Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Primitive Folk-Moots: Or Open-Air Assemblies in Britain And if with these fragments of antiquity, I have endeavoured to build a fabric which, as I submit, gives us an important picture of primitive × if my argument throughout is that these open-air assemblies are survivals of primitive open-air assemblies, I am dependent for proofs of this argument upon the evidence given by the collected examples as they stand in English history or tradition at this present day, instead of the more strictly scientific data afforded by an archaeological arrangement of the primitive features only of each example. If, therefore, my conclusions be not so scientifically arranged as they might be, let me plead my adherence, to the necessity of placing on record, very clearly, the facts by which the subject may hereafter be more fully worked up, and which, more than anything else, are essential to a first study. And if the use to which I have ventured to put these fragments of olden times be not acceptable to the purely antiquarian scholar, let him remember that the fragments themselves are quite visible to him, and are uninjured. Thus, therefore, I trust that the student of primitive culture and the antiquary may both be able to see some merit in my work as a useful contribution of materials rightly and scientifically placed for future use. I find that a few typographical errors have crept into the text, which I have noted in a table of errata;. and perhaps in mitigation, not in excuse, of this default, I may plead that my work has been done after the busy day of official life is over.
