Introducing Levi-Strauss is a guide to the work of the great French
anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss (1908-2009). The book
brilliantly traces the development and influence of Levi-Strauss'
thought, from his early work on the function of the incest taboo to
initiate an exchange of women between groups, to his identification
of a timeless "wild" or "primitive" mode of thinking - a pensee
sauvage - behind the processes of human culture. Accessibly written
by Boris Wiseman and beautifully illustrated by Judy Groves,
Introducing Levi-Strauss also explores the major contribution that
Levi-Strauss made to contemporary aesthetic history - his work on
American-Indian mythology provides a key insight into the way in
which art itself comes into being. This is an essential
introduction to a key thinker.
