Originally published in 1982, James Clifford's analytical biography
of Maurice Leenhardt (1878 - 1954) - missionary, anthropologist,
founder of French Oceanic studies, historian of religion, and
colonial reformer - received wide critical acclaim for its insight
into the colonial history of anthropology. Drawing extensively on
unpublished letters and journals, Clifford traces Leenhardt's life
from his work as a missionary on the island of New Caledonia (1902
- 1926) to his subsequent return to Paris where he became an
academic anthropologist at the Ecole pratique des hautes etudes,
where he followed Marcel Mauss and was succeeded in 1951 by Claude
Levi-Strauss.
