Contributions to the Science of Mythology Volume 1 is a book written by F. Max Muller, a renowned scholar who contributed significantly to the study of comparative mythology. The book is a collection of essays and lectures that Muller delivered during the late 19th century, exploring the origins and evolution of myths across various cultures and civilizations. The first volume of the book covers the mythology of the Aryan nations, including the Vedic gods and goddesses of ancient India, and the myths and legends of the ancient Persians, Greeks, and Romans. Muller's work in this book is based on his extensive research of ancient texts and his deep understanding of the languages and cultures of the ancient world. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the science of mythology, highlighting the similarities and differences between various mythologies and their impact on the development of human culture and society. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of mythology, anthropology, and ancient history.1897. Other volumes in this set include ISBN number(s): 0766177262. Volume 1 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.
