1991 Frazer Lecture - Godfrey Lienhardt on Frazer's Science and Sensibility

The Frazer Lecture on the legacy of James George Frazer, which Godfrey Lienhardt suggests is greater in the field of literature (through its influence on people like T.S. Eliot in 'the Waste Land’ than on the science of anthropology. The James George Frazer Memorial Lecture for 1991 was delivered at the University of Cambridge by Godfrey Lienhardt on 5 March 1992, well after he had retired from the University of Oxford. The event was chaired by Dr. Alan Macfarlane and was filmed by Humphrey Hinton, using a video 8 camera. The lecture lasts about 45 minutes. This podcast is the audio portion of the digitized video recording available online at https://www.dspace.cam.ac.uk/handle/1810/38
