Seller: Hamelyn, Madrid, M, Spain
Condition: Muy bueno. : Introducción a la mitología, originalmente publicado en 1921, presenta una visión general completa de las formas tradicionales de narrativa que, para nuestros antepasados primitivos, servían como religión y ciencia. Además de relatar cuentos de todo el mundo, Spence explicó las muchas diferencias en las cosmovisiones primitivas y modernas. Según Spence, temas como el animismo, aunque ahora casi ausentes de nuestro pensamiento, todavía nos iluminan en la actualidad, "así como los animales y plantas fósiles tienen sus representantes vivos hoy en día, también las ideas y concepciones que representan esta forma petrificada de religión y ciencia todavía florecen en nuestras supersticiones actuales y nuestras creencias actuales".
