German-born Sanskritist and philologist Max M ller (1823 1900) was
a pioneer in the field of comparative mythology and religion.
Settling in England in 1846, during his distinguished career he
served as Taylorian professor of modern European languages, curator
of the Bodleian Library and Oxford's first professor of comparative
philology. The content of this book was originally presented as
part of a lecture series delivered at the University of Glasgow in
1893, where M ller was serving as the Gifford Lecturer. M ller's
aim in presenting these lectures was to show that the only way of
properly understanding religious phenomena was through utilising
historical method. The three volumes preceding this one focused on
'physical religion', 'natural religion' and 'anthropological
religion'; this fourth book, on theosophy, contains fifteen
lectures, the subject matter ranging from Alexandrian Christianity
and the eschatology of Plato to the journey of the soul after
death.
