Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Jane Harrison examines the festivals of ancient Greek religion
to identify the primitive "substratum" of ritual and its
persistence in the realm of classical religious observance and
literature. In Harrison's preface to this remarkable book, she
writes that J. G. Frazer's work had become part and parcel of her
"mental furniture" and that of others studying primitive religion.
Today, those who write on ancient myth or ritual are bound to say
the same about Harrison. Her essential ideas, best developed and
most clearly put in the Prolegomena, have never been eclipsed.

This book is part of the TREDITION CLASSICS series. The creators of
this series are united by passion for literature and driven by the
intention of making all public domain books available in printed
format again - worldwide. At tredition we believe that a great book
never goes out of style. Several mostly non-profit literature
projects provide content to tredition. To support their good work,
tredition donates a portion of the proceeds from each sold copy. As
a reader of a TREDITION CLASSICS book, you support our mission to
save many of the amazing works of world literature from oblivion.
