This is a thoroughly updated and revised edition of a popular
classic of modern anthropology. The authors provide summaries of
'Enlightenment', 'Romantic' and 'Victorian' anthropology, from the
cultural theories of Morgan and Taylor to the often neglected
contributions of German scholars. The ambiguous relationship
between anthropology and national cultures is also considered. The
book provides an unparalleled account of theoretical developments
in anthropology from the 1920s to the present, including
functionalism, structuralism, hermeneutics, neo-Marxism and
discourse analysis. There are brief biographies of major
anthropologists and coverage of key debates including totemism,
kinship and globalisation. This essential text on anthropology is
highly engaging, authoritative and suitable for students at all
levels.
