Synopsis
Uncover the roots of myth and memory in a cross-cultural study of migration, class, and exchange.
This book surveys how ancient beliefs and traditions emerged from the movement of peoples and contact between cultures. It challenges simple origins theories by examining the roles of different social groups and the transmission of ideas across borders.
- Explore how migrations and intercultural exchange shaped early myths, rituals, and institutions
- See how class and labor influenced the development of religious and mythic ideas
- Consider the idea that different civilizations arose from complex conflicts between races and cultures
- Learn how scholars from the International Folk-Lore Congress framed and debated these questions
