Sobre El Autor

Alfred L. Kroeber was an American anthropologist whose life was coterminous with the development of American anthropology. His 1902 Ph.D. from Columbia University was the first ever awarded. His book Anthropology, first published in 1923, was the only textbook of its time, and it was enormously mostrar más influential among students, scholars, and the general public. The 1948 edition has the subtitle Race, Language, Culture, Psychology, Prehistory, indicating the range of his interests and his contributions. His concept of "cultural configuration" was influential; his notion of culture as "superorganic" was controversial as well. Much of his research was carried out in California, and he taught at the University of California, Berkeley, for most of his professional life. (Bowker Author Biography) mostrar menos

This is a classic work by the pioneer and leading California ethnographer and linguist researching California Native Americans. This is a large volume printed by the Smithsonian Government Printing Office, and it includes three folding maps. Showing distribution of tribes and tribal village locations. This is a must have for the Native American Library.

Kroeber was the one who found Ishi, the last surviving member of his tribe still living off the land. Kroeber is himself a legend among the early University of California professors interested in Native American culture and language, and this particular volume is surprising detail of linguistic analysis for this period. I have several of these paperbound journals produced by the University of California at Berkeley Press featuring in this case American Archeology and Ethnology, but also Zoological reports in similar format, and find them extraordinary scholarship of all time. Must have for the California Native American Library.… (más)
