Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthropology is a discipline very conscious of its history, and Alan Barnard has written a clear, balanced and judicious textbook that surveys the historical contexts of the great debates and traces the genealogies of theories and schools of thought. It also considers the problems involved in assessing these theories. The book covers the precursors of anthropology; evolutionism in all its guises; diffusionism and culture area theories, functionalism and structural-functionalism; action-centred theories; processual and Marxist perspectives; the many faces of relativism, structuralism and post-structuralism; and recent interpretive and postmodernist viewpoints.

Book A Social History of Anthropology in the United States

Download or read book A Social History of Anthropology in the United States written by Thomas C. Patterson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-22 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive introduction to the social history of anthropology in the United States, examining the circumstances that gave rise to the discipline and illuminating the role of anthropology in the modern world. Thomas C. Patterson considers the shifting social and political-economic conditions in which anthropological knowledge has been produced and deployed, the appearance of practices focused on particular regions or groups, the place of anthropology in structures of power, and the role of the educator in forging, perpetuating, and changing representations of past and contemporary peoples. The book addresses the negative reputation that anthropology took on as an offspring of imperialism, and provides fascinating insight into the social history of America. In this second edition, the material has been revised and updated, including a new chapter that covers anthropological theory and practice during the turmoil created by multiple ongoing crises at the beginning of the twenty-first century. This is valuable reading for students and scholars interested in the origins, development, and theory of anthropology.

Book Made to Be Seen

    Book Details:
  • Author : Marcus Banks
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2012-08-01
  • ISBN : 0226036634
  • Pages : 426 pages

Download or read book Made to Be Seen written by Marcus Banks and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Made to be Seen brings together leading scholars of visual anthropology to examine the historical development of this multifaceted and growing field. Expanding the definition of visual anthropology beyond more limited notions, the contributors to Made to be Seen reflect on the role of the visual in all areas of life. Different essays critically examine a range of topics: art, dress and body adornment, photography, the built environment, digital forms of visual anthropology, indigenous media, the body as a cultural phenomenon, the relationship between experimental and ethnographic film, and more. The first attempt to present a comprehensive overview of the many aspects of an anthropological approach to the study of visual and pictorial culture, Made to be Seen will be the standard reference on the subject for years to come. Students and scholars in anthropology, sociology, visual studies, and cultural studies will greatly benefit from this pioneering look at the way the visual is inextricably threaded through most, if not all, areas of human activity.

Book The Scope and Content of the Science of Anthropology

Download or read book The Scope and Content of the Science of Anthropology written by Juul Dieserud and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Scope and Content of the Science of Anthropology: Historical Review, Library Classification and Select, Annotated Bibliography; With a List of the Chief Publications of Leading Anthropological Societies and Museums The present work is an outgrowth of an earlier effort to alleviate the worries and perplexities haunting the classifier of books as well as the amateur scientist, taking up this most unsettled and vaguely limited field of study. As far back as 1894, while assistant in the Field Columbian Museum Library it fell to my lot to take part in the classification of its very handsome collection of anthropological literature, and since that time the subject has never been entirely out of my mind. Three years later, when appointed Librarian, I undertook a thorough revision of the classification, and in 1898 read a paper on the subject in the Chicago Library Club, a brief extract being printed in the Library Journal of the same year as well as in Public Libraries. Two years later joining the staff of the National Library, as a catalogue reviser, it became my duty to assign subject headings to its collection of anthropological literature in connection with the new catalogue, and also to keep track of current books in that line, with a view to recommend new purchases. I soon found out that my classification had been prepared too hastily and more especially that its claims for the new science were too sweeping, viewed not only from the standpoint of the classifier of a universal library but even from that of the cautious, broad-minded specialist. I had evidently followed authorities that of late have been justly criticized for their aggressive zeal in encroaching upon the legitimate field of neighboring sciences.
