Описание:
A collection of ten of the most brilliant and important essays on ritual yet written. These papers by Victor Turner... are all seminal and distinguished. ? American Anthropologist
A pioneering work of high quality, this collection of anthropological studies provides one of the most detailed records available for an African society—or indeed for any group—of the semantics of ritual symbolism. It combines unusually detailed ethnographic description, based upon field work among the Ndembu of Zambia, with remarkable theoretical sophistication. Professor Turner describes the ritual phenomena in terms both of practice and of their sociological and psychological implications within a preliterate society.
Case histories illustrate the function of ritual in creating community harmony. Data on circumcision rites and medical practices and an essay on color classification have wide implications for comparative analysis. Excellent photographs and useful diagrams complement the text.

Описание: Father Demetrio has been concerned with Philippine Mythology and Folklore for a good number of years now even before these themes moved into the brighter light of more general attention and interest. For some time now he has been interested, not only in gathering together data on Philippine folklore, folk beliefs and practices, but in instituting a dialogue between philosophy and theology and the world of myth and symbol in Philippine context. He has for years labored patiently and perseveringly in the interest and service of this vari-faceted dialogue. Even a cursory reading of these essays will tell the reader that there is much of interest between the covers of this book for a very wide range of students. Father Demetrio has gathered a wealth of information and data, which he presents with care. He raises questions and points for reflection, takes up at least tentative positions which will surely stimulate others to study more deeply and to reflect more fully on the issues which are here brought to light.

Описание: First published in 1999, this volume is the first full length study of one of the most important political institutions of the erstwhile Soviet political system - the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU).
Intellectuals in Politics in the Greek World, first published in 1984, was the first comprehensive study of this recurrent theme in political sociology with specific reference to antiquity, and led to significant revaluation of the role of intellectuals in everyday political life.
The term 'intellectual' is carefully defined, and figures as diverse as Pythagoras, Plato and Aristotle; Isocrates, Heracleides of Ponteius and Clearchus of Soli are discussed. The author examines the difference between the success of an intellectual politician, like Solon, and the failure of those such as Plato who attempted to mould society to abstract ideals.
It is concluded that, ultimately, most philosophers were conspicuously unsuccessful when they intervened in politics: citizens regarded them as propagandists for their rulers, while rulers treated them as intellectual ornaments. The result was that many thinkers retreated to inter-scholastic disputation where the political objects of discussion increasingly became far removed from contemporary reality.
