The book takes as its focus the nostalgic and violent Gisalo ceremony, one of the most remarkable performances in the anthropological literature. Tracking the major symbolic and emotional themes of the ceremony to their sources in everyday Kaluli life, Schieffelin shows how the central values and passions of Kaluli experience are governed by the basic forms of social reciprocity. However, Gisaro reveals that social reciprocity is not limited to the dynamics of transaction, obligation and alliance. It emerges, rather, as a mode of symbolic action and performative form, embodying a cultural scenario which shapes Kaluli emotional experience and moral sensibility and permeates their understanding of the human condition. 606 $aBosavi (Papua New Guinean people) 606 $aEthnology$zPapua New Guinea 615 0$aBosavi (Papua New Guinean people) 615 0$aEthnology 676 $a305.89/912 700 $aSchieffelin$b Edward L$01527452 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784129603321 996 $aThe sorrow of the lonely and the burning of the dancers$93770306 997 $aUNINA
