Download or read book The Anthropology of Real Life written by Philip Carl Salzman and published by Prospect Heights, Ill. : Waveland Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Anthropology of Real Life is about how events push and pull, oppress and liberate, enhance and destroy people's lives. While people are shaped by their cultures and their position in society, events--whether authored by natural forces, by other people, or by people themselves--take on a life of their own, and become independent forces determining human destinies. An anthropology of events shows the way in which the substance and texture of life change over time, as one major event fades and another arises, itself only to fade and be replaced by yet a new event.
