Kultur und praktische Vernunft
ISBN: 9783518287392 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 1994 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Sahlins beginnt mit einer Beschreibung der Beschränkungen des Historischen Materialismus bei der Analyse sogenannter primitiver Gesellschaften. Danach sieht es so aus, als ob Marxismus und Strukturalismus isolierte, jeweils für einen Teilbereich gültige theoretische Erklärungen wären - der Marxismus sich auf die westliche und der Strukturalismus sich auf die übrige Welt bezöge. Im zweiten Kapitel zeigt Sahlins jedoch, daß die den Marxismus und die Kulturtheorie trennenden Punkte tief in die Geschichte des ethnologischen Denkens hineinreichende Analogien aufweisen. In dieser Geschichte...

Neue Wissenschaft des verwunschenen Universums
ISBN: 9783751820028 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 271 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Was, wenn wir nicht nur niemals modern gewesen sind, sondern Geisterwesen, Ahnen und Götter nach wie vor unter uns leben? Dann würde es sich bezahlt machen, von jenen zu lernen, die ihre Existenz immer schon anerkannt haben: immanentistische Gesellschaften. Mit diesem Begriff bezeichnet Marshall Sahlins Gesellschaften, die sowohl historisch als auch geografisch den größeren Teil der Menschheit ausmachen - und die Geister als reale Personen betrachten, als Metamenschen, die mit den Menschen in einer kosmischen Gemeinschaft leben, mit ihnen interagieren und ihr Schicksal beeinflussen....

Apologies to Thucydides: Understanding History as Culture and Vice Versa
ISBN: 9780226103822 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Thucydides' classic work on the history of the Peloponnesian War is the root of Western conceptions of history--including the idea that Western history is the foundation of everyone else's. Here, Marshall Sahlins takes on Thucydides and the conceptions of history he wrought with a groundbreaking new book that shows what a difference an anthropological concept of culture can make to the writing of history. Sahlins begins by confronting Thucydides' account of the Peloponnesian War with an analogous "Polynesian War," the fight for the domination of the Fiji Islands (1843-55) between a great...

Culture and Practical Reason
ISBN: 9780226733616 / Angielski / Miękka / 1978 / 259 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "The main thrust of this book is to deliver a major critique of materialist and rationalist explanations of social and cultural forms, but the in the process Sahlins has given us a much stronger statement of the centrality of symbols in human affairs than have many of our 'practicing' symbolic anthropologists. He demonstrates that symbols enter all phases of social life: those which we tend to regard as strictly pragmatic, or based on concerns with material need or advantage, as well as those which we tend to view as purely symbolic, such as ideology, ritual, myth, moral codes, and the like....

Stone Age Economics
ISBN: 9781138702615 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 16-18 dni roboczych Since its first publication over forty years ago Marshall Sahlins's Stone Age Economics has established itself as a classic of modern anthropology and arguably one of the founding works of anthropological economics. Ambitiously tackling the nature of economic life and how to study it comparatively, Sahlins radically revises traditional views of the hunter-gatherer and so-called primitive societies, revealing them to be the original "affluent society." Sahlins examines notions of production, distribution and exchange in early communities and examines the link between...

What Kinship Is-And Is Not
ISBN: 9780226214290 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this pithy two-part essay, Marshall Sahlins reinvigorates the debates on what constitutes kinship, building on some of the best scholarship in the field to produce an original outlook on the deepest bond humans can have. Covering thinkers from Aristotle and Levy- Bruhl to Emile Durkheim and David Schneider, and communities from the Maori and the English to the Korowai of New Guinea, he draws on a breadth of theory and a range of ethnographic examples to form an acute definition of kinship, what he calls the mutuality of being. Kinfolk are persons who are parts of one another to the extent...

Culture in Practice: Selected Essays
ISBN: 9780942299380 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 640 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Culture in Practice collects the academic and political writings from the 1960s through the 1990s of anthropologist Marshall Sahlins. More than a compilation, Culture in Practice unfolds as an intellectual autobiography. The book opens with Sahlins's early general studies of culture, economy, and human nature. It then moves to his reportage and reflections on the war in Vietnam and the antiwar movement, the event that most strongly affected his thinking about cultural specificity. Finally, it offers his more historical and globally aware works on indigenous peoples, especially those of the...

How Natives Think: About Captain Cook, For Example
ISBN: 9780226733692 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. When Western scholars write about non-Western societies, do they inevitably perpetuate the myths of European imperialism? Can they ever articulate the meanings and logics of non-Western peoples? Who has the right to speak for whom? Questions such as these are among the most hotly debated in contemporary intellectual life. In How "Natives" Think, Marshall Sahlins addresses these issues head on, while building a powerful case for the ability of anthropologists working in the Western tradition to understand other cultures.
In recent years, these questions have arisen in debates over... When Western scholars write about non-Western societies, do they inevitably perpetuate the myths of European imperialism? Can they ever articulate the...

Confucius Institutes: Academic Malware
ISBN: 9780984201082 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In recent years, Confucius Institutes have sprung up on more than four hundred and fifty campuses worldwide, including nearly one hundred across the United States. At first glance, this seems like a benefit for everyone concerned. The colleges and universities receive considerable contributions from the Confucius Institutes head office in Beijing, including funds to cover the cost of set-up, the provision of Chinese-language instructors, and a cache of other resources. For their part, the Confucius Institutes are able to further their mission of spreading knowledge of Chinese language and...

The Western Illusion of Human Nature: With Reflections on the Long History of Hierarchy, Equality and the Sublimation of Anarchy in the West, and Comp
ISBN: 9780979405723 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Reflecting the decline in college courses on Western Civilization, Marshall Sahlins aims to accelerate the trend by reducing "Western Civ" to about two hours. He cites Nietzsche to the effect that deep issues are like cold baths; one should get into and out of them as quickly as possible. The deep issue here is the ancient Western specter of a presocial and antisocial human nature: a supposedly innate self-interest that is represented in our native folklore as the basis or nemesis of cultural order. Yet these Western notions of nature and culture ignore the one truly universal character of...

Moala: Culture and Nature on a Fijian Island
ISBN: 9780472751891 / Angielski / Miękka / 1962 / 470 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) For nearly a year Marshall D. Sahlins lived in villages on the Fijian island of Moala, learning the "way of the land," as the Moalans call their customs. From this experience he has written a book that is at once an intensive field study and a new approach to the methods of studying primitive communities. It marks an important departure from the standard trait-listing form of anthropological reports, for Sahlins does not isolate such factors as economics, kinship, and political organization. Rather he shows how closely they are interwoven in a primitive culture and why they must be...

ISBN: 9780202010991 / Angielski / Miękka / 1972 / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Ambitiously tackling the nature of economic life and how to study it comparatively, Stone Age Economics includes six studies that reflect the author's ideas on revising traditional views of hunter-gatherer and so-called primitive societies, revealing them to be the original affluent society. When it was originally published in 1974, E. Evans-Pritchard of the Times Literary Supplement noted that this classic study of anthropological economics "is rich in factual evidence and in ideas, so rich that a brief review cannot do it justice; only another book could do that."

Islands of History
ISBN: 9780226733586 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Marshall Sahlins centers these essays on islands Hawaii, Fiji, New Zealand whose histories have intersected with European history. But he is also concerned with the insular thinking in Western scholarship that creates false dichotomies between past and present, between structure and event, between the individual and society. Sahlins's provocative reflections form a powerful critique of Western history and anthropology.

On Kings
ISBN: 9780986132506 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 556 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In anthropology as much as in popular imagination, kings are figures of fascination and intrigue, heroes or tyrants in ways presidents and prime ministers can never be. This collection of essays by two of the world's most distinguished anthropologists--David Graeber and Marshall Sahlins--explores what kingship actually is, historically and anthropologically. As they show, kings are symbols for more than just sovereignty: indeed, the study of kingship offers a unique window into fundamental dilemmas concerning the very nature of power, meaning, and the human condition.
Reflecting on issues... In anthropology as much as in popular imagination, kings are figures of fascination and intrigue, heroes or tyrants in ways presidents and prime minis...
