Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of Lévi-Strauss's writings from 1941 to 1947 bears witness to a period of his work which is often overlooked but which was the crucible for the structural anthropology that he would go on to develop in the years that followed. Like many European Jewish intellectuals, Lévi-Strauss had sought refuge in New York while the Nazis overran and occupied much of Europe. He had already been introduced to Jakobson and structural linguistics but he had not yet laid out an agenda for structuralism, which he would do in the 1950s and 60s. At the same time, these American years were the time when Lévi-Strauss would learn of some of the world's most devastating historical catastrophes - the genocide of the indigenous American peoples and of European Jews. From the beginning of the 1950s, Lévi-Strauss's anthropology tacitly bears the heavy weight of the memory and possibility of the Shoah. To speak of 'structural anthropology zero' is therefore to refer to the source of a way of thinking which turned our conception of the human on its head. But this prequel to Structural Anthropology also underlines the sense of a tabula rasa which animated its author at the end of the war as well as the project – shared with others – of a civilizational rebirth on novel grounds. Published here in English for the first time, this volume of Lévi-Strauss’s texts from the 1940s will be of great interest to students and scholars in anthropology, sociology and the social sciences generally.

Book Synopsis Beyond Nature and Culture by : Philippe Descola

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Gives to anthropological reflection a new starting point and will become the compulsory reference for all our debates in the years to come.” —Claude Lévi-Strauss, on the French edition Beyond Nature and Culture has been a major influence in European intellectual life since its French publication in 2005. Here, finally, it is brought to English-language readers. At its heart is a question central to both anthropology and philosophy: what is the relationship between nature and culture? Culture—as a collective human making, of art, language, and so forth—is often seen as essentially different from nature, which is portrayed as a collective of the nonhuman world, of plants, animals, geology, and natural forces. Philippe Descola shows this essential difference to be not only a Western notion, but also a very recent one. Drawing on ethnographic examples from around the world and theoretical understandings from cognitive science, structural analysis, and phenomenology, he formulates a sophisticated new framework, the “four ontologies” —animism, totemism, naturalism, and analogism—to account for all the ways we relate ourselves to nature. By thinking beyond nature and culture as a simple dichotomy, Descola offers a fundamental reformulation by which anthropologists and philosophers can see the world afresh. “A compelling and original account of where the nature-culture binary has come from, where it might go—and what we might imagine in its place.” —Somatosphere “The most important book coming from French anthropology since Claude Lévi-Strauss’s Anthropologie Structurale.” —Bruno Latour, author of An Inquiry into Modes of Existence “Descola’s challenging new worldview should be of special interest to a wide range of scientific and academic disciplines from anthropology to zoology . . . Highly recommended.” —Choice

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Marqué par l'expérience de l'exil, ce volume témoigne d'un moment à la fois biographique et historique au cours duquel, comme nombre d'artistes et savants juifs européens, Claude Lévi-Strauss est réfugié à New York. Écrits entre 1941 et 1947, alors qu'il n'a pas encore délaissé ses réflexions politiques, les dix-sept chapitres de ce livre restituent une préhistoire de l'anthropologie structurale. Ces années américaines sont aussi celles de la prise de conscience de catastrophes historiques irrémédiables : l'extermination des Indiens d'Amérique, le génocide des Juifs d'Europe. À partir des années 1950, l'anthropologie de Lévi-Strauss semble sourdement travaillée par le souvenir et la possibilité de la Shoah, qui n'est jamais nommée. L'idée de "signifiant zéro" est au fondement même du structuralisme. Parler d'Anthropologie structurale zéro, c'est donc revenir à la source d'une pensée qui a bouleversé notre conception de l'humain. Mais cette préhistoire des Anthropologies structurales un et deux souligne aussi le sentiment de tabula rasa qui animait leur auteur au sortir de la guerre et le projet - partagé avec d'autres - d'un recommencement civilisationnel sur des bases nouvelles."--Page 4 of cover.
