Synopsis

The Golden Bough: a Study in Magic and Religion by the famous British anthropologist James George Fraser is a serious anthropological work on primitive beliefs and witchcraft activities. The original book consists of twelve volumes and collects a wealth of information. It is called the "Encyclopedia of Anthropology". His wife, Lily Fraser, extracted folk tales, myths and legends from all over the world from the twelve volumes of "The Golden Bough", and wrote it in beautiful words into this popular read "Golden Leaves: Stories from the Golden Bough" that is suitable for all ages. Many of these wonderful stories were not included in the popular one-volume version of The Golden Bough. The illustrations in this book are drawn by the famous British illustrator H. M. Brock (Henry Matthew Brock, 1875-1960).

Reader comments

Because I read "The Golden Bough" first and then read this book, my evaluation may not be fair. "It's tasteless to eat, but it's a pity to throw it away." This is my only feeling after reading this book. It can only be used as a supplement to "The Golden Bough", maybe not, maybe it is just a trailer for "The Golden Bough". In short, those who have read "The Golden Bough" do not need to read this book again. The overall arrangement is still remarkable, but the gems come first. After watching this preview, let's go watch "The Golden Bough".

No Need to Push Anymore, I Have Already Withdrawn from the Circle (Please Read the Book About Border Prison Bus)

The protagonist group only needs Twelve Sinners + Dante (at most + Vergil + Charon, not Sinner No. 14, Sinner No. 0), No moon meter system, no works about MiHoYo (such as Genshin Impact, Bent Iron, etc.), No moon meter OC, you can do it without a library.
