The Oriental, the Ancient and the Primitive: Systems of Marriage and the Family in the Pre-Industrial Societies of Eurasia
ISBN: 9780521367615 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 564 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Continuing the comparative survey of pre-industrial family formation undertaken in The Development of Family and Marriage in Europe (1983), Professor Goody looks in depth at kinship practice in Asia. His findings cause him to question many traditional assumptions about the "primitive" East, and he suggests that, in contrast to pre-colonial Africa, kinship practice in Asia has much in common with that prevailing in parts of pre-industrial Europe. Goody examines the transmission of productive and other property in relation both to the prevailing political economy and to family and ideological...

Development of the Family and Marriage in Europe
ISBN: 9780521289252 / Angielski / Miękka / 1983 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Around 300 A.D. European patterns of marriage and kinship were turned on their head. What had previously been the norm - marriage to close kin - became the new taboo. The same applied to adoption, the obligation of a man to marry his brother's widow and a number of other central practices. With these changes Christian Europe broke radically from its own past and established practices which diverged markedly from those of the Middle East, North Africa and Asia. In this highly original and far-reaching work Jack Goody argues that from the fourth century there developed in the northern...

The East in the West
ISBN: 9780521556736 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The East in the West reassesses Western views of Asia, which much European history and social theory has seen as "static" or "backward." Jack Goody challenges these Eurocentric assumptions, including the notion of a special Western rationality, and differences in mercantile activity. Other factors "inhibiting" the East's development, such as the role of the family, have also been greatly exaggerated, and have contributed to a misunderstanding of both Eastern and Western history and society. This wide-ranging and provocative book begins to redress the balance.

The Eurasian Miracle
ISBN: 9780745647944 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The idea of long-term European dominance is characteristic of most evolutionary theories of human culture and society in the nineteenth century. It was commonly believed that there was a natural progression from Antiquity through Feudalism to Capitalism which could not have taken place elsewhere. Today there are many who still believe that this progression was part of a European miracle that underlay the rise to global supremacy of the West.
In this short book Jack Goody systematically dismantles this Eurocentric view of the world. He argues that we need to look, not for a... The idea of long-term European dominance is characteristic of most evolutionary theories of human culture and society in the nineteenth century. It wa...

Jack Goody's new book explores the history of social anthropology as an emergent discipline in the interwar years.

Goody focuses on Britain and Africa, and draws on his own wide-ranging personal fieldwork experience.

Die zentrale Frage dieses Buches: wie kam es, daß sich etwa ab 300 nach Christus bestimmte allgemeine Züge des europäischen Erscheinungsbildes von Verwandtschaft und Ehe anders gestalten als im antiken Rom, Griechenland, in Israel und Ägypten, anders auch als in den Gesellschaften an den Mittelmeerküsten des Nahen Ostens und Nordafrikas, die diese ablösten?Mit der Beantwortung dieser Fragen versucht Goody zugleich, eine Betrachtungsweise europäischer Institutionen und Einstellungen zu begründen, die zum einen vom Beginn unserer heutigen Zeitrechnung ausgeht - von den mediterranen und...

The Domestication of the Savage Mind
ISBN: 9780521292429 / Angielski / Miękka / 1977 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Current theories and views on the differences in the 'mind' of human societies depend very much on a dichotomy between 'advanced' and 'primitive', or between 'open' and 'closed', or between 'domesticated' and 'savage', that is to say, between one of a whole variety of 'we-they' distinctions. Professor Goody argues that such an approach prevents any serious discussion of the mechanisms leading to long-term changes in the cognitive processes of human cultures or any adequate explanation of the changes in 'traditional' societies that are taking place in the world around us. In this book he...

Cooking, Cuisine and Class: A Study in Comparative Sociology
ISBN: 9780521286961 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The preparation, serving and eating of food are common features of all human societies, and have been the focus of study for numerous anthropologists - from Sir James Frazer onwards - from a variety of theoretical and empirical perspectives. It is in the context of this previous anthropological work that Jack Goody sets his own observations on cooking in West Africa. He criticises those approaches which overlook the comparative historical dimension of culinary, and other, cultural differences that emerge in class societies, both of which elements he particularly emphasises in this book. The...

ISBN: 9780521339629 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book assesses the impact of writing on human societies, both in the Ancient Near East and in twentieth-century Africa, and highlights some general features of social systems that have been influenced by this major change in the mode of communication. Such features are central to any attempt at the theoretical definition of human society and such constituent phenomena as religious and legal systems, and in this study Professor Goody explores the role of a specific mechanism, the introduction of writing and the development of a written tradition, in the explanation of some important social...
