Myth, Magic and Morals is a book written by Frederick Cornwallis Conybeare that explores the intersection of mythology, magic, and morality. The book is divided into three sections, each of which examines a different aspect of this intersection. In the first section, Conybeare delves into the world of mythology, exploring the ways in which myths have shaped human understanding and culture throughout history. He discusses the origins of myths, their symbolism, and their role in shaping religious and cultural practices.In the second section, Conybeare turns his attention to magic, examining the ways in which magical practices have been used throughout history to achieve various ends. He explores the history of magic, its relationship to religion, and the various forms it has taken over time.In the final section, Conybeare explores the relationship between myth, magic, and morality. He examines the ways in which these three concepts intersect and influence one another, and argues that a deeper understanding of this relationship can help us to better understand human nature and the world around us.Throughout the book, Conybeare draws on a wide range of sources, including ancient texts, religious and philosophical traditions, and modern scholarship. His writing style is engaging and accessible, making this book an excellent resource for anyone interested in mythology, magic, and morality.1910. A study of Christian origins. In an age when old faiths are loosening their hold on us and new superstitions, like spiritualism, occultism and Christian Science, threaten to imprison our minds afresh, to inquire carefully who Jesus of Nazareth was, what were his real aims and ideas, what were the means at his command for realizing them, how the great institutions connected with his name originated and grew up. This is what Conybeare aimed to do in this book in as simple and straightforward a manner as possible, without ambiguity, but also without sarcasm or mockery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
