"Papua New Guinea, the second largest island in the world after Greenland, is a land where complexity reigns. The extreme diversity of natural environments is reflected in a fragmentation of the people, languages, customs and traditions that is unlike any other country on Earth. It is an ethnic kaleidoscope, a mosaic of languages and cultures - slightly more than seven million inhabitants (with Papua New Guinea and Irian Jaya combined) speak almost one thousand distinct languages, comprising almost a fifth of all the languages spoken on the planet. Papua New Guinea not only hosts the last cannibals on Earth, a topic already much written about, but more importantly, it is also the undisputed home of the world's "last men," Here, in pockets of prehistory hidden from time and by nature, there still survives something of original man, who is required to expend all his efforts, every day, to resolve the problems of food and survival." "This volume, which was written by two travelers and photographers who are experts in reporting from the ends of the Earth, lago Corazza and Greta Ropa, and contains an introduction by anthropologist Nicola Pagano, is dedicated to this heritage of humanity, which will probably be unable to resist the advancement of modernization. This is a work that describes daily life, the difficulties of survival, the magnificent and at times hostile environment, the history, and the biological characteristics of the animals and vegetation - all with the immediacy of a documentary and the directness of a journalistic report."--BOOK JACKET.

Drawing upon his own fieldwork, the author examines and questions a number of very basic interpretations which have been put forth and are apparently widely shared by anthropologists working in New Guinea. He writes primarily about male initiation rites, gender identity, and beliefs associated with those topics, particularly beliefs about blood, semen, and bone. He also deals with problems inherent in anthropological fieldwork, theory, and interpretation. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Rituals of Manhood provides some of the most dramatic and richly textured accounts of ritual passages known to anthropologists of the late twentieth century. When in an earlier time anthropologists and sociologists described collective initiation rituals, the political and gender aspects of these practices were seldom underscored. Today, the power relationships of the body and domination, and the social arena of gender politics are widely regarded as critical to the cultural meaning and interpretation.

High in the mountains of New Guinea are a people untouched by contact with whites-the Mengti people. A baby is born, and given the name Gwe, meaning "seed." One night, as he nestles in his mother's arms, five days' walk away across a freezing mountain range, two white Australian patrol officers and a black policeman are killed in a surprise attack. The Australian press calls it murder. The native warriors call it justice. We see Gwe grow up, save his father's life during an armed conflict, and learn of the goddess inhabiting a towering pine tree. Meanwhile, Alan Hull, studying anthropology in America, travels to New Guinea for research. The young anthropologist who impatiently questions people, demanding "data" and arousing anger, comes to see-intensely-that Gwe's people deserve his respect and kindness; that they have emotions like he does and are not "numbers" to put in notebooks in order to advance his career. Racist preconceptions are opposed with true perception about inner lives on an island.
