    Abstract: "We delight in prolonging and inflating the childhood experiences of our offspring. In images of the naughty but nice Buster Brown and the coquettish but sweet Shirley Temple, Americans at mid-century offered up a fantastic world of treats, toys, and stories, creating a new image of the child as "cute." Holidays such as Christmas and Halloween became blockbuster affairs, vehicles to fuel the bedazzled and wondrous innocence of the adorable child. All this, Gary Cross illustrates, reflected the preoccupations of a more gentle and affluent culture, but it also served to liberate adults from their rational and often tedious worlds of work and responsibility." "But trouble soon entered paradise. The "cute" turned into "cool" as children, following their parental example, embraced the gift of fantasy and unrestrained desire to rebel against the saccharine excesses of wondrous innocence in deliberate pursuit of the anti-cute. Movies, comic books, and video games beckoned to children with the allures of an often violent, sexualized, and increasingly harsh worldview. Unwitting and resistant accomplices to this commercial transformation of childhood, adults sought - over and over again, in repeated and predictable cycles - to rein in these threats in a largely futile jeremiad to preserve the old order. Thus, the cute child - deliberately manufactured and cultivated - has ironically fostered a profoundly troubled ambivalence toward youth and child rearing today." "Expertly weaving his way through the cultural artifacts, commercial currents, and patenting anxieties of the previous century, Gary Cross offers a vibrant and entirely fresh portrait of the forces that have defined American childhood."--BOOK JACKET.

    Abstract: At the height of British colonialism, conversion to Christianity was a path to upward mobility for Indian low-castes and untouchables, especially in the Tamil-speaking south of India. Kent examines these conversions, focusing especially on the experience of women converts and the ways in which conversion transformed gender roles and expectations.

    Abstract: "Peruvian author Ricardo Palma (1838-1919) was one of the most popular and imitated writers in Latin America during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. As head of the National Library in Lima, Palma had access to a rich source of historical books and manuscripts. His historical miscellanies, which he called "traditions," are witty anecdotes about conquerors, viceroys, clergymen, and other notorious characters of Peru's colonial and republican past."--Jacket

    Abstract: Lower Chinookans is a reference to the group of Chinookan language speakers living on the northwest coast of the United States in the states of Washington and Oregon and on both banks of the Lower Columbia River from its mouth to just beyond the Willamette River. The group consists of the Chinook proper, the Clackamas, Clatsop, Shoalwater Chinook, Wahkiakum, and Cathlamet (Kathlamet). This collection of 10 English language documents deals with the Chinookans of the Lower Chinook region. The major time focus of this collection is from the late eighteenth century through the nineteenth. The most comprehensive traditional ethnographies of the Lower Chinookans can be found in Ray's Lower Chinook ethnographic notes and Silverstein's Chinookans of the Lower Columbia. Other major topics discussed in other documents include songs, beliefs about sickness and death, and humor and verbal irony

    Keywords: Sia Indians
    Abstract: The Zia are a Keres-speaking pueblo tribe who live on the Jemez River, 35 miles northwest of Albuquerque, New Mexico. This collection of eight documents is about the Zia. The classic work is by Leslie White and was based on his fieldwork from 1928-1929 and return visits during the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s. He focused mostly on secret societies, including membership, recruitment, and ceremonies. Two of the documents are by Hoebel. The first is a brief account of Zia history and culture that was also published in the Handbook of North American Indians. The second is about Zia law. There is no private law. Clans and lineages have no role in the legal process. All cases are brought before the governor and a council comprised of the heads of secret societies. Lange has written a detailed account of the famous Green Corn Dance; Hawley et al. a nutritional study; Polese on the Zia sun symbol; and Stevenson on child birth. The bibliography of citations to works on Zia Pueblo is also taken from vol. 9 of the Handbook on North American Indians, Southwest

    Keywords: Icelanders
    Abstract: This collection of 23 documents is about the Early Icelanders and covers the time span from the first Norse settlement in Iceland around 874 A.D. to Iceland's incorporation into the kingdom of Norway in approximately 1262 A.D. The major focus is on the Commonwealth Period from 930 to 1262 A.D. Much of the cultural data gathered for this period comes from the analysis and interpretation of a number of Icelandic sagas written primarily in the thirteenth century. The most comprehensive study of the social, economic, and political changes taking place in Medieval Iceland over a four hundred year period is The dynamics of medieval Iceland by Durrenberger. This study begins with the first Norse settlement in Iceland around 874 A.D. and ends with the incorporation of Iceland into the kingdom of Norway in 1264 A.D. Fourteen of these documents were originally published in: From sagas to society, edited by Gísli Pálsson

    Abstract: These 22 documents are about the inhabitants of Iceland. The time span ranges from about the middle of the nineteenth century to the late twentieth, with a particular focus on the period of the l940s to the 1980s. Most of the works are widely diversified in subject coverage, although there is emphasis on the economy, especially in regard to the marine fisheries and whaling. The status of women and women's movements in Iceland are the topics of the works by Kristmundsdóttir, Skakptadóttir, and Björnsdóttir. Gurdin's is a study of domestic violence in Iceland. Other topics covered by other authors include ethnolinguistics, zooarchaeology, kinship, literacy and literacy practice, and an analysis of the Icelandic sagas as works of fiction or historical fact

    Keywords: Bakairi Indians ; Bakairí ; Bakairí
    Abstract: This collection of 7 documents is about the Bakairi, a Carib-speaking group living on Upper Xingu River in the state of Mato Grosso in south central Brazil. The German explorer Steinen wrote the earliest accounts of the Bakairi based on his one-month stay with them during his 1884 trip down the Xingu river and his travels among the tribes located along the Kulisehu River, in the Upper Xingu area in 1887. Abreu wrote an early account of Bakairi language, mythology, and religion based on 1892 Portuguese texts. Schmidt includes the history of the Bakairi subsequent to Steinen's expedition and up to the year 1927. During this period of time, numerous socio-political and cultural changes took place among the Bacairi. He describes three different Bacairi groups: the Eastern, Western, and Xinguanos. Altenfelder Silva describes the culture of the Bakairi Indians of Mato Grosso circa 1940 including their technology, kinship terminology, pantheon, ceremonies, shamanism, and the series of ritualistic seclusions, or uanki, that occur at intervals during the life cycle. Oberg's account is based on his fieldwork among the people living on the Government Indian Post on the Rio Paranatinga during June 1947. It should be noted that the information presented in this source, obtained primarily from informants, relates to an earlier period in Bacairi history (ca. 1907) when they lived on the Rio Kuliseu. Data presented pertain to settlement patterns, subsistence activities, house types, furniture, language, culture history and early European contacts, population, dress and personal ornaments, organization of labor, social organization, the life cycle, puberty rites, marriage, burial, shamanism, games, ceremonialism and mythology

    Keywords: Gisu (African people) ; Gisu ; Gisu
    Abstract: This collection of three documents about the Bagisu, all in English, covers a time span from the late nineteenth century to approximately 1989. The Bagisu or Gisu live on the western slopes of the now extinct volcano Mount Elgon in eastern Uganda. Lugisu (Masaba), the language of the Bagisu, is a Bantu language in the larger Niger-Congo group of languages. A concise summary of most major features of Bagisu ethnography from around the 1890s to 1954 can be found in LaFontaine. This is supplemented by Roscoe's earlier account of Bagisu ethnography that deals with information from the late nineteenth through the early twentieth centuries. While this latter document does contain some unique cultural data, LaFontaine questions the validity of some of Roscoe's information (e.g., the existence of cannibalism among the Bagisu). Heald's work on the Bagisu is based on the author's fieldwork in Central Bugisu from 1965-1969, and is a detailed study of the various ways in which violence is expressed in Bagisu society and the manner in which it is brought under control. This document presents data on the reputation and history of violence among the Bagisu, statistics on homicide, the association of violence with manhood and the expression of anger, the ordeal of circumcision, behavior and treatment of witches and thieves, hostility management in the community, and the establishment of vigilante groups and drinking companies to control violence

    Keywords: Bakairi Indians ; Bakairí
    Abstract: This collection of 7 documents is about the Bakairi, a Carib-speaking group living on Upper Xingu River in the state of Mato Grosso in south central Brazil. The German explorer Steinen wrote the earliest accounts of the Bakairi based on his one-month stay with them during his 1884 trip down the Xingu river and his travels among the tribes located along the Kulisehu River, in the Upper Xingu area in 1887. Abreu wrote an early account of Bakairi language, mythology, and religion based on 1892 Portuguese texts. Schmidt includes the history of the Bakairi subsequent to Steinen's expedition and up to the year 1927. During this period of time, numerous socio-political and cultural changes took place among the Bacairi. He describes three different Bacairi groups: the Eastern, Western, and Xinguanos. Altenfelder Silva describes the culture of the Bakairi Indians of Mato Grosso circa 1940 including their technology, kinship terminology, pantheon, ceremonies, shamanism, and the series of ritualistic seclusions, or uanki, that occur at intervals during the life cycle. Oberg's account is based on his fieldwork among the people living on the Government Indian Post on the Rio Paranatinga during June 1947. It should be noted that the information presented in this source, obtained primarily from informants, relates to an earlier period in Bacairi history (ca. 1907) when they lived on the Rio Kuliseu. Data presented pertain to settlement patterns, subsistence activities, house types, furniture, language, culture history and early European contacts, population, dress and personal ornaments, organization of labor, social organization, the life cycle, puberty rites, marriage, burial, shamanism, games, ceremonialism and mythology

    Keywords: Sia Indians
    Abstract: The Zia are a Keres-speaking pueblo tribe who live on the Jemez River, 35 miles northwest of Albuquerque, New Mexico. This collection of eight documents is about the Zia. The classic work is by Leslie White and was based on his fieldwork from 1928-1929 and return visits during the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s. He focused mostly on secret societies, including membership, recruitment, and ceremonies. Two of the documents are by Hoebel. The first is a brief account of Zia history and culture that was also published in the Handbook of North American Indians. The second is about Zia law. There is no private law. Clans and lineages have no role in the legal process. All cases are brought before the governor and a council comprised of the heads of secret societies. Lange has written a detailed account of the famous Green Corn Dance; Hawley et al. a nutritional study; Polese on the Zia sun symbol; and Stevenson on child birth. The bibliography of citations to works on Zia Pueblo is also taken from vol. 9 of the Handbook on North American Indians, Southwest

    Abstract: This collection of 23 documents is about the Early Icelanders and covers the time span from the first Norse settlement in Iceland around 874 A.D. to Iceland's incorporation into the kingdom of Norway in approximately 1262 A.D. The major focus is on the Commonwealth Period from 930 to 1262 A.D. Much of the cultural data gathered for this period comes from the analysis and interpretation of a number of Icelandic sagas written primarily in the thirteenth century. The most comprehensive study of the social, economic, and political changes taking place in Medieval Iceland over a four hundred year period is The dynamics of medieval Iceland by Durrenberger. This study begins with the first Norse settlement in Iceland around 874 A.D. and ends with the incorporation of Iceland into the kingdom of Norway in 1264 A.D. Fourteen of these documents were originally published in: From sagas to society, edited by Ǵisli Ṕalsson

    Abstract: Throughout its history as a social science, demography has been associated with an exclusively quantitative orientation for studying social problems. As a result, demographers tend to analyse population issues scientifically through sets of fixed social categories that are divorced from dynamic relationships and local contexts and processes. This volume questions these fixed categories in two ways. First, it examines the historical and political circumstances in which suchcategories had their provenance, and, second, it reassesses their uncritical applications over space and time in a diverse

    Keywords: Sia Indians
    Abstract: The Zia are a Keres-speaking pueblo tribe who live on the Jemez River, 35 miles northwest of Albuquerque, New Mexico. This collection of eight documents is about the Zia. The classic work is by Leslie White and was based on his fieldwork from 1928-1929 and return visits during the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s. He focused mostly on secret societies, including membership, recruitment, and ceremonies. Two of the documents are by Hoebel. The first is a brief account of Zia history and culture that was also published in the Handbook of North American Indians. The second is about Zia law. There is no private law. Clans and lineages have no role in the legal process. All cases are brought before the governor and a council comprised of the heads of secret societies. Lange has written a detailed account of the famous Green Corn Dance; Hawley et al. a nutritional study; Polese on the Zia sun symbol; and Stevenson on child birth. The bibliography of citations to works on Zia Pueblo is also taken from vol. 9 of the Handbook on North American Indians, Southwest

    Keywords: Bakairi Indians ; Bakairí
    Abstract: This collection of 7 documents is about the Bakairi, a Carib-speaking group living on Upper Xingu River in the state of Mato Grosso in south central Brazil. The German explorer Steinen wrote the earliest accounts of the Bakairi based on his one-month stay with them during his 1884 trip down the Xingu river and his travels among the tribes located along the Kulisehu River, in the Upper Xingu area in 1887. Abreu wrote an early account of Bakairi language, mythology, and religion based on 1892 Portuguese texts. Schmidt includes the history of the Bakairi subsequent to Steinen's expedition and up to the year 1927. During this period of time, numerous socio-political and cultural changes took place among the Bacairi. He describes three different Bacairi groups: the Eastern, Western, and Xinguanos. Altenfelder Silva describes the culture of the Bakairi Indians of Mato Grosso circa 1940 including their technology, kinship terminology, pantheon, ceremonies, shamanism, and the series of ritualistic seclusions, or uanki, that occur at intervals during the life cycle. Oberg's account is based on his fieldwork among the people living on the Government Indian Post on the Rio Paranatinga during June 1947. It should be noted that the information presented in this source, obtained primarily from informants, relates to an earlier period in Bacairi history (ca. 1907) when they lived on the Rio Kuliseu. Data presented pertain to settlement patterns, subsistence activities, house types, furniture, language, culture history and early European contacts, population, dress and personal ornaments, organization of labor, social organization, the life cycle, puberty rites, marriage, burial, shamanism, games, ceremonialism and mythology

    Abstract: This collection of 23 documents is about the Early Icelanders and covers the time span from the first Norse settlement in Iceland around 874 A.D. to Iceland's incorporation into the kingdom of Norway in approximately 1262 A.D. The major focus is on the Commonwealth Period from 930 to 1262 A.D. Much of the cultural data gathered for this period comes from the analysis and interpretation of a number of Icelandic sagas written primarily in the thirteenth century. The most comprehensive study of the social, economic, and political changes taking place in Medieval Iceland over a four hundred year period is The dynamics of medieval Iceland by Durrenberger. This study begins with the first Norse settlement in Iceland around 874 A.D. and ends with the incorporation of Iceland into the kingdom of Norway in 1264 A.D.

    Keywords: Chinook Indians
    Abstract: Lower Chinookans is a reference to the group of Chinookan language speakers living on the northwest coast of the United States in the states of Washington and Oregon and on both banks of the Lower Columbia River from its mouth to just beyond the Willamette River. The group consists of the Chinook proper, the Clackamas, Clatsop, Shoalwater Chinook, Wahkiakum, and Cathlamet (Kathlamet). This collection of 10 English language documents deals with the Chinookans of the Lower Chinook region. The major time focus of this collection is from the late eighteenth century through the nineteenth. The most comprehensive traditional ethnographies of the Lower Chinookans can be found in Ray's Lower Chinook ethnographic notes and Silverstein's Chinookans of the Lower Columbia. Other major topics discussed in other documents include songs, beliefs about sickness and death, and humor and verbal irony

    Abstract: "This provocative new survey of the past 150 years of Fashion covers everything from Haute Couture to the High Street, from Coco Chanel to Alexander McQueen. Christopher Breward explores fashion as a significant cultural force, examining the glamorous world of Vogue and advertising, the relationship between fashion and art, and fashion as a global enterprise." "Venturing beneath the surface, Breward considers how our ideas about hygiene and comfort have influenced the direction of style, and how important dress is in forming our identity and status - from Flapper to New Look, Dandy to Punk."--Jacket

    Keywords: Lepcha (South Asian people) ; Lepcha ; Lepcha
    Abstract: The Lepcha inhabit the southern and eastern slopes of Mount Kanchenjunga in the Himalayas, primarily located in the states of Sikkim and West Bengal (Darjeeling District), India. Some Lepcha also live in Nepal and Bhutan. It is believed the Lepcha originally came from either Mongolia or Tibet. The Lepcha language is classified in the Tibeto-Burman family. The Lepcha adopted the Tibetan Buddhist religion. This collection on the Lepcha contains 13 documents that focus on the Lepcha in India and on the time period from the late 1800s up until ca. 1950. Except for Foning who is a native Lepcha and lived in the region from 1938 to 1984, all the documents are based on research conducted before 1953. The earliest works are an Risley's anthropometric study from 1886-1888 and Waddell's collection of songs from 1891. Gorer and Siiger have written the most complete monographs on the Lepcha. Gorer's traveling companion, Morris, has written a more popular account. In a series of articles translated from the German, Nebesky-Wojkowitz writes about hunting and fishing, legends, religious paraphernalia, and funerals. Jest also writes about Lepcha religion and Hermanns on Lepcha myths

    Keywords: Yemenites ; Jemeniten ; Jemeniten
    Abstract: Yemen is on the southwestern corner of the Arabian Peninsula. Yemenis are a Muslim and Arabic-speaking people who are mainly Arabs. Most Yemenis live in small, widely dispersed farming villages and towns, but it is no longer possible to make a living just by farming. Many Yemenis depend on income from males working abroad, particularly in Saudi Arabia. Islamic Yemen has two major sects. In the northern and eastern parts of Yemen are members of the Shia sect and in the southern and coastal regions are Shafis, or orthodox Sunnis. These two regions also differ in other respects; for example, tribal organization is more important in the northern and eastern parts of Yemen. This file contains one document, a cultural summary that was originally published in the Encyclopedia of World Cultures, 1994. The cultural summary includes information on history, settlement patterns, economy, kinship, marriage, family, sociopolitical organization, and religion

    Abstract: Jamaica was an English colony for 300 years while the majority of the population were African slaves. This situation produced a syncretic indigenous Jamaican culture. Sugar was the main industry until the slaves were emancipated. A dual economy exists with bauxite mining and alumina processing being the most important legitimate economic activity while the illegal growing and export of marijuana is the most important cash crop. This file contains one document, a cultural summary from the Encyclopedia of World Cultures that was published in 1995. It contains information on history, economy, settlements, kinship, marriage, family, sociopolitical organization, and religion

    Keywords: Munduruku Indians ; Mundurucú ; Mundurucú
    Abstract: The Mundurucu live in the Brazilian states of Pará and Amazonas. Mundurucu subsistence focuses on agriculture supplemented with hunting and fishing. There are two groups of Mundurucu who live in the basins of two major tributaries of the Amazon, the Tapajós and Madeira rivers. The Río Tapajós group is the geographical focus of this collection of sixteen documents. The temporal focus is on the period of 1952-1953 when Robert and Yolanda Murphy did their field work in the area, and 1979-1981 when Burkhalter did his study of the Mundurucu. The eight studies by the Murphys comprise the major portion of this file and cover a wide range of ethnographic topics relevant to the Mundurucu. The document by Burkhalter and Murphy describes socio-cultural changes that have taken place in Mundurucu society from the end of the Murphy's field work to that of Burkhalter's. Historical depth to the file is provided in the works of Tocantins and Martius, both of which provide brief ethnographic summaries of the Mundurucu for the nineteenth century

    Keywords: Dominicans ; Dominikaner ; Dominikaner
    Abstract: The island of Hispaniola, one of the Greater Antilles, lies between Cuba and Puerto Rico in the Caribbean Sea. The Dominican Republic occupies the eastern two-thirds of Hispaniola; the western third is Haiti. The contemporary population physically reflects European and African ancestry and most of the population is officially classified as "mulatto." Dominican society is based on skin color and class distinctions. The production and export of sugarcane has been the major economic activity of the Dominican Republic. Although the government is modeled after that of the United States, Dominican politics since colonial times has mostly reflected who controls the presidency. Dominicans speak Spanish. This file contains one document, a cultural summary that appeared in the Encyclopedia of World Cultures in 1995. The cultural summary includes information on history, settlement patterns, economy, kinship, marriage, family, sociopolitical organization, and religion

    Abstract: This collection about the Zapotec consists of 14 documents, all in English, with a focus on the valley Zapotec of Oaxaca, and with special emphasis on the towns of Mitla, Teotitlán del Valle, Díaz Ordaz, San Miguel del Valle, San Sebastian Teitipac, and Talea de Castro. Good overviews of Zapotec ethnography are provided by Nader and Whitecotton. Nader summarizes both Zapotec ethnography and the literature on the Zapotec as of the middle of the 1960s. Whitecotton provides information on prehistory, as well as history and ethnographic research in the area as of the 1960s and 1970s. Two works in the collection are primarily community studies, providing fairly complete ethnographic coverage on the communities investigated. Parsons, based on fieldwork in the 1930s, is a study of Mitla, while Taylor is a study of Teotitlán del Valle dating to the 1950s. Mitla has received a good deal of attention from ethnologists and further information on the community may be found in Messer and Williams. Control of water resources is an important aspect of land use in the Oaxaca valley. Downing's study concentrates on a single community (Díaz Ordas) to show how water rights, water usage, and conflicts over water change during the annual cycle with changing water availability and demand. Zapotec ideas about illness and health are discussed in Messer, which also covers the classification and use of plants in Mitla, and the report by O'Nell and Selby, which discusses susto, a debilitating folk illness characterized by depression, loss of appetite, etc., which the authors consider to be a culturally patterned reaction to psychological stress. Other ethnographic topics include inheritance and its effects on social solidarity; changes in women's roles and authority in production, ritual, and local politics from 1920-1989; the production and marketing of mutates; and harmony ideology, with particular reference to justice and social control

    Keywords: Yahgan Indians ; Yahgan ; Yahgan
    Abstract: The Yahgan occupied the southern coast of the island of Tierra del Fuego. They are considered to be extinct. Most of the information on the Yahgan is from the nineteenth century. The Yahgan language was a language isolate with no known relationship to any other. The Yahgan lived in groups of one to three nuclear families who wandered in an area until the food supply was used up and then moved on. There were no higher level social or political groups. This collection contains three documents. The time focus of the file is from the early nineteenth century to ca. 1925. The primary source of information on the Yahgan was written by Martin Gusinde in the early twentieth century

    Keywords: Bena (African people) ; Bena ; Bena
    Abstract: The Bena are agriculturalists who live in two different ecozones in Tanzania. The Bena of the Hills live in the highlands of Njombe District, Iringa Region, Tanzania and the other, the Bena of the Rivers, live in the Ulanga valley in southwestern Morogoro Region. The Bena speak a Southern Bantu language of the Niger-Congo language family. In pre-colonial times the Bena were organized into villages which were largely autonomous and warring. They were conquered by the Hehe and, in the late nineteenth century, became subject to German colonists. There are eight documents in this collection, and the time focus is from ca. 1930 to 1965. Swartz studied the highland Bena and his research focuses on Bena politics, social organization, and psychology, especially in regard to rural development projects. Culwick has written an ethnography and history of the Ulanga Valley Bena, covering a variety of subjects, including religion, customary law, property, agricultural production, mutual aid, bride wealth, family and kin relationships, clan system, and medicine men

    Keywords: Munduruku Indians
    Abstract: The Mundurucu live in the Brazilian states of Paŕa and Amazonas. Mundurucu subsistence focuses on agriculture supplemented with hunting and fishing. There are two groups of Mundurucu who live in the basins of two major tributaries of the Amazon, the Tapaj́os and Madeira rivers. The Ŕio Tapaj́os group is the geographical focus of this collection of sixteen documents. The temporal focus is on the period of 1952-1953 when Robert and Yolanda Murphy did their field work in the area, and 1979-1981 when Burkhalter did his study of the Mundurucu. The eight studies by the Murphys comprise the major portion of this file and cover a wide range of ethnographic topics relevant to the Mundurucu. The document by Burkhalter and Murphy describes socio-cultural changes that have taken place in Mundurucu society from the end of the Murphy's field work to that of Burkhalter's. Historical depth to the file is provided in the works of Tocantins and Martius, both of which provide brief ethnographic summaries of the Mundurucu for the nineteenth century
