Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Primitive Mentality In order to get hold, as it were, of the main point - the processes essential to primitive mentality - I have purposely chosen for my analyses the simplest and least ambiguous Of facts. In this way I hoped to lessen the chances Of error which in so complex a subject are very numerous, and to demonstrate more clearly the actual functioning Of the constituent principles of this mentality. I have consequently adhered to the study of what, to primitives, are the unseen powers by which they feel themselves surrounded on all sides - their dreams, the omens they Observe or incite, ' ordeals, bad death, the extraordinary things brought by white people, their remedies, etc. The reader, therefore, must not expect to find here a study Of primitive mentality as it relates to the technique of uncivilized communities (the inventing and perfecting of tools and weapons, the care of animals, construction of buildings, cultivation Of the soil, and so on), or to their oft-times complex institutions, such as the organization of family life, or totemism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this acclaimed book, Torgovnick explores the obsessions, fears, and longings that have produced Western views of the primitive. Crossing an extraordinary range of fields (anthropology, psychology, literature, art, and popular culture),Gone Primitivewill engage not just specialists but anyone who has ever worn Native American jewelry, thrilled to Indiana Jones, or considered buying an African mask. "A superb book; and--in a way that goes beyond what being good as a book usually implies--it is a kind of gift to its own culture, a guide to the perplexed. It is lucid, usually fair, laced with a certain feminist mockery and animated by some surprising sympathies."--Arthur C. Danto, New York Times Book Review "An impassioned exploration of the deep waters beneath Western primitivism. . . . Torgovnick's readings are deliberately, rewardingly provocative."--Scott L. Malcomson,Voice Literary Supplement

Book Synopsis The Cambridge Handbook of Consciousness by : Philip David Zelazo
Download or read book The Cambridge Handbook of Consciousness written by Philip David Zelazo and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-05-14 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Handbook of Consciousness is the first of its kind in the field, and its appearance marks a unique time in the history of intellectual inquiry on the topic. After decades during which consciousness was considered beyond the scope of legitimate scientific investigation, consciousness re-emerged as a popular focus of research towards the end of the last century, and it has remained so for nearly 20 years. There are now so many different lines of investigation on consciousness that the time has come when the field may finally benefit from a book that pulls them together and, by juxtaposing them, provides a comprehensive survey of this exciting field. An authoritative desk reference, which will also be suitable as an advanced textbook.
Book Synopsis Revival: How Natives Think (1926) by : Lucien Lévy-Bruhl
Download or read book Revival: How Natives Think (1926) written by Lucien Lévy-Bruhl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Levy-Bruhl speculates about what he posited as the two basic mind-sets of mankind; "primitive" and "Western." The primitive mind does not differentiate the supernatural from reality, but rather uses "mystical participation" to manipulate the world. Moreover, the primitive mind doesn't address contradictions. The Western mind, by contrast, uses speculation and logic. ‘How Natives Think’ IS an accurate and valuable contribution to anthropology.
