The first volume, with the subtitle "Researches into the Development of Mythology," explores the nature and historical development of human civilization, especially as it relates to religion and mythology. In this book, Tylor makes the case that animismwhich he defines as the conviction that everything in the world possesses a soul or spirithas arisen in some form across all societies. He contends that this conviction is an essential component of human culture and that it had a major influence on the creation of mythology and religion.
