James George Frazer

    1 janvier 1854 – 7 mai 1941

    Sir James George Frazer fut un anthropologue social écossais dont l'œuvre a considérablement influencé les premières étapes des études modernes sur la mythologie et la religion comparée. Sa contribution la plus renommée a documenté et détaillé méticuleusement les similitudes frappantes entre les croyances magiques et religieuses à travers le monde. Frazer a proposé une théorie de l'évolution intellectuelle humaine, suggérant que la croyance progresse à travers des étapes distinctes : de la magie primitive, à la religion, pour finalement aboutir à la science. Ce cadre évolutif a profondément façonné la compréhension du développement de la société humaine.
