Focusing on the shared elements of religious belief, this work posits that ancient religions centered on fertility cults and the worship of a sacred king, often involving sacrificial practices. Published in 1890, it introduced a modernist perspective on religion, significantly influencing contemporary European literature and thought. The exploration of these themes provides a foundational understanding of the interplay between mythology and societal structures.
