Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Company of Man: Twenty Portraits by Anthropologists Most scholars in the several disciplines that deal with man and his works are devoted to the specialized study Of but one rather recent variant Of human culture, that of Western Man. Unlike his colleagues the anthropologist takes all mankind as his proper subject; and he is concerned with the whole range Of socially learned and socially shared behavior patterns that we have come to call culture. As the biographer seeks to portray the life Of a man, so the anthropologist as ethnographer seeks to describe and understand the way of life Of a people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Culture Ethnology For purely practical reasons, connected with the minute division of labor that has become imperative with modern specialization, ethnology has in practice concerned itself with the cruder cultures of peoples without a knowledge of writ ing. But this division is an illogical and artificial one. As the biologist can study life as manifested in the human organism as well as in the amoeba, so the ethnologist might examine and describe the usages of modern America as well as those of the Hopi Indians. In these lectures I shall there fore not hesitate to draw upon illustrations from the higher civilizations where these seem most appropriate.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Nature and Culture The art of living is the supreme art because it presents the widest range of material, and the most varied, delicate, and enduring forms of activity. Sculpture, painting, music, architecture, literature, taken together, are an expression of the human spirit realizing itself and its surroundings in the language of beauty; morality is the attempt of the same spirit to discern and live in right relations to other human Spirits; religion, its endeavor to establish and sustain fellowship with the Divine Spirit; philosophy, its effort to discover that final generali zation which shall put that spirit in command of the order of the universe; and history, the record of the struggle of that spirit to achieve.

This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Normal Training, the Principles and Methods of Human Culture: A Series of Lectures Addressed to Young Teachers Tits: series of lectures, of which the following are a part, was addressed, origin ally, to students pursuing a course of professional study, under the author's direction, in the Merrimack (n. H.) Normal Institute, and in the New England Normal Institute, Lancaster, Massachusetts. The course, as delivered, extended to the subjects of physical, moral, and msthetic culture; including, under the lat ter heads, remarks on principle as the foundation of character, and suggestions on the cultivation of taste. In the delivery of the lectures, it was deemed important to avoid the unfavor able influence of formal didactic exposition, in a course of professional lectures to a youthful audience. Equal importance, however, was attached toa strict observ ance of the systematic connection of topics, and the theoretic unity of the whole subject. The method adopted, therefore, in the routine of the lecture-room, was to treat a given point daily, in a brief oral address on one prominent topic, selected from the notes embodying the plan of the whole course.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anthropology and the Classics: Six Lectures Delivered Before the University of Oxford Anthropology and the Humanities - on verbal grounds one might suppose them coextensive yet in practice they divide the domain of human culture between them. The types of human culture are, in fact, reducible to two, a simpler and a more complex, or, as we are wont to say (valuing our own achievements, I doubt not, rightly), a lower and a higher. By established convention Anthro pology occupies itself solely with culture of the Simpler or lower kind. The Humanities, on the other hand - those humanizing studies that, for us at all events, have their parent source in the literatures of Greece and Rome - concentrate on whatever is most constitutive and characteristic of the higher life of society.
