethinkers. I have known the late Bishop Stubbs reject a candidate for ordination because he could not accept as genuine and literal historical fact the first six chapters of Genesis.
