Abstract:
"The volume contains the past and present story of Anthropos Institute, which grew around the journal Anthropos and its founder Wilhelm Schmidt. The book is divided into three sections. The first outlines the history of the Institute, presents the early co-workers of Schmidt, gives an insider's perspective on the development of the journal and opens a new look at Schmidt's leading concept. Section two introduces various local outreach efforts of the Institute in Japan, India, Brazil, Ghana and Papua New Guinea. Finally, some members present their current work. The collection is complemented by an outsider's assessment of the Institute's engagement. The Appendix includes a list of all the members of the Institute"-- Back cover
