Autoren-Porträt von James George Frazer
Sir James George Frazer (1854-1941) was a prominent Scottish social anthropologist influential in the early stages of the modern studies of mythology and comparative religion. His work is characterized by a comprehensive synthesis of historical data and a comparative approach that transcended the boundaries of single-cultural studies. Frazer is best known for his magnum opus, 'The Golden Bough,' a study in comparative religion and mythology that charted the evolution of human belief systems across different cultures. In 'Studies in Greek Scenery, Legend and History,' Frazer offered a meticulously researched insight into the interconnectedness of Greek landscapes with the myths and historical events that they inspired or witnessed. His literary style is marked by erudition and an encyclopedic breadth, as he wove together strands from anthropology, classics, and cultural history. He was a fellow of Trinity College Cambridge, where he developed much of his seminal work. Frazer's influence extended beyond academia into literature and psychology, impacting figures such as T.S. Eliot and Sigmund Freud. His scholarly endeavours provided a template for future generations of researchers and solidified his place in the pantheon of anthropological and classical scholarship.
