Excerpt from Christ and Other Masters: An Historical Inquiry Into Some of the Chief Parallelisms and Contrasts Between Christianity and the Religious Systems of the Ancient World
'I have laid it down as an invariable maxim constantly to follow historical tradition, and to hold fast by that clue, even many things, in the testimony and declarations of tradition, appear strange and almost inexplicable, or at least enigmatical; for so soon as in the investigation of ancient history we let slip that thread of Ariadne, we can find no outlet from the labyrinth of fanciful theories, and the chaos of clashing opinions.' - F. von Schlegel, Phil. of Hist. p. 81, Lond. 1847.
