228,95 kr. "The Mind of Primitive Man" is a book written by Franz Boas, a prominent anthropologist. Originally published in 1911, the book is considered a foundational work in the field of anthropology. Franz Boas is often regarded as one of the founding figures of modern anthropology in North America.In "The Mind of Primitive Man," Boas challenges the prevailing ideas of the time regarding the superiority or inferiority of different cultures. He argues against racial determinism and advocates for cultural relativism, asserting that cultural practices and beliefs should be understood within their specific historical and social contexts.The book addresses topics such as language, myth, art, and social organization among various Indigenous cultures, providing insights into the diversity of human thought and expression. Boas's approach laid the groundwork for a more nuanced and respectful understanding of different cultures, emphasizing the importance of studying societies in their own terms rather than imposing external judgments.

98,95 kr. "In North America, as a whole, anthropologists usually recognize from ten to eleven more or less clearly defined culture areas, the approximate borders of which are indicated on the accompanying map. Yet, in most cases these divisions are not absolute, but relative, for rarely can a group of Indians be found anywhere, however small, that does not show some of the cultural traits of all its immediate neighbors. One of the most striking characteristics of culture distribution is the constant intergradation of traits, so that only in exceptional instances can the cultures of even two neighboring groups be considered exactly alike. Nevertheless, certain groups often possess in common highly characteristic traits, whence they are said to be of the same general types. The divisions on the accompanying map mark off the limits within which the respective sets of characteristic traits seem to predominate. Thus, the various tribes of Plains Indians have a number of peculiar traits whose distribution in more or less complete association is taken as indicating the geographical extent of a type of culture..."

- Franz Boas, James Teit, and Early Twentieth-Century Salish Ethnography
1.113,95 kr. The Franz Boas Papers, Volume 2 explores the development of the ethnography of Salishan-speaking societies on the North American Plateau as revealed through the correspondence between Franz Boas and the Scottish-born James Teit, who married into an Interior Salish family and community and became fluent in the Nlaka'pamux language. The letters between Teit (1864-1922) and Boas (1858-1942) chronicle Teit's varied career as an ethnographer, from shortly after his initial meeting with Boas in 1894 until Teit's death at the age of fifty-eight. A postscript documents Boas's contribution to Teit's legacy through the posthumous publication of the manuscripts Teit left unfinished at his death. Teit made significant contributions to ethnography and the history of southern British Columbia through his photography of the people with whom he worked, his contributions to ethnomusicology and ethnobotany, his anthologies of mythic narrative, and his collections of Interior Salish--primarily Nlaka'pamux--material culture. In addition to collaborating with Boas in the development of Interior Salish ethnography, between 1909 and 1922 Teit worked to support Indigenous groups in British Columbia who were seeking recognition of Aboriginal title and resolution of their outstanding land claims. The Franz Boas Papers, Volume 2 meticulously tracks the impact of the differing career trajectories of Teit and Boas on the primary product of their collaboration--the initial development of the ethnography of societies speaking Interior Salish languages. This second volume of the Franz Boas Papers Documentary Edition is an essential primary source of archival materials for research libraries and for students and scholars of Northwest Coast and Interior Mountain West ethnohistory, Native American and Indigenous studies, history of anthropology, and modern U.S. history. It is also an essential source for Indigenous and settler descendant communities.

200,95 kr. ""An Anthropologist's View of War"" is a book written by Franz Boas, a prominent anthropologist in the early 20th century. The book explores the cultural and social factors that contribute to the phenomenon of war, drawing on Boas' extensive research and fieldwork among various indigenous societies. Boas argues that war is not a universal human behavior, but rather a product of specific historical and cultural contexts. He examines the role of power, ideology, and nationalism in the outbreak of war, as well as the ways in which warfare shapes and is shaped by social structures and cultural practices. Boas also considers the impact of colonialism and globalization on the spread of war and violence around the world. Overall, ""An Anthropologist's View of War"" offers a nuanced and insightful analysis of one of humanity's most complex and enduring problems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
