A Shortened version of an address by Sir James George Frazer
Read by T. S. Gregory
In May 1908 Sir James Frazer spoke, at the University of Liverpool, on his conception oi ' the latest-born of the sciences and of the pressing need for its furtherance. 'In another quarter of a century,' he said, ' there will be little or nothing of the old savage life left to record.' This reading is one of a group of programmes to mark the centenary of Sir James Frazer 's birth.
