""What Is Religion?"" is a book written by Wilhelm Bousset, a German theologian, and scholar of the New Testament. The book explores the concept of religion and attempts to define it by analyzing its various aspects. Bousset argues that religion is a universal human phenomenon that encompasses beliefs, practices, and institutions that are concerned with the sacred or the divine. He also delves into the historical development of religion, tracing its origins in prehistoric times and its evolution through different cultures and civilizations. Bousset examines the role of religion in society and its impact on human behavior, morality, and ethics. Furthermore, he explores the relationship between religion and other aspects of human experience, such as art, literature, and philosophy. The book is an important contribution to the field of religious studies and provides a comprehensive overview of the nature and significance of religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
