Myth in Primitive Psychology. Illustrated

"Myth in Primitive Psychology" by Bronisław Malinowski is a significant anthropological work that delves into the role of myths in shaping the psychology of primitive societies. Published in 1926, the book draws on Malinowski's extensive fieldwork, particularly among the Trobriand Islanders, to explore the deep-seated cultural significance of myths. Malinowski argues that myths play a crucial role in addressing psychological and emotional needs within these societies, serving as a means of expression and resolution for individual and collective experiences. By examining the intricate connection between myths and the human psyche, Malinowski contributes valuable insights into the understanding of primitive cultures and their symbolic systems. The book remains influential in the field of anthropology, offering a nuanced perspective on the cultural functions of myths in shaping primitive psychology.
