Více o knize
Challenging the longstanding myths surrounding the origins of society and religion, this book critiques the romanticized views of primitive cultures that have emerged since Darwin's time. It examines historical interpretations of concepts like the noble savage, connecting them to modern indigenous movements and popular beliefs. Through an analysis of key anthropological and legal texts, it reveals how flawed theories have shaped academic and political discourse. This influential work is essential for anyone engaged in anthropological theory and post-colonial discussions.
