Offering and Sacrifice (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the historical roots of religious ritual, unlocking the significance and origins of practices found in many of today's faiths. The author argues that sacrifice, at its core, represents a shared meal eaten with the divine. They trace the evolution of sacrifice from the offering of everyday food to a ritualistic practice, rooted in the belief that spirits inhabit elements of the natural world. The book also examines the concept of 'substitution', where an animal, and not a human, would be sacrificed, as well as the role of the priest in the sacrificial process, who through consecration becomes part of the sacrifice itself. Providing a deep understanding of the origins of ritual sacrifice, this book offers new perspectives on the historical development of religious beliefs and practices that will appeal to anyone interested in the history of religion and the evolution of human spirituality. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
