This study in the history of ideas consults a wide range of sources
both known and less familiar to trace the development in the 18th
century of an anthropological historiography, which aims to
ascertain the unity of human nature and human cultural history. The
study unfolds a picture of European enlightenment thinking that
reflects seemingly irrational phenomena of imagination together
with the cultural practices and mythologies of a ~uncivilizeda (TM)
peoples and thus formulates fundamental questions for modern
anthropology and the philosophy of history.
