Book excerpt: Cultures contribute to the richness of this world through their uniqueness and variety - as do their material products. This is reflected in the ethnographic collections from Africa, the Americas, South East Asia, Oceania and East Asia at the Museum of World Cultures in Frankfurt. Using exceptional photographs, 130 everyday objects or ritual items are presented from the huge collection.The objects in this volume are described and interpreted simultaneously as works of art. The book questions the environment in which the work was created and which ideas about design, colour, form, symmetry, balance, etc., might have influenced their production. The common goal is to present what it is about these works that are exceptional, elaborate, other, perfect or imperfect in fact, harmonious or disturbing.

Written by an international team of scholars from diverse disciplines such as psychology, education, neuroscience, sociology, evolutionary biology and anthropology, this essential reference presents the current state of the field in play research.

Book excerpt: Este livro apresenta a cultura, os jogos e as lendas do Curupira, Juruparí e Poronominare, das comunidades da etnia Baré, localizadas próximas aos municípios de Santa Isabel do Rio Negro e São Gabriel da Cachoeira, às margens do rio Negro no estado do Amazonas. O projeto contempla uma região com uma forte desestruturação social, que tem sofrido inúmeras pressões desde a chegada dos europeus até a mais recente invasão de garimpeiros, e que chama a atenção pela dramática taxa de suicídios entre sua população jovem. O devastador processo de aculturação implica a perda dos saberes tradicionais, a tradição oral e técnicas artísticas de grande valor, levando as populações indígenas a se sentirem desvalorizadas e negarem sua identidade indígena. This book presents the culture, games and legends of the Curupira, Jurupari and Poronominare, as told by the Baré ethnic communities, located near the towns of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro and São Gabriel da Cachoeira, by banks of Rio Negro in Amazonas state. The project includes a region with a strong social disruption, which has undergone numerous pressures from the arrival of Europeans to the most recent invasion of miners, and calls attention to the dramatic rate of suicides among its young population. The devastating acculturation process implies the loss of traditional knowledge, oral tradition and artistic techniques of great value, leading indigenous people to feel devalued and to deny their indigenous identity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a comprehensive, up-to-date synopsis of fathering and father-child relationships in diverse regions of the world, helping students and practitioners alike understand cultural variations in male parenting. Interest in the role of the father and his influence on children's development and economic well-being has grown considerably. This edited volume uses detailed accounts to provide culturally situated analysis of fathering in cultures around the world. The book's contributors, a multidisciplinary group of scholars, bring together the most recent theoretical thinking and research findings on fatherhood and fathering in cultural communities across developed, recently developed, and developing societies. They address such issues as fathering and gender equality in caregiving, concepts of masculinity in contemporary societies, fathering in various ethnic groups, immigrant fathers, fathering and childhood outcomes, and social policies as they affect and are affected by issues related to fathering. Organized geographically, the book scrutinizes major sociocultural, demographic, economic, and other factors that influence men's relationships within families. It shows how economic conditions impact men's involvement with children and considers the effects of ideological belief systems and views of spousal/partner roles and responsibilities. The analysis is underpinned by recent data that underscores the significance of fathers' involvement with and investment in the well-being of their children.
