Description:
Oxford University Press, London, 1941. First Edition. Hardcover (Original Cloth). Very Good Condition/No Dust Jacket. Robert Ranulph Marett (13 June 1866 – 18 February 1943) was a British ethnologist and a proponent of the British Evolutionary School of cultural anthropology. Founded by Marett's older colleague, Edward Burnett Tylor, it asserted that modern primitive societies provide evidence for phases in the evolution of culture, which it attempted to recapture via comparative and historical methods. Marett focused primarily on the anthropology of religion. Studying the evolutionary origin of religions, he modified Tylor's animistic theory to include the concept of mana. Marett's anthropological teaching and writing career at Oxford University spanned the early 20th century before World War Two. He trained many notable anthropologists. He was a colleague of John Myres, and through him, studied Aegean archaeology. Robert R. Marett was born in Saint… Read More

Hambledon and London, London, 2004. First Edition. Hardcover (Original Cloth). Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. Norwich remained the second largest city in England until the eighteenth century.

It brings out Norwich's individuality and shows how it became the city it is today. While Norwich changed and developed in many ways over the centuries, its textiles could not compete with those of the northern boom towns of the Industrial Revolution. Instead it found a role as a regional and banking capital. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 604 pages. Binding is tight, covers and spine fully intact. in archive acetate film protection.

Blackthorn Publishing Ltd, London, 2008. First Edition. Softcover. Near Fine Condition. Signed by Author. Signed on the title page with the words: "Best Wishes from Ronald Rayner". The story shows why Joseph, the Grand Uncle of Jesus, brought the boy Jesus together with his own son to the Druidic Centre at Glastonbury in Britain to be educated. It is a fact that the Druid Cors in Britain offered the best education in the world at that time, and that many world leaders sent their sons and daughters to the Druid schools in Britain, the birthplace of Druidism. The book presents indisputable accounts from history revealing that Joseph of Arimathea returned to Britain in A.D. 37 to build and establish the very first Christian Church in the world outside Jerusalem at Glastonbury, at a time when Rome was persecuting and murdering Christians. This book tells of how the Disciples of Jesus travelled on Joseph's trade ships to Britain to support his first Christian Church in Britain, and to… Read More
