Primitive Art

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the analytical traits of primitive art, this work by Franz Boas explores the fundamental characteristics that define this genre. Originally published in 1927, it reflects Boas's expertise as a pioneering anthropologist who significantly influenced the field, including establishing the first Ph.D. program in anthropology in the U.S. The book is republished with a new introductory biography, offering insights into Boas's contributions to anthropology and his academic journey from physics to cultural studies.
