Lionni Leo
Nicolas Where Have You Been
New York: Alfred A. Knopf 1987. Unpaginated picture book backed in red cloth with silver lettering tan paper-covered boards stamped with image of a little mouse carrying a berry. Front cover is quite presentable with moderate corner bumps and minimal edgewear; rear cover has a significant scrape to bottom edge repaired with library tape. Front endpaper removed by library upon deaccession; clean aside from few library inkstamps; tight binding; light fingering to pages; one short page-turning tear. Dust jacket is price-clipped shows minor discolouration and light edgewear but quite presentable with no spine label. Altogether a highly satisfactory reading copy. Nicolas and the other field mice resent the birds because they eat the ripe berries and leave only pale pink berries that are neither sweet nor juicy. But when a terrified Nicolas falls from the clutches of a "big ugly bird" into a smaller bird's nest he finds a warm welcome and learns to trust the creatures that he thought were his enemies. A story of peacemaking. Hard Cover. About Good/Good to Very Good. Illus. by Author. 9 x 11.25 in. 23cm x 28.5cm. Ex-Library. Alfred A. Knopf hardcover

Malinowski Bronislaw
Argonauti del Pacifico occidentale. Riti magici e vita quotidiana nella società primitiva
ill., br. Pubblicato nel 1922, questo libro è il frutto di una ricerca sul terreno condotta nelle isole Trobriand (Papua-Nuova Guinea), presso società di orticoltori che praticavano anche la pesca e l'allevamento di maiali a fini cerimoniali. Centrale nello studio di Malinowski è il sistema di scambi detto Kula ring che si svolgeva - e si svolge ancora - tra una trentina di isole, stabilendo rapporti di partenariato tra individui appartenenti a società diverse. Oggetto dello scambio sono collane e braccialetti privi di utilità pratica, ma carichi di valore simbolico. Il richiamo agli Argonauti dell'Antichità classica nel titolo si riferisce ai viaggi compiuti su canoe decorate che stabiliscono i contatti tra donatori e donatari. Introduzione di Giancarlo M. G. Scoditti.

Mead Margaret
Sesso e temperamento
br. Spesso associamo alcuni comportamenti soltanto alla donna e altri soltanto all'uomo: pensiamo alla cura del focolare domestico come prerogativa tipicamente femminile, allo stesso modo della dolcezza o della gelosia, mentre chiamiamo «virili» l'irruenza e l'agonismo, così come la volontà di lavorare, governare e proteggere la proprietà. Ma fino a che punto queste differenze di temperamento fra i due sessi sono innate? E fino a che punto sono invece frutto di un condizionamento culturale dovuto all'educazione? Nei primi anni trenta, spinta da questi interrogativi, Margaret Mead condusse ricerche pionieristiche presso tre diverse popolazioni della Nuova Guinea, ottenendo risultati capaci, oggi come allora, di ribaltare le nostre convinzioni. Gli uomini arapesh, per esempio, si comportano esattamente come le donne, avendo cura dei figli in un modo che definiremmo sen- za esitazioni «materno»; le donne mundugumor, all'opposto, assumono caratteristiche tradizionalmente maschili, come l'aggressività, la violenza e lo spirito di competizione. Le donne ciambuli hanno invece un temperamento effettivamente diverso dagli uomini, come avviene in Occidente, eppure detengono nei loro confronti una posizione di potere, gestendo la proprietà con parsimonia. Studiando a fondo il sistema sociale, i riti e l'educazione di questi popoli, Margaret Mead giunse alla seguente conclusione: le differenze di temperamento non dipendono tanto dall'appartenenza a un determinato sesso, quanto dalle convenzioni sociali che le sostengono sin dall'infanzia. Il resoconto accurato di questa scoperta, nonché dei viaggi che l'hanno resa possibile, è custodito fra i racconti storici e geografici di "Sesso e temperamento", un classico dell'antropologia in cui lo spirito scientifico di Margaret Mead incontra il più limpido gusto narrativo. Interpretando il contemporaneo attraverso il primitivo, l'autrice ci porta a mettere in discussione i nostri pregiudizi, fornendo indicazioni fondamentali su come ripensare la nostra società, attraversata, ancora oggi, dall'inscalfibile paura del diverso. Introduzione di Helen Fisher. Con uno scritto di Catherine Mary Bateson.
