Religious Symbolism by Frederick Ernest Johnson is a comprehensive exploration of the use of symbols in various religions around the world. The book delves into the origins and meanings of symbols used in religious practices, including those found in Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and many others. The author examines the role of symbols in religious rituals, ceremonies, and traditions, as well as their significance in literature, art, and architecture. He also discusses the ways in which symbols have been interpreted and reinterpreted throughout history, and how they continue to shape our understanding of religion and spirituality today.Drawing on a wide range of sources, including sacred texts, historical documents, and contemporary scholarship, Johnson provides readers with a rich and nuanced understanding of religious symbolism. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the study of religion, art, or culture, and will be of particular interest to students and scholars of comparative religion, anthropology, and art history.Contributors Include Paul Tillich, Mordecai Kaplan, John Lafarge And Many Others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
