Sexual Life of Savages

The Sexual Life of the Savages Book Description Readers will expect to find in this book that literary charm combined with profound wisdom that has made the author the most widely read of anthropologists. They won't be disappointed. Vivid metaphors, pictorial descriptions make the Trobriands a living reality; We see them as they are and feel as if we share their island life. -Spectator- The author examines all areas of the Trobriands' sexual life, its relationship with the complex system of taboos and emotional-sexual relationships, and even its parts in the unreal world of dreams. By comparison, most ethnological studies of little-known human societies remain simple sketches of the major differences that exist between us and them. Professor Malinowski's book must be consulted many times before being able to assimilate the data gathered here, far more than just a simple reading. The book carries an irresistible power. As Havelock Ellis stated in the foreword, there is no doubt that it will be a classic that will increase in value over time. Language: TurkishPublisher: Kabalcı Publishing House
