Especially Max Müller’s essay on _Comparative Mythology_ (_Chips_ etc., II. 1), and the ninth in the second series of his _Lectures on the Science of Language_; and Cox’s introductions to his _Manual of Mythology_, _Tales of the Gods and Heroes_, and _Tales of Thebes and Argos_. Footnote 2: Both in England and in France the attempt has been made with much taste to introduce the results of comparative mythology in the instruction of youth; in England by Rev. G.W. Cox in his _Tales of the Gods and Heroes_, _Tales of Thebes and Argos_, _Tales from Greek Mythology_, _Manual of Mythology in the form of question and answer_, 1867, and _Tales of Ancient Greece_, 1870, the last two of which have just been translated into Hungarian, and published by the Franklin Society; in France by Baudry and Delerot (Paris 1872). Still more recently the results of comparative mythology have also been summarised in two excellent books for children by Edward Clodd, _The Childhood of the World: a simple account of Man in Early Times_, 1873, and _The Childhood of Religion; embracing a simple account of the birth and growth of Myths and Legends_, 1875. Footnote 3: This psychological uniformity of all races of men is independent of the question of the monogenetic or polygenetic origin of races. The psychological uniformity of different races is especially conspicuous when we observe and compare individuals of the separate races in infancy, when the distinctions produced by history, education, instruction, etc., are not yet present (see Frohschammer, _Das Christenthum und die moderne Naturwissenschaft_, Vienna 1868, p. 208.) When we are considering the growth of mankind in general, the stage when myths are created corresponds to the infancy of the individual.
