  • A History of Christianity in England

    E O JamesBOOKHistory of Christianity in England2022

    First published in 1949, A History of Christianity in England is a kaleidoscopic view of the religious situation in England for readers and students who wish to eventually take it up as a serious study.

English religion appears neither completely Catholic, prop…

  • The Beginnings of Religion

    E O JamesBOOKBeginnings of Religion2020

    In this book, first published in 1948, an attempt has been made to provide an intelligible introduction to a somewhat complex aspect of scientific inquiry. And secondly, to construct a background of ‘primitive’ ritual and belief against which the more developed religions can be placed. This book is a valuable, early attempt at explaining the beginnings of religion from a modern scientific viewpoint.

    E O James, C A BurlandARTICLEMan1968Cited by: 2

    Alchemy is a subject of which we have all heard of, and which is yet a mystery. In some ways it belongs to the world of mystery stories from the past. We remember perhaps the shade and wonderful light of Rembrandt’s etching of the Alchemist, or the stories we read in Chaucer or Ben Jonson.

  • The Influence of Folklore On the History of Religion

    E O James, Edwin JamesARTICLENumen1962

    Prior to the scientific investigation of popular tradition both in its spiritual and material aspects, and the anthropological approach to the discipline, the interest in the subject arose out of the Romantic Movement. Thus, in the first half of the nineteenth century various attempts were made to collect and classify the tales, songs, sayings and superstitions current among the people in northern Europe, following in the wake of John Aubrey's Ro…
