Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: English academic Edward Burnett Tylor (1832–1917) was the first Professor of Anthropology at the University of Oxford. Tylor, who conducted fieldwork in Mexico during the mid-1850s, maintained an evolutionary view of the development of culture and religion. He posited that animism, or the belief in spirits, formed the original basis of religion.
