Derevenski, Joanna Sofaer (ed.)
Children and Material Culture
8vo. 1st Edition. "This volume focuses entirely on children and material culture. The contributors ask: what is the relationship between children and the material world?; is the material culture of children the same across all times and cultures, or does it vary?; and how can we access the actions and identities of children in the material records? The collection spans a period from the Palaeolithic to the late-20th century, and uses data from across Europe, Scandinavia, the Americas and Asia. The international contributors are from a range of disciplines including archaeology, cultural and biological anthropology, psychology and museum studies. All integrate theory and data to illustrate the significance and potential of studying children. " (Publisher).

France: Librairie Plon Collection Terre humaine 1993 � On les appelle Jivaros. Ils pr�f�rent se d�nommer Achuar les Gens du palmier d'eau. Isol�e dans la jungle de haute Amazonie cette tribu l�gendaire fut prot�g�e durant des si�cles de l'incursion des Blancs par son inqui�tante r�putation de chasseurs de t�tes. Plus qu'une condition de leur ind�pendance la guerre est pour ces Indiens une vertu cardinale ; elle donne du prestige renforce la solidarit� raffermit l'identit� ethnique et permet le renouvellement rituel des �mes. Gr�ce � elle les Achuar sont encore plusieurs milliers fiers de leurs traditions et farouchement attach�s � leur mode de vie. Ce livre est une chronique de leur d�couverte et un hommage � leur r�sistance. Philippe Descola y relate au quotidien les �tapes d'une intimit� affective et intellectuelle croissante avec ce peuple dont il a partag� l'existence pendant pr�s de trois ann�es en tant qu'anthropologue. Ce t�moignage exceptionnel sur une mani�re libre et presque oubli�e de vivre la condition humaine tire d'une exp�rience singuli�re un enseignement pour le temps pr�sent.� �tiquette vierge en deuxi�me de couverture.

DESCOLA PHILIPPE
The Ecology Of Others: Anthropology And The Question Of Nature
Prickly Paradigm Press: 2012. Softcover. Brand new book. Since the end of the nineteenth century the division between nature and culture has been fundamental to Western thought. In this groundbreaking work renowned anthropologist Philippe Descola seeks to break down this divide arguing for a departure from the anthropocentric model and its rigid dualistic conception of nature and culture as distinct phenomena. In its stead Descola proposes a radical new worldview in which beings and objects human and nonhuman are understood through the complex relationships that they possess with one another. The Ecology of Others presents a compelling challenge to anthropologists ecologists and environmental studies scholars to rethink the way we conceive of humans objects and the environment. Thought-provoking and engagingly written it will be required reading for all those interested in moving beyond the moving beyond the confines of this fascinating debate. Translated into English from the French by Genevi�ve Godbout and Benjamin P. Luley. Contents Foreword to the English edition Introduction I: The Clam Debate On the proper use of siphons Conjectural ecology The two natures of Lvi-Strauss II: Anthropological Dualism Nature naturing nature natured A paradoxical object Controversies and convergences The path of reduction The path of translation III: To Each His Own Nature Truths and beliefs The mystery of the Moderns Monisms and symmetries Universalism and relativism Conclusion List of works referenced.

Desmon Morris
Le civette. Storia, mito e realtà di un mistero nato insieme all'uomo
Traduzione di Viviana Cerqua Illustrato a colori Simbolo di saggezza ma anche annunciatrici di sventura, le civette sono protagoniste di un mistero vecchio come il mondo e grande come i cinque continenti. Uccelli dalla faccia tonda e dai grandi occhi puntati verso l'ignoto, sembrano poter dominare il mistero della conoscenza meglio degli stessi uomini che, ovunque, le hanno elette a simulacro del sapere. Allo stesso tempo, però, in virtù delle abitudini furtive e crepuscolari, le civette e gli altri rapaci notturni sono trasformati spesso in icone di paura e malvagità. In questo libro, capolavoro di sapienza etologica e di scrittura narrativa, Desmond Morris affronta il mito della civetta nella cultura umana dall'antica Babilonia fino a Harry Potter - confrontando i risultati dell'osservazione scientifica con le leggende e i racconti custoditi dalle tradizioni popolari.

Destro Adriana
Il potere delle cose ordinarie. Sguardi antropologici
br. Che cosa significa osservare gli eventi minimi, le cose apparentemente di poco conto? Ogni giorno sentiamo l'esigenza di chiarire e di dare nuovo significato agli eventi ordinari che in qualche modo ci coinvolgono. Il libro penetra nei livelli elementari che costituiscono le certezze dell'esistenza. Rappresenta gli scenari che strutturano il quotidiano: le parole e i silenzi, la natura che ci interroga, le nascite e le credenze, la passione del bello, il sedurre e l'essere sedotti. Benché talora contraddittorio, il nostro mestiere di umani è di metterci miracolosamente in gioco per gestire vittorie, sconfitte e sogni paradisiaci, a partire da insostituibili "cose da nulla». Su questo piano, anche una vittoria parziale o stentata può essere un passo felice verso il futuro.
