‎Whorf and His Critics: Linguistic and Nonlinguistic Influences on Color Memory‎

‎581-615 pages with tables and appendices. Royal octavo 9 1/4" x 6 1/2" volume 81 number 3 bound in original publisher's wrappers. First edition. The current state of research on language and though using color as a stimulus is reviewed. Five related experiments that integrate and expand the findings of this previous color research is reported. The relationship between memory and 1 color stimuli discriminability 2 focality 3 two-person communication accuracy 4 group communication accuracy and 5 referential confusability is assessed. What is discovered is that the color array previously used to demonstrate the influence of focality on memory is discriminatingly biased in favor of focal chips. Results show that when perceptual discriminability is controlled for the various linguistic indices are better predictors of memory accuracy in both short-term and long term recognition memory tasks than is focality. Memory for color stimuli seems to be mediated by basic color descriptions which may include but are not restricted to basic color terms. The discussion takes up the implications of the findings for previous research and for Whorf's hierachical view of the relationship between language and sublinguistic universals. Condition: Very good. American Anthropological Association paperback‎

‎Maya Hieroglyphic Writing: Introduction‎

‎xvii34764 with frontispiece figures map and index. Quarto 11 1/2" x 9" bound in original publisher's wrappers. Publication 589 Carnegie Institution of Washington. First edition.<br /><br />In this series of essays Thompson reviews extant knowledge on Maya writing gives rich comment and reworks anew the entire field in search of material that may give clues to decipherment. His approach is revealed in the following quotation. "In this volume I have tackled the problem of decipherment in what I deem to be a new way although one which has in it elements which have been tried before. It is my conviction that we shall interpret the glyphs only by relying heavily on the beliefs the religious symbolism the mythology and to a lesser extent the everyday activities of the Maya because such concepts surely are imbedded in each glyph . . . Argument must be from the known to the unknown and for that reason many pages are given to elucidating the meanings of the day names and other signs the names and functions of which are known." All these phases are discussed linguistic clues are investigated and the pictorial and graphic qualities of the glyphs themselves are analyzed at length. Thus the author makes an intense dual study of both the ethnology of the ancient Maya and of the morphology of the hieroglyphs in a search for inter-linkages that may lead to further understanding. Thompson shows that the several calendars endlessly repeating and interlocking like the gears of a complicated clock were not just soulless counting devices: "The Maya conceived of the divisions of time as burdens which were carried through all eternity by relays of bearers . . . Time was not portrayed as the journey of one bearer and his load but of many bearers each with his own division of time on his back." This concept accounts for a host of ethnological ideas suggested in the codices and the stone inscriptions and mentioned in the books of Chilam Balam. Each period such as the day the 260 day cycle and the katun had its own group of bearers usually gods; and the occasion of transfer of the burden of that particular series was an event of note. Period endings were the resting places of the porters. The outstanding example of this Maya idea was the importance of the endings of the twenty-year katuns commemorated by important ceremonies and the erecting of monuments. At such times the bearer of the incoming katun became a powerful diety while his predecessor was relegated to comparative obscurity until the cycle repeated itself. Regarding the religious nature of the Maya calendar the author says "Nowhere else in the world have the periods of time from the day upward been not only deified but given active personalities and the most important parts on the divine stage. . . The fourth Maya day was the day of the maize god . . . The sun god is not only the sun he is the day Ahau he is the number 4." Thus even the numeral itself may be deified. Thompson believes that this thesis of spiritual inter-linkage of living calendars with the Maya pantheon indicates a basic philosophy of the priests. It serves not only in interpretation of the hieroglyphic texts but also gives an insight into the thought and action of the Maya.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />Corners gently bumped with some light edge wear spine age darkened else a very good copy.

‎Unraveling Piltdown : The Science Fraud of the Century and Its Solution‎

‎Random House UK 1996. Trade Paperback. Very Good. 279 pages. Covers have no creasing. Spine has minimal reading creases. Pages are lightly tanned. In 1913 an amateur fossil hunter and antiquarian named Charles Dawson found in a gravel pit in England parts of the skull of an entirely new species of pre-human. The discovery soon known as Piltdown Man caused headlines worldwide trumpeting the claim that the evolutionary "missing link" between ape and man had been found.Controversy quickly arose with many scientists charging that the jaw and cranium were not related and must have come from two different creatures an ancient man and an ancient ape. But the believers prevailed and for forty years Piltdown Man held his place - though a troubled place - in the fast-developing evolutionary scheme.In 1953 using advanced techniques for dating fossils a team of English scientist's dramatically exposed Piltdown Man as nothing more than an amazing fraud an ingenious but undoubted forgery.In Unraveling Piltdown John Evangelist Walsh tells the complete story of the astonishing hoax and convincingly exposes the true culprit. A final chapter explains in detail exactly how the entire affair was managed offering a precise description of the planting and discovery of each of the fraudulent specimens.Filled with vivid portraits of Edwardian personalities based strictly on documentary evidence Unraveling Piltdown is a thoroughly absorbing detective story in which one of history's greatest frauds is finally solved.

‎PRIMITIVE MARRIAGE: AN INQUIRY INTO THE ORIGIN OF THE FORM OF CAPTURE IN MARRIAGE CEREMONIES [Hardcover]‎

‎About the Book:- The Chief sources of information regarding the early history of civil society are first, the study of races in their primitive condition; and, second, the study of the symbols employed by advanced nations in the constitution or exercise of civil rights. From these studies pursued together, we obtain to a large extent, the power of classifying social phenomena as more or less archaic and thus of connecting and arranging in their order the stages of human advancement. The book is devided into the following chapters, namely, Legal Symbolism and Primitive Life, The form of capture in Marriage Ceremonies, The Origin of the form of capture, On the Prevalence of the Practice of capturing Wives, de facto, Of the rule against Marriage between members of the same Tribe, On the state of Hostility, Exogamy: its Origin-Comparative Archaism of Exogamy and Endogamy, Ancient System of Kinship, and their Influence on the Structure of the Primitive Groups, The Decay of Exogamy. About the Autor:-John Ferguson McLennan FRSE LLD (14 October 1827 – 16 June 1881), was a Scottish advocate, social anthropologist and ethnologist. He was born in Inverness, the son of John McLennan, an insurance agent, and his wife, Jessie Ross. He was educated in that city, then studied law at King's College, Aberdeen, graduating M.A. in 1849. In 1865, McLennan published Primitive Marriage. In it he argued from symbolic and ceremonial forms of bride kidnapping (see also Types of marriage). His ideas had been partially anticipated by Johann Jakob Bachofen, writing in 1861 on matriarchy, but were independent. McLennan developed from ethnographic data a social evolutionist theory of marriage, and also of systems of kinship according to natural laws. He rejected patriarchal society as an early stage, arguing in favour of agnation as a more basic evolutionary point; he proposed an early model of social groups, a war band mainly male, practicing female infanticide and acquiring female sexual partners, with promiscuity and matrilineality salient features.
