Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The academic study of Indigenous Religions developed historically from missiological and anthropological sources, but little analysis has been devoted to this classification within departments of religious studies. Evaluating this assumption in the light of case studies drawn from Zimbabwe, Alaska and shamanic traditions, and in view of current debates over 'primitivism', James Cox mounts a defence for the scholarly use of the category 'Indigenous Religions'.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Religion: A Sketch of Primitive Religious Beliefs and Practices, and of the Origin and Character of the Great Systems The science of religion, though of such recent origin, has already passed beyond its earliest stage, as a reference even to its earlier and its later names will show. Comparative Religion was the title given at first to the combined study of various religions. What had to be done was to compare these systems. The facts about them had to be collected, the systems arranged according to the best information pro curable, and then laid side by side, that it might be seen what features they had in common and what each had to distinguish it from the others. Work of this kind is still abundantly necessary. The collection of materials and the specifying of the'similarities and dissimilarities of the various faiths will long occupy many workers. This science, like every other, begins with classification. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religions of Primitive Peoples: 1896-1897 On the 24th of December, 1891, fifteen persons interested in promoting the historical study of religions united in issuing a circular-letter, inviting a conference in the Council Chambers of the Historical Society of Philadelphia, on the 30th of the same month, for the purpose of instituting "popular courses in the History of Religions, somewhat after the style of the Hibbert lectures in England, to be delivered annually by the best scholars of Europe and this country, in various cities, such as Baltimore, Boston, Brooklyn, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, and others."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Primitive Religions: Being an Introduction to the Study of Religions, With an Account of the Religious Beliefs of Uncivilised Peoples, Confucianism, Taoism (China), And Shintoism (Japan) Subject of Religions, renders any extended preface to this volume unnecessary; but it is desirable to state that it is part of a series dealing in succession with the whole of the important existing and extinct religions of the world. In this volume we contemplate principally the simpler forms of religion, some scarcely deserving the name, but yet in some cases reaching a complexity and a minuteness of ceremony, as on the West Coast of Africa, and among the ancient Aztecs and Peruvians, which foreshadow some of the more elaborate systems. Here are materials for studying the most pervading ideas on which religion is based, the power of the unseen and the inexplicable, the longing for communion with unseen Powers, the desire to propitiate those which can injure or bless.

Book excerpt: In this book, first published in 1948, an attempt has been made to provide an intelligible introduction to a somewhat complex aspect of scientific inquiry. And secondly, to construct a background of ‘primitive’ ritual and belief against which the more developed religions can be placed. This book is a valuable, early attempt at explaining the beginnings of religion from a modern scientific viewpoint.
