Pages : 188
Book Description
Excerpt from Kinship Organisations and Group Marriage in Australia It is becoming an axiom in anthropology that what is needed is not discursive treatment of large subjects but the minute discussion of spécial themes, not a ranging at large over the peoples of the eath past and present, but a détailed examination of limited areas. This work I am undertaking for Australia, and in the present volume I deal briefly with some of the aspects of Australian kinship organisations, in the hope that a survey of our present knowledge may stimulate further research on the spot and help to throw more light on many difficult problems of primitive sociology. We have still much to learn of the relations of the central tribes and their organisations to the less elaborately studied Anula and Mara. I have therefore passed over the questions discussed by Dr Durkheim. We have still more to learn as to the descent of the totem, the relation of totem-kin, class and phratry, and the like; totemism is therefore treated only incidentally in the present work, and lack of knowledge compels me to pass over many other interesting questions. The present volume owes much to Mr Andrew Lang. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
