Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics, Vol. 1: An-Art (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics There is at the present time an unusual demand for works of reference. It may be due partly to a higher general standard of education, increasing the number of readers, and compelling teachers, whether they are writers or speakers, to verify their references.' But it may be due also to the great increase of knowledge in our time, We must possess ourselves of dictionaries and encyclopaedias, because it is not possible otherwise to have at our command the vast stores of learning which have accumulated. But the enormous increase of knowledge in our time has not only created a demand for general works of reference; it has also made known the necessity for dictionaries or encyclopaedias of a more special character. Musicians have found the need Of a Dictionary of Music, painters of Painting, engineers of Engineering, and they have had their wants supplied. The present work is an attempt to meet the necessity for an Encyclopaedia of Religion and Ethics.

Excerpt from Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics, Vol. 3: Burial-Confessions This term, originally employed only for the beliefs of the north-east of Europe and of Asia, has in comparatively recent times received an extended signification, which has been cd hered to in the work of the Moscow scholar Mikhailovski on this subject - a work which, unfortunately, has not been completed. Taking a general, ethnolo 'cal point of view, he includes as Shamanism the beliefs of he American Indians and the ab origines of Africa, Polynesia, etc. Without here entering into an unsuitable polemic, we shall merely remark that, for con venience' sake and to be strictly methodical, we shall speak of Shamanism only in the restricted sense of the word. We do not dispute that in the New World and in southern countries we meet with forms of belief at the same stage of development as contemporary Shamanism; but, indeed, we also know that there exists a whole series of monotheistic religions, whose monotheism does not prevent their differing from one another in their conce tions about the Deity and His relations to men and to the wor d, in ritual, forms of worship, and ideas about the destiny of mankind, etc. One must not lose sight of the fact that in the various beliefs of the Siberian tribes a very close connexion is noticeable, and, likewise, there can be observed an uninterrupted identity in the foundations of their mythology and in their rites, even extending as far as the nomenclature all of which gives one the right to suppose that these beliefs are the result of the joint work of the intellectual activity of the whole north of Asxa. The Buriat Shamanism is one of the most highly developed forms, but, in order to elucidate certain rites and beliefs, we must draw parallels from other Shaman beliefs.
