Revival: Primitive Mentality (1923)

English

By (author): Lucien Levy-Bruhl

Translated by: Lilian A. Clare

The primitive mind does not differentiate the supernatural from reality, but rather uses mystical participation to manipulate the world. According to Bruhl, moreover, the primitive mind doesn't address contradictions. The modern mind, by contrast, uses reflection and logic. Bruhl believed in a historical and evolutionary teleology leading from the primitive mind to the modern mind.
