Editorial Review

Product Description
This book gives a new interpretation of the reception of the new world by the old. It is the first in-depth study of the pre-Enlightenment methods by which Europeans attempted to describe and classify the American Indian and his society. Between 1512 and 1724 a simple determinist view of human society was replaced by a more sophisticated relativist approach. Anthony Pagden uses new methods of technical analysis, already developed in philosophy and anthropology, to examine four groups of writers who analysed Indian culture: the sixteenth-century theologian, Francisco de Vitoria, and his followers; the 'champion of the Indians' Bartolomé de Las Casas; and the Jesuit historians José de Acosta and Joseph François Lafitau. Dr Pagden explains the sources for their theories and how these conditioned their observations. He also examines for the first time the key terms in each writer's vocabulary - words such as 'barbarian' and 'civil' - and the assumptions that lay beneath them. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description

The Northwest Coast of North America was home to dozens of Native peoples at the time of its first contact with Europeans. The rich artistic, ceremonial, and oral traditions of these peoples and their preservation of cultural practices have made this region especially attractive for anthropological study. Coming to Shore provides a historical overview of the ethnology and ethnohistory of this region, with special attention given to contemporary, theoretically informed studies of communities and issues.

The first book to explore the role of the Northwest Coast in three distinct national traditions of anthropology— American, Canadian, and French—Coming to Shore gives particular consideration to the importance of Claude Lévi-Strauss and structuralism, as well as more recent social theory in the context of Northwest Coast anthropology. In addition contributors explore the blurring boundaries between theoretical and applied anthropology as well as contemporary issues such as land claims, criminal justice, environmentalism, economic development, and museum display. The contribution of Frederica de Laguna provides a historical background to the enterprise of Northwest Coast anthropology, as do the contributions of Claude Lévi-Strauss and Marie Mauzé.

5-0 out of 5 stars anthroplogy
This book may be out of print, but it is a great book on anthropological studies

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent intro to anthopology
I used this book for an intro anthropology course, and it proved to bevery interesting on its own,apart from the class itself.Mr. Service'swriting is clear and easily read by those unfamiliar with anthropologicalterms and such.It is a little old (70s) but is still a really goodstandard text.Especially intriguing were the chapters on the !Kungbushmen, the Irish Countrymen, and the Trobriand Islanders.Service does agood job of delineating the line of contact between these civilizations andthose of the west, which helps us to understand how such contact hasnegatively affected these dying cultures.An excellent read for theamateur anthropologist or the casual reader. ...
