Je considere ici l'oeuvre classique de E.B. Tylor intitulee La Culture Primitive, et plus particulierement les aspects de cette oeuvre qui traitent de l'animisme. Je discute quelques-uns des ouvrages critiques sur l'animisme et demontre que la plupart de ces critiques ont en fait mal interprete les intentions originales de Tylor concernant sa 'theorie des origines' et le sens qu'il donne a la notion d''esprit', entre autres. Ensuite, tournant mon attention sur la theorie du mythe avancee par Tylor et la demarche de son raisonnement sur l'animisme, j'offre une re-lecture centree sur le discours et les diverses pratiques religieuses conjointes au sein de societes particulieres. En conclusion, j'indique la pertinence que peut avoir cette re-lecture de Tylor pour les etudes contemporaines sur l'animisme et les religions modernes
