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. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

The Eurasian Miracle
ISBN: 9780745647937 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

The Domestication of the Savage Mind
ISBN: 9780521292429 / Angielski / Miękka / 1977 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

Technology, Tradition and the State in Africa
ISBN: 9781138585126 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 98 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Originally published in 1971 this book argues that certain aspects of traditional African social systems have been misunderstood because of a failure to appreciate what is implied by important differences between the technologies of the major traditional African states and those of Europe and Asia. Differences in the modes of agricultural production were connected with differences in other aspects of the social system such as the relations between subjects and chiefs. This means that comparisons with the feudal systems of Western Europe or the monarchies of Asiatic states have definite...

The Expansive Moment: The Rise of Social Anthropology in Britain and Africa 1918-1970
ISBN: 9780521456661 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Jack Goody's new book explores the history of social anthropology as an emergent discipline in the interwar years. It focuses on key practitioners, such as Malinowski and Fortes, and explores how far ideological approaches adopted by social anthropologists were defined by the institutions in which they developed, particularly in response to key issues of the time: colonialism, anti-Semitism and communism. Goody focuses on Britain and Africa, and draws on his own wide-ranging personal fieldwork experience.

The Theft of History
ISBN: 9780521870696 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Professor Jack Goody builds on his own previous work to extend further his highly influential critique of what he sees as the pervasive eurocentric or occidentalist biases of so much western historical writing. Goody also examines the consequent 'theft' by the West of the achievements of other cultures in the invention of (notably) democracy, capitalism, individualism, and love. The Theft of History discusses a number of theorists in detail, including Marx, Weber and Norbert Elias, and engages with critical admiration western historians like Fernand Braudel, Moses Finlay and Perry Anderson....

Development of the Family and Marriage in Europe
ISBN: 9780521289252 / Angielski / Miękka / 1983 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

ISBN: 9781844674381 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The development of romantic love, the evolution of national and regional cuisines, the globalization of Chinese food, the histories of various taboos on certain types of food and drink, the uniqueness of the European family--such are the fascinating and diverse themes Goody addresses in "Food and Love."
Starting with a sustained discussion of the debates on social development in the thought of classic theorists as well as contemporary historical and sociological notions of modernization, Goody goes on to tease out the general historical processes embedded in the most intimate recesses of...

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...

Production and Reproduction: A Comparative Study of the Domestic Domain
ISBN: 9780521290883 / Angielski / Miękka / 1977 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book is an attempt to see the development of domestic institutions, the family, marriage, conjugal roles, in relation to changes in the mode of productive activity, and specifically with the change from hoe to plough agriculture. These differences are related to societies in Africa on the one hand, and in Asia and Europe on the other. The author tries to do this in two ways. He compares information derived from a range of human societies, historical as well as contemporary, employing the impressionistic techniques of the social scientist and comparative historian. But in addition, he has...

The Logic of Writing and the Organization of Society
ISBN: 9780521339629 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...
