Immortal Man

C.E. Vulliamy

4.9/5 (11757 ratings)

Description:T HE subject of this book is the belief in the immortality of man. It has been my intention to trace that belief in the evidence afforded by prehistoric burials, and to describe its manifestation among primitive races. I have sought to discover in what way we arc influenced, at the present time, by primitive custom, and to examine our attitude towards the problem of survival. But I have no wish to present any theory of my own, and if particular views seem to have been given undue prominence, that must be set down to the unconscious bias from which no writer is ever free.Where I am specially indebted to any one author, or where it has seemed necessary to state the source of my information, I have incorporated acknowledgment or reference in the text.The bibliography contains the titles of all the important works which I have consulted. In common with every student of primitive man, I owe much to the writings of Spencer and Gillen, Howitt, Rivers, Sir J. G. Frazer, and A. R. Brown. For translations of Egyptian texts, and for information on many points relating to the beliefs of ancient Egypt, I am indebted to the works of Sir Wallis Budge.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
