Excerpt from The Science of Fairy Tales An Inquiry Into Fairy MythologyThe chief object of this volume is to exhibit in a manner acceptable to readers who are not specialists the application of the principles and methods which guide investigations into popular traditions to a few of the most remarkable stories embodying the Fairy superstitions of the Celtic and Teutonic peoples Some of the subjects discussed have already been dealt with by more competent inquirers But even in these cases I have sometimes been able to supply additional illustrations of the conclusions previously arrived at and occasionally I hope to carry the argument a step or two further than had been done before I have thus tried to render the following pages not wholly valueless to studentsA portion of the book incorporates the substance of some articles which I contributed to The Archaeological Review and FolkLore But these have been to a considerable extent rewritten and it is hoped that in the process wider and more accurate generalizations have been attainedMy hearty thanks are due to the various friends whose generous assistance has been recorded in the footnotes and especially to Professor Dr George Stephens the veteran antiquary of the North and Mr W G Fretton who have not measured their pains on behalf of one whose only claim on them was a common desire to pry into the recesses of the pastAbout the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books Find more at wwwforgottenbookscom

An eagerly awaited exploration of Tolkiens Silmarillion The content of Tolkiens mythology the Silmarillion has been the subject of considerable exploration and analysis for many years but the logistics of its development have been mostly ignored and deserve closer investigation Nineteenth and twentiethcentury scholars understood the term mythology as a gathering of song and story that derived from and described an identifiable world Tolkien made a continuous effort over several years to construct a comprehensive mythology to include not only the stories themselves but also the storytellers scribes and bards who were the offspring of his thought In Interrupted Music Flieger attempts to illuminate the structure of Tolkiens work allowing the reader to appreciate its broad overarching design and its careful painstaking construction She endeavors to follow the music from its beginning as an idea in Tolkiens mind through to his final but neverimplemented mechanism for realizing that idea for bringing the voices of his story to the reading public In addition Flieger reviews attempts at mythmaking in the history of English literature by Spenser Milton and Blake as well as by Joyce and Yeats She reflects on the important differences between Tolkien and his predecessors and even more between Tolkien and his contemporaries This indepth study will fascinate those interested in Tolkien and fantasy literature

Excerpt from Mythology and Rites of the British Druids Ascertained by National Documents And Compared With the General Traditions and Customs of Heathenism as Illustrated by the Most Eminent Antiquaries of Our AgeThese documents are found upon investigation to develope a system of religion which for many ages influenced the affairs of the human race not only in these islands but also in the adjacent regions of Europe and are we not to inquire in what this religion consisted and what hold it took of the mind of man Or is it an useless task to expose the origin of some absurd customs and prejudices which are still cherished in certain corners of our land But it will be said The state of society amongst the ancient Britons was rude and unpolished and their very religion opposed the progress of science and of lettersBe this admitted yet the Britons with all their barbarism and absurdities constituted a link in the great chain of history In addition to this their affairs derive some importance from their rank amongst our own progenitors their connection with our native country and the remains of their monuments which still appear in our fields A prospect of the few advantages which they enjoyed may furnish no unpleasant subject of comparison with our own times A candid exposure of that mass of error under which they groaned may inspire us with more lively gratitude for the knowledge of the true religion and perhaps suggest a seasonable caution against the indulgence of vain speculation upon sacred subjects a weakness to which the human mind is prone in every ageAbout the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books Find more at wwwforgottenbookscom
