Watched the CtoC videos, while I should have been out in the garden working. Just couldn't tear myself away.

Interesting that Robert Temple, who's being interviewed by Noori here, wrote an introduction for an abridgment of Frazer's The Golden Bough. Simon & Schuster completely rewrote what he had written, published under his name and never paid him.

I can see why S&S didn't like his introduction. It is far too free-spirited and speculative to pass institutional muster. Here's a excerpt from the introduction that Temple originally wrote:

Therefore a survey of the natural history of human belief, which is what Frazer’s work is, has a value for us which cannot be underestimated. In making Frazer accessible to ordinary readers and providing illustrations (his books were unillustrated), I hope that the benefits of Frazer’s wisdom can be made available to that wide audience which he has always deserved. There can be no more fascinating pursuit than the study of ourselves, some might say. It is time now to bend over the twilit and ageless pool in the forest of human belief and study our features, to gasp like Narcissus at that sight of ourselves which the reflection reveals. For there we are, bedecked in a strange variety of changeable forms, sometimes with feathers, sometimes garlanded, with paint on our faces, sometimes suffering with anguish and fear, sometimes glowing with divine ecstatic triumph. This is the parade of human history seen from the inside: the successions of beliefs and rituals which have marked our path through time. Our past beliefs are the puppy dogs which follow along yapping at our heels as we progress to high plateaux, demanding that we look back and acknowledge them. If we deny them, they will bite our ankles.
