ISBN: 9780521336932 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Meyer Fortes (1906 1982) was one of the foremost anthropologists of this century, who for many years worked among the Tallensi of northern Ghana.

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (dostawa w 2025) Originally published in 1945, this book analyses Tale social structure at the level of corporate group organization. Tale culture is discussed primarily as the content of social relations and not in its own right. Customs, beliefs, conventional usages, religious values are examined as indices of social relations. Although not a comparative study, it is clear that many features of Tale social organization are typical of patrilineal societies in West Africa and some Tale institutions have parallels in South, East, and Central Africa. Field work showed that every significant social... Originally published in 1945, this book analyses Tale social structure at the level of corporate group organization. Tale culture is di... |

Marriage in Tribal Societies
ISBN: 9780521109208 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Continuing a policy of devoting a whole issue to a single topic, the third volume of the series deals with aspects of marriage in tribal societies. Three papers by Esther Goody, Grace Harris and Jean La Fontaine give accounts of observations in African tribal societies; the fourth, by Marguerite Robinson, is a reassessment of Malinowski's data on the Trobrian islanders. Marriage in tribal societies is a transaction: it is also an institution with a place in the social structure. Status in marriage is seen as a crucial issue. The movement from filial to conjugal status in a first marriage is...

Kinship and the Social Order.: The Legacy of Lewis Henry Morgan
ISBN: 9780415866521 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 362 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (dostawa w 2025) Originally published in the UK in 1970. The central argument of this book is that the structuralist theory and method developed by British and American anthropologists in the study of kinship and social organization are the direct descendants of the researches of Lewis Henry Morgan. Re-examining Morgan's work, the book demonstrates how a tradition of mis-interpretation has disguised the true import of Morgan's discoveries and ideas for Rivers and Radcliffe-Brown and the generation of anthropologists inspired by them.

Outline of a Theory of Practice
ISBN: 9780521291644 / Angielski / Miękka / 1977 / 255 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Outline of a Theory of Practice is recognized as a major theoretical text on the foundations of anthropology and sociology. Pierre Bourdieu, a distinguished French anthropologist, develops a theory of practice which is simultaneously a critique of the methods and postures of social science and a general account of how human action should be understood. With his central concept of the habitus, the principle which negotiates between objective structures and practices, Bourdieu is able to transcend the dichotomies which have shaped theoretical thinking about the social world. The author draws on...

The Huli Response to Illness
ISBN: 9780521619660 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Dr Frankel's study of the rapid transformation of traditional medical care among the Huli of New Guinea by Western treatments strikingly combines the methods of social anthropology and epidemiology. Until the 1950s the Huli used only their own form of therapy, including symptomatic treatments, specialist surgery and major ritual intended to enlist the support of spirits. Since then, superficially at least, there has been a rejection of many traditional measures and a corresponding enthusiasm for Western treatments underpinned by Christianity. The Huli Response to Illness analyses the rich...

Power and Intimacy in the Christian Philippines
ISBN: 9780521646222 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (dostawa w 2025) The lowland Philippines, in contrast to the apparently "exotic," "tribal" areas, has for many years been thought of as a strangely Westernized place, without a cultural life of its own. This innovative and important book shows that this perception is a myth, which reflects our own obsessions with defining culture and identity as something "unchanging." Through an absorbing account of arranged marriages, miraculous saint cults, spirit mediumship and gay beauty contests, the author describes the unexpectedness of daily life in rural Bicol and the resilience and imagination of the Filipino...
