Doğal Semboller-Kozmoloji Keşifleri

In Natural Symbols, Mary Douglas claims with a very exciting language and approach that ritual still has a very important place in the modern world. Starting from the observation that there was a move away from formality in social structures and individual attitudes and that ritual was despised, especially in the second half of the twentieth century, Douglas argues that, in fact, an order, a hierarchy, a limitation drive and custom always accompany human existence.

“Natural Symbols is still the most important work that helps understand Mary Douglas' thought. This fact places it among the most important theory books written by anthropologists in the twentieth century.”

—Richard Fardon School of Oriental and African Studies-

“Natural Symbols… One of the great works of the Durkheim tradition.”
