Hunger and Work in a Savage Tribe: A Functional Study of Nutrition Among the Southern Bantu
ISBN: 9781138157767 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Hunger and Work in a Savage Tribe examines the cultural aspects of food and eating among the Southern Bantu, taking as its starting point the bold statement 'nutrition as a biological process is more fundamental than sex'. When it was first published in 1932, with a preface by Malinowski, it laid the groundwork for sociological theory of nutrition. Richards was also among the first anthropologists to establish women's lives and the social sphere as legitimate subjects for anthropological study.

One of ten children born to a coal-mining family in Harlan County, Kentucky ("Bloody Harlan") in the turbulent 'Twenties, Audrey Richards Lowery was a prime example of the old saying, "Saturday's child must work for a living."

She describes an era in Kentucky's history and a way of life that few people today can even...

Hunger and Work in a Savage Tribe: A Functional Study of Nutrition Among the Southern Bantu
ISBN: 9781138861930 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The force of hunger in shaping human character and social structure has been largely overlooked. This omission is a serious one in the study of primitive society, in which starvation is a constant menace. This work remedies this deficiency and opens up new lines of anthropological inquiry. The whole network of social institutions is examined which makes possible the consumption, distribution, and production of food-eating customs, as well as the religion and magic of food-production.
The force of hunger in shaping human character and social structure has been largely overlooked. This omission is a serious one in the study of primit...
