Lévy-Bruhl studies how peoples called «primitives» conceive their own individuality and their notions of the soul, the vital principle and personality. Against Western logical thought, he describes a mentality governed by mystical participation and collective representation.
Translation by Eugenio Trías of the French original «L'âme primitive». Part of the Biblioteca de la Historia collection, number 41.
For readers of anthropology and philosophy interested in the history of ideas about the mind and non-Western societies.
