Book excerpt: A fascinating 1899 work tracing the origins of common superstitions through time and civilizations, tracking how they evolvedSuperstitions still have a firm hold in cultures all across the world, but where did so many of them come from, and how do myths and beliefs differ from country to country? This 1899 gem sets out to determine just that, tracing superstitious origins across the world from ancient Egypt to Viking Norway to the Asian dynasties. Find out why people throw salt over their shoulder, why you should never open a theater on Friday in France, whether it is luckier to sneeze toward the left or the right, and why the number 13 is considered so unlucky.

This book was released on 2017-05-27 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Magic of the Horse Shoe is far more than a single-issue title. Lawrence' greatest work, here, delves deep into folklore in general, from ancient to modern and in multiple continents. This book contains significant inclusions regarding luck (and customs associated with the concept), the spiritual use of salt and its origins, and a bit of numerology after a fashion. It has as well interesting primary sources quoted here, dealing with things as strange as the habit of medieval people to put animals on trial.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Magic of the Horse-Shoe: With Other Folk-Lore Notes The study of the origin and history of popular customs and beliefs affords an insight, otherwise unattainable, into the operations of the human mind in early times. Superstitions, however trivial in themselves, relics of paganism though they be, and oftentimes comparable to baneful weeds, are now considered proper subjects for scientific research. While the ignorant savage is a slave to many superstitious fancies which dominate his every action, the educated man strives to be free from such a bondage, yet recognizes as profitable the study of those same beliefs. The heterogeneous character of the material drawn from so many sources has rendered it difficult, if not impossible, to follow any distinctly systematic treatment of the subject.

Book excerpt: In The Magic of the Horseshoe, Leads presents his study of the origin and history of popular customs and beliefs affords an insight, otherwise unattainable, into the operations of the human mind in early times. Superstitions, however trivial in themselves, relics of paganism though they be, and oftentimes comparable to baneful weeds, are now considered proper subjects for scientific research. While the ignorant savage is a slave to many superstitious fancies, which dominate his every action, the educated man strives to be free from such a bondage, yet recognizes as profitable the study of those same beliefs. It has been the writer's aim to make the chapter on the horseshoe as exhaustive as possible, as this attractive symbol of superstition does not appear to have received hitherto attention it merits. Also included are other folklore notes on the folklore of common salt, omens of sneezing, days of good and evil, superstitions dealing with animals, and the luck of odd numbers.
