"The Crown of Thorns" is a story of the time of Christ. It is fiction of the character of legend, utilizing materials preserved in both the canonical scriptures and the Apocryphal traditions, but giving preference to the former. The hopes and beliefs of the main personalities, however, can throughout be verified by documentary evidence. The religious milieu is strictly historical, and is designed to show the way in which Christianity developed from Judaism through the Messianic hopes of the Nazarenes as interpreted by the Apostle Paul of Tarsus. "A beautifully written, well-illustrated and entertaining little book." -The Bookworm. "Though a short story it is one of singular charm and power. As a whole it is a capital instance of how legitimately and effectively for the particular purpose in view the imagination may cooperate with the historic spirit. The mood of the story is pervaded by a sentiment of exceeding delicacy and reverence. . . There is not one false note in it." -Chicago Evening Post.

The T lzeogony of Hesiod tells of the origin of the gods and invests them with definite shape; Homer introduces them as actors in his grand epics; but the popular tale of Eros and Psyche reﬂects the sentiment with which the gods were regarded, and describes the attitude of man toward the problems of life, especially that problem of problems - the mystery of death and the fate of the soul in the unknown be yond.

The orthodox Greek religion consisted in the performance of certain rites, which were administered by the priests in the name of the state for the public benefit. Neither faith nor morality was required; the sole thing of importance was to accord to the gods their due, according to established tradition, and thus to fulfil the duties men owe to the invisible powers, upon whose beneficence their welfare depends.
