Description
Contributions to the Science of Mythology V2 is a book written by F. Max Muller, a German-born philologist and orientalist. This book is a compilation of his research on the origins and evolution of myths from various cultures around the world. Muller examines the similarities and differences between myths from different regions and provides insights into the psychological and social functions of myths in human societies. The book also explores the role of language in the development of myths and the ways in which myths have been transmitted through oral and written traditions. Muller's work is considered a seminal contribution to the field of comparative mythology and has had a significant impact on the study of religion, anthropology, and folklore. This second volume of the book contains additional research and analysis on mythological themes and motifs.1897. Other volumes in this set include ISBN number(s): 0766177254. Volume 2 of 2. There is nothing more ancient in the world than language. The history of man begins, not with rude flints, rock temples or pyramids, but with language. The second stage is represented by myths as the first attempts at translating the phenomena of nature into thought. The third stage is that of religion or the recognition of moral powers, and in the end of one moral power behind and above all nature. The fourth and last is philosophy, or a critique of the powers of reason in their legitimate working on the data of experience.
