Lewis Spence Quotes

In My View The Study Of Fairy Origins Assumes A Greater Degree Of Importance Than Popular Opinion Is Wont To Concede To It. Indeed, The Ideas Associated With It Strike At The Very Roots Of Human Belief And Primitive Methods Of Reasoning. It Is Scarcely To Be Questioned That The Explanation Of Fairy Origins Is Of The Utmost Value To The Better Comprehension Of Primitive Religion. Later It Will Be Made Clear That, For The Writer At Least, The Whole Tradition Of Faerie Reveals Quite Numerous And Excellent Proofs Of Its Former Existence As A Primitive And Separate Cult And Faith, More Particularly As Regards Its Appearance And Tradition In These Islands.
