See also:TYLOR, See also:EDWARD See also:BURNETT (1832- ) , See also:English anthropologist, was See also:born at See also:Camberwell, See also:London, on the 2nd of See also:October 1832, the son of See also:Joseph Tylor, a brassfounder. See also:Alfred Tylor, the geologist, was an See also:elder See also:brother. His parents were members of the Society of See also:Friends, at one of whose See also:schools, at See also:Grove See also:House, See also:Tottenham, he was educated. In 1848 he entered his See also:father's manufactory in London, but at about the See also:age of twenty he was threatened with See also:consumption and forced to abandon business. During 1855-1856 he travelled in the See also:United States of See also:America to recruit his See also:health. Proceeding in 1856 to See also:Cuba, he met See also:- HENRY

Henry See also:Christy the ethnologist, with whom he visited See also:Mexico. Tylor's association with Christy greatly stimulated his awakening See also:interest in See also:anthropology, and his visit to Mexico, with its See also:rich prehistoric remains, led him to make a systematic study of the See also:science. While on a visit to See also:Cannes he wrote a See also:record of his observations, entitled See also:Anahuac; or, Mexico and the Mexicans, See also:Ancient. and See also:Modern, which was published in 1861. In 1865 appeared Researches into the See also:Early See also:History of Mankind, which made Tylor's reputation. It showed See also:great See also:research, See also:original insight, and much constructive See also:power in the formation of systematic views. The chapters on early myths and their See also:geographical See also:distribution are especially valuable. The See also:work reached a third edition in 1878. This See also:book was followed in 1871 by the more elaborate See also:Primitive Culture: Researches into the Development of See also:Mythology, See also:Philosophy, See also:Religion, See also:Language, See also:Art and See also:Custom, which at once became the See also:standard See also:general See also:treatise on anthropology. Tylor's treatment of See also:animism (chs.xi.-xvii.) was particularly elaborate, and he first determined the limits of that See also:province of anthropology intending it to include " the general See also:doctrine of souls, and other spiritual beings." In 1881 See also:Tyler published a smaller and more popular handbook on Anthropology. His work had already met with recognition. In 1871 he was elected F.R.S., and in 1875 received the honorary degree of D.C.L. from the university of See also:- OXFORD
