Book excerpt: Excerpt from University of California Publications in History, Vol. 4 Yet when I say that anthropology is a young science I mean no more than this, that in the unfolding of that full bloom of rational culture, which sprang from the seeds of the Renais sance, and of which we are the heirs and trustees, anthropology found its place in the sunlight later than most; and almost alone among the sciences can reckon any of its founders among the living. This was of course partly an accident of birth and cir cumstance; for in the House of Wisdom there are many man sions; a Virchow, a Bastian, or a Tylor might easily have strayed through the gate of knowledge into other fields Of work; just as Locke and Montesquieu only narrowly missed the trail into anthropology.

Download or read book Classic Anthropology written by John William Bennett and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classic Anthropology is Bennett's label for the work produced by anthropologists during the period 1915-1955, which many believe represents the most productive era in the discipline's history. It is also one that can never be repeated, given the fact that most of anthropology's basic data - the ideas and customs of tribal peoples - have been extinguished or greatly transformed by modernization and nationalization. The book is composed of some fifteen essays. Among the issues examined are: the emergence of a functionalist viewpoint in ethnology; the difficulties of developing a theory of human behavior because of the focus on culture; the "search" for concepts of culture to serve specialized needs; the neglect of social psychology by the "culture and personality" field; how value judgments emerged, willy-nilly - or conversely, were neglected, in ethnological research; how applied anthropology was challenged by "Action Anthropology"; and how the interdisciplinary anthropology of the late 1940s was submerged in the postwar effort to return the discipline to traditionalroots. Individual anthropologists whose work is examined include, among others. Bronislaw Malinowski, Leslie Spier, Alfred Kroeber, Ralph Linton, Margaret Mead, Ruth Benedict, Clyde Kluckhohn, Gregory Bateson, and Walter Taylor.
Download or read book History and Ethnology Classic Reprint written by W. H. R. Rivers and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Ethnology IT is the aim of this essay to show the importance of ethnology, and especially of recent develop ments of that science, to history. During the last ten years there has been in progress, rudely hindered but not stopped by the war, a movement which has brought the two disciplines into much closer relationship than would have been possible under the conditions which guided the study of ethnology twenty or thirty years ago. At this more remote period anthropology - I use the term anthropology advisedly - was wholly under the dominance of a crude evolutionary standpoint. The aim of the anthropologist was to work out a scheme of human progress according to which language, social organisation, religion, and material arts had developed through the action of certain principles or laws. It was assumed that the manifold peoples of the earth represented stages in this process of evolution, and it was supposed that by the comparative study of the culture of these different peoples it would be possible to formulate the laws by which the process of evolu tion had been directed and governed. It was. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.

Download or read book Handbook of the Indians of California written by Alfred Louis Kroeber and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1925, this monograph is a representative work of Alfred L. Kroeber’s (1876-1960) contributions to American Indian ethnology. It also illustrates why Kroeber, a noted American anthropologist and founder of the anthropology department at the University of California at Berkeley, is considered to be the father of California Indian studies. Kroeber’s handbook provides a comprehensive look at the Indians of California and offers a foundation for the ethnographical study of California’s Native American cultures. In addition to the vast amount of textual information presented by Kroeber, the handbook offers a wide range of additional resources to enhance the reading and research experience. There are a number of tables as well as a variety of illustrations, including photographs, text figures, and maps. The bibliography and indexes are designed to facilitate further discovery of information. Kroeber’s work remains to this day as a classic cultural documentation of the Indians of California. Kroeber’s monograph endeavors to provide not only the most recent body of knowledge available at the time of its publication, but it also dedicates a chapter to the topic of prehistory. The Handbook of the Indians of California is one of many titles published as a series of bulletins by the Smithsonian Institution Bureau of American Ethnology. A physical copy of this publication, officially released as Bulletin 78, is part of the William Smith Mason Collection of Western Americana, which resides in The Claremont Colleges Library Special Collections.
