| Summary | "The Sex Worship and Symbolism of Primitive Races: An Interpretation" by Sanger Brown is a scholarly publication written in the early 20th century. The work examines the historical significance of sex worship among primitive races and its implications for understanding psychological development. It explores how this form of worship has evolved over time and how it relates to the broader concepts of religion and mental health. At the start of the text, the author sets the stage for an exploration of how psychiatry can benefit from studying primitive beliefs and practices, particularly those surrounding sexuality. Brown suggests that the examination of sex worship can shed light on the collective psyche of primitive communities, illustrating a connection between ancient rites and modern psychological phenomena. Through references to historical sources and examples from various cultures, he posits that primitive sex worship was not merely a practice of the past but a significant expression of human reproductive instincts that has influenced contemporary beliefs and societal structures.
