The Circle and The Cross: A Study in Continuity, The Cross V2 is a book written by A. Hadrian Allcroft. This book is a study on the continuity between pre-Christian pagan religions and Christianity, specifically focusing on the symbol of the cross. The author argues that the cross was not a unique Christian symbol, but rather a symbol that was already present in pre-Christian religious traditions. The book delves into the history and symbolism of the cross, exploring its origins and how it has been used throughout history. The author also examines how the cross has been interpreted and understood in different cultures and religions. This is the second volume of the book series, and it provides a comprehensive analysis of the cross as a symbol of continuity between different religious traditions. The book is written for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the history of religion and the symbolism of the cross.1927. Other volumes in this set include ISBN number(s): 0766176193. Volume 2 of 2 - The Cross. The problem of finding the true origin of the word �������church' has drawn the author vastly further than he ever anticipated, for this origin would seem to go back far into the beginnings of European civilization, and there is as much to be said of the word's pagan as of its Christian history. Contents: Conversion of Ireland and England; Ireland; Wales; Saxon paganism; Rome and Iona; first churches; Ciric; God's acre; secular uses of the church; derivation of the word church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
