- Summary:
- Consisting of collected interviews from the 1960s through the present, examines the career and contributions of French anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss, father of structural anthropology, confirmed ecologist, and defender of diversity of cultures and peoples. His theories made an impact on linguistics, mythology, and pop culture studies as well as anthropology.
- Through interviews from the 1960s, the extraordinary career path of Claude Levi-Strauss, the father of structural anthropology, whose theories made an impact on linguistics, mythology, and even pop culture studies, is recounted. Strauss was a man curious about the nature of man, a confirmed ecologist, and a fierce defender of the diversity of cultures and people. A profound intellectual with the temperament of an artist or poet, he still dominates the landscape of Western thinking.
