Summary | "Religions of Primitive Peoples" by Daniel G. Brinton is a scholarly work focusing on the study of early religious beliefs and practices, written in the late 19th century. The text aims to explore the origins, methods, and definitions associated with the scientific study of primitive religions, emphasizing a comparative approach to understanding various belief systems across different cultures. The opening of the book sets the stage for a series of lectures that will investigate primitive religions using historical, comparative, and psychological methods. Brinton discusses the fundamental characteristics of "primitive" peoples and their beliefs, emphasizing that religion is a universal trait of humanity, present in every known culture. He introduces the idea that these religious expressions arise not from theological constructs, but from innate human thought processes and experiences, which he aims to unravel throughout the lectures.
