Readings in Early AnthropologyRoutledge, 6 dec. 2012 - 552 sidor This book considers the beginnings of anthropology as a cultural tradition, and examines how it was developed and transmitted. It begins in the twelfth century, when commercial capitalism and extensive acculturation spread a secular world view among intellectuals. It ends with the eighteenth century, because most anthropologists are familiar with the subsequent history of their science. Originally published in 1963. |
