Blood Relations: Menstruation and the Origins of Culture

Editura: YALE UNIV PR

Anul aparitiei: 1995

This original and ingenious book presents a new theory of the origins of human culture. Integrating perspectives of evolutionary biology and social anthropology within a Marxist framework, Chris Knight rejects the common assumption that human culture was a modified extension of primate behavior and argues instead that it was the product of an immense social, sexual, and political revolution initiated by women. "Chris Knight has drawn widely on classical Marxist theory and structuralism in the Levi-Strauss tradition, as well as on the contemporary offerings from feminism, paleontology and sociobiology, to weld together a grand synthesis on the origins of culture. . . . Interestingly, . . . Knight's hypothesis does seem to provide a simple explanation for a number of biological and cultural phenomena that have hitherto been regarded as unrelated."-Robin Dunbar, Times Higher Education Supplement "An immense work of documentation and close argument. . . . A magnificent work of materialistic science constructed from anthropological field-work and tribal myth."-Peter Redgrove, Times Literary Supplement "Chris Knight brings evidence from a wide range of disciplines to take forward the ...

The Evolution of Culture: A Historical and Scientific Overview

Editura: RUTGERS UNIV PR

Anul aparitiei: 1999

The Evolution of Culture seeks to explain the origins, evolution and character of human culture, from language, art, music and ritual to the use of technology and the beginnings of social, political and economic behavior. It is concerned not only with where and when human culture evolved, but also asks how and why. The book draws together original contributions by archaeologists, anthropologists, linguists and psychologists. By integrating evolutionary biology with the psychological, social and cultural sciences, it shows how contemporary evolutionary thinking can inform study of the peculiarly human phenomenon of symbolic culture. The contributors call into question the gulf currently separating the natural from the cultural sciences. Human capacities for culture, they argue, evolved through standard processes of natural and sexual selection, and properly be analyzed as biological adaptations. The book is fully referenced and indexed, and contains a guide to further reading. It has been written to be accessible to the growing multidisciplinary readership now asking questions about human origins.

Salt and Light: 39 Original Poems

Editura: AUTHORHOUSE

Anul aparitiei: 2010

This book contains a variety of poems embracing many aspects of human experience. Typically, the poems touch on the poet's sensitivity towards his God, the Christian God, the God of The Bible. They also attempt to capture some of his deeper feelings towards a variety of subjects common to us all. Subjects such as belief, faith or the lack of it, the appreciation of beauty in nature or creation, and the inward beauty which human beings sometimes reflect, are but a few such subjects the poet explores. These poems are the observations of a man who has tried to grasp the moment, so to speak, and to share it with you. The moment one believes, loves, forgives, dares to dream, is moved to laugh or cry, is challenged or changed, has his or her eyes opened to see or feel something he or she had hitherto not seen, heard or even thought of before. In short, these are the impressions of a man who likes to play with words. Enjoy them
