The Elementary Forms of the Religious Life is a classic work of sociology written by Emile Durkheim. In this book, Durkheim examines the nature and function of religion in society, focusing on the most primitive forms of religious experience. Durkheim argues that religion is a social phenomenon that serves to bind individuals together in a common belief system, providing a sense of meaning and purpose to their lives. He explores the rituals, myths, and symbols that are central to religious practice, and shows how they reflect the social structures and values of the communities in which they are found. The book also includes a detailed analysis of totemism, a form of religious practice found in many indigenous societies, which Durkheim uses to illustrate his theories about the nature of religion. The Elementary Forms of the Religious Life is a seminal work in the field of sociology, and continues to be widely read and studied today.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1915 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
