Claude Lévi-Strauss, padre della moderna antropologia, è una figura cardine per l’intera cultura del Novecento. Le sue idee e i suoi metodi hanno trasformato radicalmente le scienze umane, e grazie alla sua infl uenza il magistero di Albert Camus, di Jean-Paul Sartre e di Simone de Beauvoir ha ceduto il campo alle teorie di Michel Foucault, Roland Barthes e Jacques Lacan. Questa biografia intellettuale ripercorre la lunga parabola di Lévi-Strauss: la formazione in una famiglia ebrea di origini alsaziane, le prime mitiche spedizioni nel Mato Grosso, i turbolenti anni della guerra – la fuga dalla Francia di Vichy a New York e il successivo ritorno a Parigi –, la consacrazione internazionale. Non una cronaca dettagliata della sua carriera, ma la ricostruzione sapiente e originale, fra interviste e ricerche d’archivio, di ciò che rese il suo pensiero così rivoluzionario e riconoscibile. Lévi-Strauss seppe rivolgere il suo sguardo tanto al passato quanto al futuro, cavalcò le nuove tendenze con una precoce passione per le avanguardie. Grazie a Jakobson, scoprì le idee del linguista svizzero Ferdinand de Saussure e iniziò ad applicarle alle sue ricerche. Il linguaggio divenne la metafora per l’analisi della cultura, Lévi-Strauss lo utilizzò per tracciare sulla mappa dei saperi i confini dell’antropologia e definire un nuovo approccio teorico. Al modello fu dato il nome di strutturalismo, destinato a diventare il paradigma del XX secolo. Il poeta nel laboratorio ci rivela un uomo che, diviso tra la vocazione di scrittore e il destino di artiste manqué, infuse all’accademia un’inedita sensibilità artistica, coniugando l’immaginario di un raffinatissimo letterato con il rigore dello scienziato. Il successo del suo pensiero, negli anni sessanta, racconta di un’epoca libera e creativa, un periodo in cui grandi idee e grandi sperimentazioni potevano prendere il volo, quando i frutti di un’intelligenza erano in grado di lasciare una traccia indelebile nella storia della cultura.

Just as surely as Haiti is "possessed" by the gods and spirits of vaudun (voodoo), the island "possessed" Katherine Dunham when she first went there in 1936 to study dance and ritual. In this book, Dunham reveals how her anthropological research, her work in dance, and her fascination for the people and cults of Haiti worked their spell, catapulting her into experiences that she was often lucky to survive. Here Dunham tells how the island came to be possessed by the demons of voodoo and other cults imported from various parts of Africa, as well as by the deep class divisions, particularly between blacks and mulattos, and the political hatred still very much in evidence today. Full of the flare and suspense of immersion in a strange and enchanting culture, Island Possessed is also a pioneering work in the anthropology of dance and a fascinating document on Haitian politics and voodoo.

"The Naked Man is the fourth and final volume [of Mythologiques], written by the most influential and probably the most controversial anthropologist of our time. . . . Myths from North and South America are set side by side to show their transformations: in passing from person to person and place to place, a myth can change its content and yet retain its structural principles. . . . Apart from the complicated transformations discovered and the fascinating constructions placed on these, the stories themselves provide a feast."—Betty Abel, Contemporary Review "Lévi-Strauss uses the structural method he developed to analyze and 'decode' the mythology of native North Americans, focusing on the area west of the Rockies. . . . [The author] takes the opportunity to refute arguments against his method; his chapter 'Finale' is a defense of structural analysis as well as the closing statement of this four-volume opus which started with an 'Ouverture' in The Raw and the Cooked."—Library Journal "The culmination of one of the major intellectual feats of our time."—Paul Stuewe, Quill and Quire

What art is--its very nature--is the subject of this book by one of the most distinguished continental theorists writing today. Informed by the aesthetics of Nelson Goodman and referring to a wide range of cultures, contexts, and media, The Work of Art seeks to discover, explain, and define how art exists and how it works. To this end, Gérard Genette explores the distinction between a work of art's immanence--its physical presence--and transcendence--the experience it induces. That experience may go far beyond the object itself.Genette situates art within the broad realm of human practices, extending from the fine arts of music, painting, sculpture, and literature to humbler but no less fertile fields such as haute couture and the culinary arts. His discussion touches on a rich array of examples and is bolstered by an extensive knowledge of the technology involved in producing and disseminating a work of art, regardless of whether that dissemination is by performance, reproduction, printing, or recording. Moving beyond examples, Genette proposes schemata for thinking about the different manifestations of a work of art. He also addresses the question of the artwork's duration and mutability.

Claude Lévi-Strauss, the 'father of modern anthropology' and author of the classic Tristes tropiques, was one of the most influential intellectuals of the second half of the twentieth century. Dislodging Sartre, Camus and de Beauvoir from the pinnacle of French intellectual life in the 1950s, he brought about a sea change in Western thought and inspired a generation of thinkers and writers, including Michel Foucault, Roland Barthes and Jacques Lacan with his structuralist theories. Lévi-Strauss's bohemian childhood and later studies of the emerging discipline of anthropology in the field and the university led him to mix with intellectuals, artists and poets from all over Europe. Tracing the evolution of his ideas through interviews with the man himself, research into his archives and conversations with contemporary anthropologists, Wilcken explores and explains Lévi-Strauss's theories, revealing an artiste manqué who infused his academic writing with an artistic and poetic sensibility.

The passions have long been condemned as a creator of disturbance and purveyor of the temporary loss of reason, but as Remo Bodei argues in Geometry of the Passions, we must abandon the perception that order and disorder are in a constant state of collision. By means of a theoretical and historical analysis, Bodei interprets the relationship between passion and reason as a conflict between two complementary logics. Geometry of the Passions investigates the paradoxical conflict-collaboration between passions and reason, and between individual and political projects. Tracing the roles passion and reason have played throughout history, including in the political agendas of Descartes, Hobbes, and the French Jacobins, Geometry of the Passions reveals how passion and reason may be used as a vehicle for affirmation rather than self-enslavement.
