Synopsis
Excerpt from The Religion of the Primitives
My career as an African missionary, interrupted by a short sojourn in Europe and another in India, began in 1877 on the eastern coast. I brought with me all the current ideas as to the black populations: fetichist peoples, without religion or morality, with no family life, stupidly adoring animals, trees, and stones.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the study of the religion of primitive peoples, as defined by the author, the Most Reverend Alexander Le Roy, as "primitive in many of their characteristics." The author acknowledges the recent interest in the scientific study of the history of religions. This book is a response to the growing skepticism and anti-Christian sentiment that has pervaded the field of religious studies and seeks to understand the beliefs and practices of non-Christian religions. The author examines the history of the science of religion, its major proponents, and the criticisms leveled against it. The book also discusses animism, totemism, fetichism, magic, and other related topics. The author argues that, by studying the religions of primitive peoples, we can gain a deeper understanding of the nature of religion itself. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religion, anthropology, or religious studies. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
