‎The Last Neanderthal : The Rise Success and Mysterious Extinction of Our Closest Human Relatives: Revised Edition‎

‎Boulder CO.: Westview Press 1999. Scientists have long known that the popular image of the Neanderthal as a primitive hairy heavily browed club-wielding brute is not supported by the fossil evidence. But to date no such consensus has existed on the riddle of Neanderthals� disappearance. The Last Neanderthal written by one of the most respected authorities on the subject and supported by a dazzling wealth of material paints the first full portrait of the most familiar and haunting of human relatives. Drawing on the latest findings and sophisticated new techniques of analysis Ian Tattersall marshals the best available evidence to unravel the mysteries of the Neanderthals - who they were how they lived how they succeeded for so long. Drawing on his own research and the work of others Tattersall takes on the most fascinating question of all - what happened to them This revised edition is fully updated to include information on Tattersall�s recent survey of all known Neanderthal fossils cutting-edge work with Neanderthal DNA and new discoveries in Spain. 208 pp. Illustrated. Minimal shelfwear. No spine cracks or creases. . Revised Edition. Soft Cover. Fine. 4to - over 9�" - 12" tall. Westview Press Paperback‎

‎Tatz Collin‎

‎Aboriginal Suicide is Different‎

‎Aboriginal Studies Press 2004. In large illustrated wrappers. This report is the outcome of a project funded by the Criminology Research Council. The original title of the project in the name of Colin Tatz was "Aboriginal youth suicide : towards a model of explanation and alleviation". In seeking to gain an understanding youth suicide in Aboriginal and Maori communities Tatz examines the social and political contexts the origins of the "new violence" the anthropology of suicide the prevalence and nature of Aboriginal suicide and social and contributing factors. What began as a 1999 report to Australia's Criminology Research Council has been expanded and personalized into a study of young Aboriginal men and women who feel they have no purpose in life and choose death instead. It focuses on New South Wales the Australian Capital Territory and New Zealand where suicide rates may be the world's worst. Tatz Macquarie U. works to get behind the statistics to portray the grim history that has led to this public health crisis as well as the alienation of contemporary Aboriginal life that perpetuates it. Fine as New. Aboriginal Studies Press paperback‎

‎Taylor Douglas Macrae 1901 1980‎

‎Languages of the West Indies‎

‎xix278 pages with tables and diagrams. Royal octavo 9 1/4" x 6 1/4" bound in original burnt orange cloth with black lettering to spine. Foreword by Sidney W Mintz and Dell Hymes. First edition.<br /><br />Based upon more than forty years of linguistic and ethnographic research Douglas Taylor's work presents the languages of the Caribbean in all their variegated richness. Focusing as it does on language contact and linguistic change in the Caribbean from pre-Conquest times to the present it brings the perspectives of linguistics anthropology and history to bear on a crucial area of the New World experience. The author concentrates first on the Amerindian languages of the Caribbean Nepuyo Shebayo Yao Taino Arawak and Island-Carib. He provides the fullest account ever given of the linguistic situation and the history of these languages. Second he turns to the so-called creole languages of the region languages commonly associated with the enslaved Africans whose descendants make up the majority of the Caribbean population. He shows the derivations of the various language systems and the borrowings each language makes from another. Today as Taylor demonstrates these languages vie with standard dialects of European tongues in much of the Caribbean. In Haiti alone probably more than five million persons speak a creole as their first language. By choosing these two important and radically contrastive dimensions for description and analysis Taylor provides the reader with a broad yet remarkably particular overview of the phenomena of language and language change. Creole languages are spoken by millions of contemporary speakers; but the language of the Island-Carib has disappeared from the insular Caribbean. Thus the idiom that once provided all the inhabitants of the lesser islands with their principal medium of communication has now been almost completely supplanted. The principal languages of much of the region today are the outgrowth of lengthy and complex encounters among speakers of many different tongues speakers who were themselves descended from newcomers whose own native languages were not or are no longer spoken in the region. As Taylor points out in his introductory comments language as the primary means of perpetuating culture profoundly reflects and informs the culture itself. Its presence is a living representation of the way of life of people; its disappearance or destruction usually signals the replacement of our cultural system by another. In sum Taylor has provided original and crucial evidence that the origin and character of the Caribbean creole languages must be sought in cultural history of the Caribbean creole-speaking peoples. He adopts the view that the early stage of the language reflected a lexicon largely of Portuguese origin that had been shaped in West Africa and subsequently reshaped in other regions under the influence of other languages. To this "reflexication" hypothesis as it is called he joins a necessary grammatical hypothesis.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />A fine copy in like jacket. John Hopkins University Press hardcover‎

‎TAYLOR (Lawrence J.).‎

‎Occasions of Faith. An Anthropology of Irish Catholics.‎

‎Philadelphia, University of Pennsylvania Press, 1995, gr. in-8°, xv-282 pp, 24 illustrations, biblio, index, broché, couv. illustrée, bon état. Texte en anglais‎

‎"Devotional "occasions" or experiences by Irish Catholics form the crux of this powerful, first book-length anthropological study of Irish Catholicism. Rich in ethnographical material, wide-ranging archival sources, insightful cultural observations, vivid accounts of individual experiences, and thoughtful scrutiny of religious questions and theories illuminate twenty years of ethnographic fieldwork. From these varied resources Lawrence Taylor creates a memorable account of the forces that shape local forms of Catholicism in southwest Donegal."‎
