The anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss was one of the greatest
intellectuals of the twentieth century. His work has had a profound
impact not only within anthropology but also linguistics, sociology
and philosophy. In this short book he examines the nature and role
of myth in human history, distilling a lifetime of writing into a
few sharp insights. It is a crystalline overview of many of the
basic ideas underlying his work, including the theory of
structuralism and the difference between 'primitive' and
'scientific' thought and shows why Levi-Strauss remains a hugely
important intellectual figure. With a new foreword by Patrick
Wilcken.
