Jacob's Tears: The Priestly Work of Reconciliation
ISBN: 9780199210640 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Who is Israel? Who were the priestly authors of the Pentateuch? This anthropological reading of the Bible, by a world-renowned scholar, starts by asking why the Book of Numbers lists the twelve tribes of Israel seven times. Mary Douglas argues that the editors, far from being a separate elite unconcerned with their congregation's troubles, cherished a political agenda, a religious protest against the government of Judah's exclusionary policies. The priestly theology depends on God's Covenant with all the descendants of Jacob, including the sons of Joseph. It would have been unpatriotic, even...

Thinking in Circles: An Essay on Ring Composition
ISBN: 9780300167856 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Many famous antique texts are misunderstood and many others have been completely dismissed, all because the literary style in which they were written is unfamiliar today. So argues Mary Douglas in this controversial study of ring composition, a technique which places the meaning of a text in the middle, framed by a beginning and ending in parallel. To read a ring composition in the modern linear fashion is to misinterpret it, Douglas contends, and today's scholars must reevaluate important antique texts from around the world. Found in the Bible and in writings from as far afield as...

How Institutions Think (Routledge Revivals)
ISBN: 9780415684781 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. First published in 1986 Mary Douglas' theory of institutions uses the sociological theories of Emile Durkheim and Ludwig Fleck to determine not only how institutions think, but also the extent to which thinking itself is dependent upon institutions. Different kinds of institutions allow individuals to think different kinds of thoughts and to respond to different emotions. It is just as difficult to explain how individuals come to share the categories of their thought as to explain how they ever manage to sink their private interests for a common good. Douglas forewarns us that... First published in 1986 Mary Douglas' theory of institutions uses the sociological theories of Emile Durkheim and Ludwig Fleck to determine not onl... |

In the Wilderness: The Doctrine of Defilement in the Book of Numbers
ISBN: 9780199245413 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Following on from the paperback edition of Leviticus as Literature, this is the revised paperback edition of Mary Douglas's classical account of the Book of Numbers. Up to now Bible scholars have tended to dismiss Numbers as a chaotic mix of narrative and laws. Mary Douglas argues that, like Leviticus, Numbers is actually a highly complex book arranged in a regular ring structure which plots the narratives and laws into 12 parts. She argues that it is only through an understanding of the ring formation of these parts that one can fully appreciate the meanings behind this complex work.

Leviticus as Literature
ISBN: 9780199244195 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This first full-scale account of Leviticus by a world renowned anthropologist presents the biblical work as a literary masterpiece. Seen in an anthropological perspective Leviticus has a mystical structure which plots the book into three parts corresponding to the three parts of the desert tabernacle, both corresponding to the parts of Mount Sinai. This completely new reading transforms the interpretation of the purity laws. The pig and other forbidden animals are not abhorrent, they command the same respect due to all God's creatures. Boldly challenging several traditions of Bible criticism,...

Essays on the Sociology of Perception
ISBN: 9780415291118 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. First published in 1982, this title is based on her meetings with friends in which they attempt to apply the grid/group analysis from Natural Symbols. The essays have been important texts for preparing grid/group exercises ever since. She is still trying to improve the argument of Natural Symbols and is always hoping to find better applications to illustrate the power of the two dimensions used for accurate comparison.

ISBN: 9780415668736 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. First published in 1982, this collection of essays is a reproach to a form of the sociology of religion that treats people as the passive objects of impersonal social influences. In opposition to this, the author seeks to assert an active voice style of thinking about the relations between individuals and their cultural environment, whether in economics, history or literary criticism. This collection is assembled with the guiding principle that all the essays touch upon the borderland between economic values and personal judgements of quality. Several essays illustrate the theme... First published in 1982, this collection of essays is a reproach to a form of the sociology of religion that treats people as the passive objects o... |

Purity and Danger : An Analysis of Concepts of Pollution and Taboo
ISBN: 9780415291057 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 193 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Purity and Danger, acknowledged as a modern masterpiece of anthropology, is widely cited in non-anthropological works and gave rise to a body of application, rebuttal and development within anthropology. In 1995 the book was included among the Times Literary Supplement's 100 most influential non-fiction works since WWII. Incorporating the philosophy of religion and science and a generally holistic approach to classification, Douglas demonstrates the relevance of anthropological enquiries to an audience outside her immediate academic circle. She offers an approach to understanding rules of...

Feminist Psychotherapies: Integration of Therapeutic and Feminist Systems
ISBN: 9780893913878 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume demonstrates that there is no one feminist therapy, but rather a variety. Each has grown from the integration of feminist principles with multiple therapy theories. The authors present several products of this integration as models. The first section's chapters trace the influence of feminism on the development of feminist therapy, discuss a variety of professional issues and the goals of feminist therapy, discuss developmental issues, and examine the interface between feminist and psychotherapy systems, including psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral and family systems.

Risk and Blame
ISBN: 9780415291156 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. First published in 1992, this volume follows on from the programme for studying risk and blame that was implied in Purity and Danger. In the first half of the book, Douglas argues that the study of risk needs a systematic framework of political and cultural comparison. In the latter half she examines questions in cultural theory. Through the 11 essays contained in Risk and Blame, Douglas argues that the prominence of risk discourse will force upon the social sciences a programme of rethinking and consolidation that will include anthropological approaches.

In Purity and Danger Mary Douglas identifies the concern for purity as a key theme at the heart of every society. In lively and lucid prose she explains its relevance for every reader by revealing its wide-ranging impact on our attitudes to society, values, cosmology and knowledge. The book has been hugely influential in many areas of debate - from religion to social theory. But perhaps its most important role is to offer each reader a new explanation of why people behave in the way they do.

Evans-Pritchard's approach to anthropology. His seminal works on the Azande and the Nuer had an immense impact on the field in Britain.

In this book Douglas links the development of her own theories to her training under Evans-Pritchard at the institute and to...
