The book examines ancient symbols—like the lotus, swastika, tree of life, and serpent—and traces their transformations through Indian, Egyptian, Greek, and Christian traditions. D’Alviella presents a scholarly, comparative study rooted in archaeology and anthropology, while Birdwood’s contributions emphasize India’s artistic and symbolic heritage. Together, they highlight the shared human impulse toward symbolic expression and the continuity of spiritual ideas across time and geography.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBook details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Goblet D’Alviella and Sir George Birdwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback \u0026amp; Hardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 331\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gyan Books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1894\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs The Migration of Symbols available in paperback or hardcover?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes – \u003cem\u003eThe Migration of Symbols\u003c\/em\u003e is available here in Paperback and Hardcover; pick the one you want from the options above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat language is this edition in?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edition is in English.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho wrote The Migration of Symbols?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Migration of Symbols is written by Goblet D’Alviella and Sir George Birdwood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow fast does Bookston ship?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShipping is free on every order, with no minimum.
