Yapısal Antropoloji Sıfır
Claude Lévi-Strauss'un kendi ismi ile bütünleşmiş yapısal antropoloji anlayışını temellendirdiği bu eseri, çeşitli yazıların derlemesinden oluşmaktadır. Yapısal Antropoloji serisinin birer derleme değil, kitap olarak, yani baştan tanımlamayı hedeflediği antropolojik tartışma uzamına teorik müdahaleler olarak düşünülmesi yerindedir; öte yandan, Lévi-Strauss'un meslek hayatı boyunca antropolojiye, antropolojinin yöntemleri ve nesnelerine dair kavrayışı pek değişmez. Bu istikrar, elinizdeki eserin çarpıcı bir özelliği olarak karşımıza çıkar. Yapısal Antropoloji Sıfır eseri, Tarih ve Yöntem, Birey ve Toplum, Karşılıklılık ve Hiyerarşi, Sanat, Güney Amerika Etnografisi gibi başlıklar çerçevesinde genellikle bilinmeyen, çoğu başta İngilizce olarak çeşitli dergilerde yayımlanmış ve birçok kişi için bulunması imkânsız hale gelmiş önemli metinleri tekrar erişime açıyor. Lévi-Strauss tarafından 1958'de bir kenara bırakılmış bu on yedi makale, içeriklerinden kaynaklanan önemlerinin yanı sıra, yapısal antropolojinin tarih öncesini de genel hatları ile çiziyor. Yapısal Antropoloji Sıfır, bir sağlama yapma yoluyla 1950'lerin ortasında Claude Lévi-Strauss için hem bu girişimin aldığı anlamı hem de teorik projeyi daha iyi kavramaya olanak veriyor.

About the author
Claude Lévi-Strauss
225 books885 followersClaude Lévi-Strauss was a French anthropologist, well-known for his development of structural anthropology. He was born in Belgium to French parents who were living in Brussels at the time, but he grew up in Paris. His father was an artist, and a member of an intellectual French Jewish family. Lévi-Strauss studied at the University of Paris. From 1935-9 he was Professor at the University of Sao Paulo making several expeditions to central Brazil. Between 1942-1945 he was Professor at the New School for Social Research. In 1950 he became Director of Studies at the Ecole Practique des Hautes Etudes. In 1959 Lévi-Strauss assumed the Chair of Social Anthroplogy at the College de France. His books include The Raw and the Cooked, The Savage Mind, Structural Anthropology and Totemism (Encyclopedia of World Biography).
Some of the reasons for his popularity are in his rejection of history and humanism, in his refusal to see Western civilization as privileged and unique, in his emphasis on form over content and in his insistence that the savage mind is equal to the civilized mind.
Lévi-Strauss did many things in his life including studying Law and Philosophy. He also did considerable reading among literary masterpieces, and was deeply immersed in classical and contemporary music.
Lévi-Strauss was awarded the Wenner-Gren Foundation's Viking Fund Medal for 1966 and the Erasmus Prize in 1975. He was also awarded four honorary degrees from Oxford, Yale, Havard and Columbia. Strauss held several memberships in institutions including the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the American Philosophical Society (Encyclopedia of World Biography).
