From the Dust Jacket: "This is the third volume of the series A Science of Mythology, in which the author Claude Levi-Strauss gives a Structuralist interpretation of South-American Indian myths. The present volume which, like the others, is written in such a way that it can be read as an independent whole, extends the inquiry to the myth of North, as well as South, America, and moves on from the consideration of the significance of the different states of food, or of certain exceptional 'foods' such as honey and tobacco, to the elucidation of what the myth has to say, directly or indirectly, about the ceremonies associated with eating. In all societies, there is a code of 'tables manners', even when, as in most, there is no table.". First U.S. Edition (so stated). Hardcover. Very Good+ condition/Very Good dust jacket. 8vo. 551pp.

Descripción de la tienda

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.
