Dreams And Primitive Culture: A Lecture (1918) is a book written by William Halse Rivers, a British anthropologist and psychiatrist. The book is a transcript of a lecture delivered by Rivers at the University of Cambridge in 1918. In this book, Rivers explores the role of dreams in primitive cultures. He argues that dreams are an important aspect of primitive cultures, and that they play a significant role in shaping the beliefs, customs, and rituals of these societies. Rivers draws on his extensive fieldwork among various indigenous peoples, including the Melanesians, to provide examples of how dreams are interpreted and used in different cultures.Rivers also discusses the relationship between dreams and mental illness, and how primitive cultures understand and treat mental illness. He argues that in many cases, mental illness is seen as a spiritual or supernatural affliction, and that dreams can be used to diagnose and treat these conditions.Overall, Dreams And Primitive Culture: A Lecture (1918) provides a fascinating insight into the role of dreams in primitive cultures, and how these cultures understand and interpret the world around them. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in anthropology, psychology, or the study of dreams.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
