Description:
This rare antique book is an illustrated 19th-century examination of the pagan gods, devils, demons and evil spirits worshipped by mankind throughout the ages – “the whole dark picture,” as the author puts it. This groundbreaking study – one of the first of its kind – also covers idols, temples, shrines and, sacred places, incantations, sacrifices, customs, legends and myths. It preceded Frazer’s Golden Bough by at least seven years.
This fascinating book has been touted as “a Thrilling Story, Very Copiously Illustrated, Describing The Thousand And One Imaginations Of The Brilliant Men Of All Ages Groping In Darkness After God; Their Conceptions Of The Terrific Powers And Mysterious Influences Of Good And Evil Spirits; The Ceremonies And Meaning Of The Myriad Forms Of Idolatrous Worship; Its Evils, Superstitions, Sacrifices, Incantations, Temples Shrines, Etc. The Whole Dark Picture Strikingly Contrasted With The Beauty And Purity Of Revealed Religion.”
ERROR’S CHAINS is an important work, one which will no doubt prove its value again and again to anyone interested in the study of comparative religions, anthropology, or magic and the occult.
The Preface states:
In all parts of his work the author has sought to present definite information, carefully arranged, truthfully told, and clearly and interestingly stated. He has aimed to show the origin, development and spread of each non-Christian religious system; and to give an account of their gods and goddesses, temples, shrines, idols, sacred places, superstitious customs, legends, myths, domestic worship and the innumerable peculiarities of their daily religious life.The work is fully illustrated by accurate, and in many cases, expensive engravings. The book is not made merely to sell. Sensational statements and mere padding have been neither added nor borrowed. The author has not drawn upon his imagination in the least. He has told a story which, though sometimes stranger than fiction, is nevertheless solid fact and not baseless fancy.
Let it be remembered that this is a pioneer work. The author has had to blaze his pathway through a trackless forest. He has had no guide.
It has been the purpose of the author and the publishers to place the subject-matter of this volume within the ready reach of all who consult it. An exhaustive Table of Contents has been given therefore, in which the chapter titles and all the sub-headings of the chapters will be found. A full index of the proper names and principal topics of the book is also added, by means of which it is believed any desired subject treated in the volume can readily be found. By such means as these the book has been made as complete and as useful as patient labor can make it.
