Taliani Simona
Il bambino e il suo doppio. Malattia, stregoneria e antropologia dell'infanzia in Camerun
br. Il libro si propone di esplorare, a partire dalla ricerca condotta nel Camerun meridionale, la logica simbolica che sottende l'insieme dei discorsi e delle pratiche connessi alla malattia, ai modelli dell'infanzia, alla dimensione morale della malattia e della cura. L'analisi dei termini utilizzati nella costruzione di questi discorsi rivela quanto la semantica sociale del concetto di "stregoneria", la cui polisemia e la cui economia sono state messe in rilievo da un'ampia letteratura, sia il riflesso di un intricato gioco di riverberi fra l'immaginario locale e le rappresentazioni della persona da un lato, le ideologie del corpo e l'etica del soggetto veicolate dal colonialismo e dall'evangelizzazione.

Tamayo Rufino Arellanes 1899 1991
Arte Prehispanico de Mexico: Coleccion Rufino Tamayo
159 pages with over 150 photographs some in color and index. Folio 13 1/2" x 10 1/2" bound in cream cloth with black lettering to spine and front cover. Introduction by Ramon Xirau. First edition limited to 2000 copies. Rufino Tamayo was a Mexican painter who combined modern European painting styles with Mexican folk themes. Tamayo attended the School of Fine Arts in Mexico City from 1917 to 1921 but he was dissatisfied with the traditional art program and thereafter studied independently. He became head of the department of ethnographic drawing at the National Museum of Archaeology 1921–26 in Mexico City where he developed an interest in pre-Columbian art. Tamayo spent many years of his career in New York City first settling there from 1926 to 1928. He retained his ties to Mexico and returned there often but the modern art he encountered in New York—especially the paintings of European artists Pablo Picasso Georges Braque and Henri Matisse—profoundly influenced his work. Tamayo reacted against the epic proportions and political rhetoric of the paintings of the Mexican muralists who had dominated the country's art production since the Mexican Revolution. Instead he chose to address formal and aesthetic issues in easel paintings fusing European styles such as Cubism and Surrealism with subject matter that often involved Mexican culture. By the 1930s Tamayo had become a well-known figure in the Mexican art scene. He lived in New York again from 1936 to 1950. Tamayo exhibited his paintings at the Venice Biennale in 1950 and the success of his work there led to international recognition. After living in Paris from 1957 to 1964 Tamayo settled in Mexico. In 1974 he donated his large collection of pre-Columbian art to the city of Oaxaca founding the Rufino Tamayo Museum of Pre-Hispanic Art. In 1981 Tamayo and his wife donated to the people of Mexico their collection of international art which formed the basis for the Rufino Tamayo Museum of Contemporary Art in Mexico City.Condition:Corners gently bumped.

Tarak Chandra Das was an anthropologist of Calcutta University. He did his Masters' from Calcutta University in 'Ancient Indian History and Culture' and joined the then newly founded Department of Anthropology at Calcutta University the first Department of Anthropology in India in 1921 as a research scholar and then he became lecturer in 1923 and finally retired as a Reader from the Department in 1963. Das conducted extensive fieldworks in Chotanagpur in the then Bihar and in Assam. Das was interested in the application of Anthropology. In 1941 he delivered the Sectional Presidential address in the Anthropology Section of the Indian Science Congress on the 'Cultural Anthropology in the Service of the Individual and the Nation'. In the address Das elaborately charted out the future path of Indian anthropology with a description of the social dynamics of the tribal and peasant societies in India in the context of the role of anthropologists in nation building. Two books written by T.C. Das bears testimony of his observation and collection of data through anthropological fieldwork. One is his monograph on the Purum Kuki tribe of north-eastern India. and the other is on the Great Bengal Famine during the Second World War.Bengal famine 1943:As revealed in a survey of the destitutes of Calcutta1949. Both the books were published by the University of Calcutta. Northeast India provided windows for Das in his applied anthropological approach towards nation building. The Purum monograph was one of the most comprehensive works produced by an anthropologist on the life of a small tribe and it became a major source of data for a number of world-renowned social anthropologists of Great Britain and USA in later years. The book on the famine of Bengal which took place in 1943 was a unique and rare first-hand study done by any anthropologist or social scientist on the victims of one of the greatest tragedies of India under the colonial rule. An earlier version of the book was discussed in the then British Parliament and some of the recommendations advanced by Das were adopted by the Famine Inquiry Commission in 1944 formed by the colonial government for the prevention of future famines in India. The Nobel Laureate economist Amartya Sen cited Das's original work in his famous book Poverty and Famines. Throughout the book one finds description by Das wherein dry quantitative datagraphs and tables were made alive with human stories of 'grim struggles between hunger and finer sentiments of love affection and kindness'. Das had conducted intensive fieldwork among three tribes in eastern India viz. Ho Kharia and Bhumij during 1927-31 and had shown how these tribes maintained their sociocultural identities. Apart from his success as an ethnographerDas was also an armchair anthropologist. His studies on culture around fish in Bengal museums and dowry restriction law provided examples of his keen interest in dealing with archival materials and written texts in social anthropological and sociological studies.

The book on the famine of Bengal which took place in 1943 was a unique and rare first-hand study done by any anthropologist or social scientist on the victims of one of the greatest tragedies of India under the colonial rule. An earlier version of the book was discussed in the then British Parliament and some of the recommendations advanced by Das were adopted by the Famine Inquiry Commission in 1944 formed by the colonial government for the prevention of future famines in India. The Nobel Laureate economist Amartya Sen cited Das's original work in his famous book Poverty and Famines. Throughout the book, one finds description by Das wherein dry quantitative data,graphs and tables were made alive with human stories of 'grim struggles between hunger and finer sentiments of love, affection and kindness'. Das had conducted intensive fieldwork among three tribes in eastern India, viz. Ho, Kharia and Bhumij during 1927-31 and had shown how these tribes maintained their sociocultural identities. Apart from his success as an ethnographer,Das was also an armchair anthropologist. His studies on culture around fish in Bengal, museums and dowry restriction law provided examples of his keen interest in dealing with archival materials and written texts in social anthropological and sociological studies.

La bella e la bestia. Il tipo umano nell'antropologia liberale
brossura Secondo Max Weber ogni ordinamento delle relazioni sociali deve essere esaminato e valutato in riferimento al "tipo umano" a cui offre le migliori possibilità di diventare predominante. Questo volume assume e applica l'indicazione del sociologo tedesco e si interroga su quali siano i caratteri del proto-tipo e del contro-tipo dell'umano nell'Italia basso-liberale. Si narrano quattro episodi di questa dialettica fra tipi prevalenti e umanità minori, fra tipo e anti-tipo. Si seguono le incarnazioni dell'umano e del disumano nella gloria parallelepipeda catodica e digitale, nella palestra del fitness manageriale, nell'immensa latrina di un manicomio criminale e nello spettacolo delle esposizioni coloniali. Tra figure della fama e dell'infamia, emerge il quadro di una democrazia ereditaria in cui torna egemone l'individuo proprietario.
