    Symbols (Routledge Revivals) : Public and Private (2013)
    Florence : Taylor and Francis | Ann Arbor, Michigan : ProQuest
    Details
    ISBN: 9781136505584
    Sprache: Englisch
    Seiten: 1 Online-Ressource (467 pages)
    Serie: Routledge Revivals
    DDC: 302.2
    Kurzfassung: This book first published in 1973 offers a broad survey of the study of symbolic ideas and behaviour. The study of symbolism is popular nowadays and anthropologists have made substantial contributions to it. Raymond Firth has long been internationally known for his field research in the Solomons and Malaysia, and for his theoretical work on kinship, economics and religion. Here from a new angle, he has produced a broad survey of the study of symbolic ideas and behaviour. Professor Firth examines definitions of symbol. He traces the history of scientific inquiry into the symbolism of religious cults, mythology and dreams back into the eighteenth century. He compares some modern approaches to symbolism in art, literature and philosophy with those in social anthropology. He then cites examples in anthropological treatment of symbolic material from cultures of varying sophistication. Finally he offers dispassionate analyses of symbols used in contemporary Western situations - from hair-styles to the use and abuse of national flags; from cults of Black Jesus to the Eucharistic rite. In all this Professor Firth combines social and political topicality with a scholarly and provocative theoretical inquiry.

    Tikopia Ritual and Belief (Routledge Revivals) (2012)
    New York : Taylor and Francis | Ann Arbor, Michigan : ProQuest
    Details
    ISBN: 9781136505447
    Sprache: Englisch
    Seiten: 1 Online-Ressource (386 pages)
    Serie: Routledge Revivals
    DDC: 390.0996
    Kurzfassung: First published in 1967, this book gives some of the fruits of the author's study of Tikopia ways of thought as the result of three field expeditions. Most Polynesians became Christians more than a century ago but Tikopia had a substantial pagan population until quite recent years. This book of essays describes rites and beliefs of a people who still maintained their traditional institutions remote from civilization. Studies of totemism, of magic and of beliefs in the fate of the soul in the afterworld, not only throw new light on Polynesian attitudes but also contribute some novel ideas to the interpretation of standard theoretical problems in social anthropology. Studies of rumour, suicide, and a new essay on spirit mediumship, also provide links between social anthropology and psychology. A general review based on the author's visit in 1966 describes the modern position after the adoption of Christianity.
