Lévi-Strauss Claude
Il totemismo oggi
br. Il totemismo, ossia il particolare fenomeno per cui un uomo o un gruppo di uomini si legano con un rapporto di parentela e di mutua protezione a una specie animale - o a piante e fenomeni naturali -, è stato variamente considerato: gli sono stati di volta in volta riconosciuti e negati carattere religioso e carattere universale; a volte è stato considerato tipico di una fase del progresso culturale; altre volte se ne è constatata l'assenza nei popoli più primitivi. L'analisi critica di Claude Lévi-Strauss prospetta il fenomeno in una luce tutta nuova: "Il totemismo partecipa della conoscenza; le esigenze alle quali risponde, il modo stesso in cui cerca di soddisfarle, sono in primo luogo d'ordine intellettuale. In questo senso non ha nulla d'arcaico e di lontano".

MacDonald, George F.; Foreward By Bill Reid; Commentary By Richard J. Huyda
Haida Monumental Art - Villages of the Queen Charlotte Islands
218 pages. From limited edition of 1600 copies. "Concerned entirely with the Haidas of the Queen Charlotte Islands of the last century, the intricacies of the kinship patterns of the great families, and how they saw themselves as part of a fantastic, but in its own terms, logical, cosmos, and most of all how this was all expressed in their remarkable architecture with its perfectly integrated massive carved and painted embellishments, the great totem poles of the Haidas." - from Foreward. "The documentary photographs that survive are among the few remaining records which illustrate the richness and variety of Haida monumental art. Of the more than five hundred carved poles which appear in the plates, only about fifty were removed to museums for safekeeping. The remainder have perished entirely or survive at the village sites as decayed fragments overgrown with the lush vegetation of the islands." - from Preface. Light external wear and soiling to cream-coloured cloth-covered boards. No external markings. Discreet bookplate and bit of writing inside front board. Blindstamp to lower corner of title page. Bit of writing in upper left corner of title page. Remnant of card pocket inside back board. Binding tight. A quality copy of this magnificent work. Book

I totem.
Firenze, 1993, 8vo stralcio con copertina posticcia muta, pp. 649/657 con 8 illustrazioni ed una tavola fotografica a colori. - !! ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo, completo in se, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perché ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “extract” or “excerpt” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.
