ISBN: 9780415694704 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Originally published in 1970, this book represents a unique study of beliefs and ritual practices in a pagan religion, and of the processes by which a transformation to Christianity took place. Christianity came to the major islands of Polynesia nearly two centuries ago, and within a couple of generations, the traditional pagan religion had disappeared. Only a few remote islands such as Tikopia preserved their ancient cults. Over eighty years ago, the author first observed and took part in these pagan rites, and on later visits he studied the change from paganism to Christian faith. Unique...

A Diary in the Strict Sense of the Term
ISBN: 9780804717076 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. When it was first published (in 1967, posthumously), Bronislaw Malinowski's diary, covering the period of his fieldwork in 1914-1915 and 1917-1918 in New Guinea and the Trobriand Islands, set off a storm of controversy. Many anthropologists felt that the publication of the diary-which Raymond Firth describes as -this revealing, egocentric, obsessional document--was a profound disservice to the memory of one of the giant figures in the history of anthropology. Almost certainly never intended to be published, Malinowski's diary was intensely personal and brutally honest. He kept it, he said,...

ISBN: 9780202309187 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 398 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Contemporary problems of economic and social change have obliged social scientists from different fi elds to learn much about each others' work as well as about the specifi c problems they are together seeking to solve. The bearing of economic conditions on the character of a social system has become more apparent to anthropologists, and, similarly, economists have become more aware of the relevance of social factors to economic decisions. This pioneering book is at the point of contact between these two disciplines, presenting detailed studies from many societies of the interaction between...
