AS component units within a complex ancient and today newly important civilization Indian villages offer a challenging field for study of peasant culture and society. This is the first book to bring together authoritative studies of a number of Indian villages each examined in depth by up-to-date techniques. Proceeding from ideas suggested by Robert Redfield in his recent The Little Community the eight social anthropologists who made these studies attempt to evaluate methods of understanding such small communities as wholes. Based on extensive and expert field work the papers in this volume show how the Indian village tends to overflow the forms of thought that have been applied to it. In each of the villages described qualifying or opposing its integrity as a homogeneous and distinctive cultural unit there appear extra-village factors - pilgrimages to sacred shrines; cast and kin ties; economic political and administrative institutions; and proximity to towns highways and railroads.<br /><br />George McClelland Foster Jr born in Sioux Falls South Dakota on October 9 1913 died on May 18 2006 at his home in the hills above the campus of the University of California Berkeley where he served as a professor from 1953 to his retirement in 1979 when he became professor emeritus.

‎Les Incas ou la Destruction de I'empire du Perou‎

‎2 volumes in 1: viii232; 208 pages Octavo 9" x 5 3/4" bound in brown boards with black and gilt label to spine. Variant issue.<br /><br />Jean Francois Marmontel was a French historian and writer a member of the Encyclopediste movement. He was born of poor parents at Bort Occitania Limousin today in Corrèze. After studying with the Jesuits at Mauriac Cantal he taught in their colleges at Clermont and Toulouse; and in 1745 acting on the advice of Voltaire he set out for Paris to try for literary success. From 1748 to 1753 he wrote a succession of tragedies Denys le Tyran 1748;Aristomene 1749; Cleopâtre 1750; Heraclides 1752; Egyptus 1753 which though only moderately successful on the stage secured Marmontel's introduction into literary and fashionable circles. He wrote a series of articles for the Encyclopédie evincing considerable critical power and insight which in their collected form under the title Eléments de Littérature still rank among the French classics. He also wrote several comic operas the two best of which probably are Sylvain 1770 and Zémire et Azore 1771. In the Gluck–Piccinni controversy he was an eager partisan of Piccinni with whom he collaborated in Roland Piccinni 1778 and Atys 1779 both using Jean Baptiste Lully's libretto by Quinault as basis Didon 1783 and Penelope1785. In 1758 he gained the patronage of Madame de Pompadour who obtained for him a place as a civil servant and the management of the official journal Le Mercure in which he had already begun the famous series of Contes moraux. The merit of these tales lies partly in the delicate finish of the style but mainly in the graphic and charming pictures of French society under King Louis XV. The author was elected to the Académie française in 1763. In 1767 he published Bélisaire now remarkable in part because of a chapter on religious toleration which incurred the censure of the Sorbonne and the archbishop of Paris. Marmontel retorted in Les Incas 1777 by tracing the cruelties in Spanish America to the religious fanaticism of the invaders. He was appointed historiographer of France 1771 secretary to the Academy 1783 and professor of history in the Lycée 1786. As a historiographer Marmontel wrote a history of the regency 1788. Reduced to poverty by the French Revolution Marmontel retired during the Reign of Terror to Evreux and soon afterwards to a cottage at Abloville near Saint-Aubin-sur-Gaillon in the département of Eure. There he wrote Memoires d'un père 4 vols. 1804 including a picturesque review of his life a literary history of two important reigns a great gallery of portraits extending from the venerable Jean Baptiste Massillon whom more than half a century previously he had seen at Clermont to Honoré Mirabeau. The book was nominally written for the instruction of his children. It contains an exquisite picture of his own childhood in the Limousin; its value for the literary historian is great. Marmontel lived for some time under the roof of Mme Geoffrin and was present at her famous dinners given to artists; he was welcomed into most of the houses where the encyclopaedists met and was a contributor to the Encyclopédie ou Dictionnaire raisonné des sciences des arts et des métiers. He thus had at his command the best material for his portraits and made good use of his opportunities. After a short stay in Paris when elected in 1797 to the Conseil des Anciens he died at Abloville.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />Spine ends chipped corners bumped chipped and rubbed through chipped at hinges covers rubbed former owner's name on front end paper else a good copy.

‎Instrumentos musicales precortesianos‎

‎378 pages with plates illustrations some folding map bibliography and index. Royal octavo 9 1/4" x 6 3/4" issued in wrappers. Limited to 2000 copies. 2d edition revised.<br /><br />Pre-Columbian musical instruments are mostly wind instruments aerophones. They range from the painted clay panpipes of the Nazca in Peru to the flutes of Mexico as well as the ocarinas that have been excavated throughout the region. Some of these instruments are very intriguing because of their beautiful shape or intricate paintings; others receive little attention because they are plain or simply because they are not easy to recognise as musical instruments. But all arouse our curiosity: who were the people who played them and on what occasions One thing seems certain: music played an important role in pre-Columbian society. This can be deducted from the large number of musical instruments excavated as well as from the numerous images figurines paintings of people singing playing music and dancing. The instruments played their role in social life: they were used during religious festivals and often buried with the dead as funeral gifts. Pre-Columbian music and musical instruments may still be encountered today as forms of 'cultural continuity' or 'cultural revival'. Traditional music of certain contemporary indigenous groups resembles the music of their pre-Columbian ancestors in as far as the musical instruments and the context in which they are used are concerned. And the groups of young people playing traditional music on instruments that already existed in pre-Columbian times may be seen as a means of reaffirming cultural identity.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />Edge wear to wrappers with some tears spine ends lightly chipped else about a very good copy.

‎Indians Before Columbus: Twenty Thousand Years of North American History Revealed by Archaeology‎

‎xiii582 pages with frontispiece maps figures charts bibliography and index. Royal octavo 9 3/4" x 7" bound in original publisher's blue cloth with gilt lettering to spine in original jacket. First edition.<br /><br />From the remains of material culture of early Americans - from fragments of pottery many-storied cliff-houses Indian mounds and stone tools - archaeologists have reconstructed twenty thousand years of American prehistory. Indians before Columbus illustrates for the layman and student through these reconstructions the nature and purposes of archaeology in general and traces in particular the basic trends of cultural development among the pre-Columbian Indians of North America. It summarizes the North American archaeological evidence outlining cultures chronologically in each geographical area. The authors have traced the basic trends in cultural development in each area and have illustrated many of them by the histories of the development of pottery and agriculture. They follow the threads of continuous adaptation to environment of continuous specialization and of independent invention through which the series of regional Indian cultures developed in North America. Different from one another and from their Asiatic predecessors these regional cultures nevertheless interacted upon each other and received stimuli from their Mexican and Central American neighbors.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />Small split at head spine ends edges lightly rubbed.
