Synopsis "Pagan and Christian Creeds - Their Origin and Meaning"

First published in 1921, this vintage book looks at paganism and Christianity, exploring their various connections and analysing where these similarities came from and what they mean. Edward Carpenter (1844 - 1929) was an English philosopher, poet, and pioneering activist for gay rights. He had many notable friends including the Bengali polymath Rabindranath Tagore and celebrated American poet Walt Whitman; and also corresponded with many famous figures, including Jack London, Mahatma Gandhi and Annie Besant, amongst others. Contents include: "Solar Myths and Christian Festivals", "The Symbolism of the Zodiac", "Totem-Sacraments and Eucharists", "Food and Vegetation Magic", "Magicians, Kings and Gods", "Rites of Expiation and Redemption", "Pagan Initiations and the Second Birth", "Myth of the Golden Age", "The Savior-god and the Virgin-mother", "Ritual Dancing", "The Sex-Taboo", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
