The Golden Bough: A Study in Magic and Religion, Volume 1

Sir James George Frazer's comparative study of anthropology, folklore, and myth has been an influential work for writers and a standard text for scholars since its original publication, in several volumes, in the early part of the 20th century. Frazer was a professor of social anthropology and a classicist. (This edition was originaly listed as "the Arabic illustrated edition for the four parts of the book, published by the General Egyptian Book Organization. However, the ISBN and cover image are for the Wordsworth Reference edition in English and the record has been accordingly updated.)
