Radin examines the conditioning of thought and religion practiced among the members of each society and the freedom of individuals to deviate from the group and to affect change. Written in a straightforward, almost conversational style, Radin's discourse is rooted in firsthand accounts. He allows his subjects to speak for themselves by quoting extensively from interviews (many of which he conducted in the course of his own fieldwork), and includes a veritable anthology of poems and songs from the varied traditions. Radin, known in his field for his honesty and integrity, offers brilliant interpretations of myth and symbolism in his exploration of their deeper meanings in each culture. Readers both in and out of the field will appreciate the rich and varied insights of this classic of anthropology. Celebrated anthropologist Neni Panourgia? provides a new introduction to this landmark and pioneering work"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aNYRB Classics Ser. 606 $aEthnophilosophy 606 $aEthnopsychology 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / Cultural$2bisacsh 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / General$2bisacsh 606 $aPHILOSOPHY / Social$2bisacsh 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEthnophilosophy. 615 0$aEthnopsychology. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / Cultural. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / General. 615 7$aPHILOSOPHY / Social. 676 $a306 686 $aSOC002010$aSOC002000$aPHI034000$2bisacsh 700 $aRadin$b Paul$f1883-1959.$0144143 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910162914303321 996 $aPrimitive man as philosopher$92882174 997 $aUNINA
