Alan W. Watts

Description:Jacket illustrations is the Paschal Candle, lighted on Easter Eve & left burning for 40 days to represent the risen of Christ on earth. The three rings stand for God, the Holy Trinity. The flame stands for the Holy Spirit. The five nails in the candles are the five wounds of Christ. The water stands for the original substance out of which the world was made. The Candle in the water is salvation--Christ uniting the world with God. "So far as I am aware, a book of this kind has never been attempted before, surprising as that may be in view of the important place which Easter holds in the Christian year. There is an abundance of works on the Resurrection of Christ, on the mythologies of the death & resurrection gods & on folkways where those peculiar to Easter are noted. But there is no general description of the history & celebration of Easter even in its Christian context alone, much less one which takes into account its pre-Christian types."--from the textWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
