8. Edward B. Taylor
Tylor is representative of cultural evolutionism. In his works Primitive Culture and
Anthropology, he defined the context of the scientific study of anthropology, based on the
evolutionary theories of Charles Lyell. He believed that there was a functional basis for the
development of society and religion, which he determined was universal. Tylor is considered
by many to be a founding figure of the science of social anthropology, and his scholarly works
helped to build the discipline of anthropology in the nineteenth century. He believed that
"research into the history and prehistory of man that could be used as a basis for the reform
of British society." Tylor reintroduced the term animism (faith in the individual soul or anima of
all things, and natural manifestations) into common use. He considered animism to be the
first phase of development of religions.
