More about the book
Exploring Lévi-Strauss's character and intellectual legacy, this book delves into his personal existential and psychological perspectives through a structural analysis of his works, particularly Tristes Tropiques. It examines his critique of cultural evolutionism and his debates with contemporaries like Sartre, highlighting the political ramifications of his views on human progress. The author contextualizes Lévi-Strauss's ideas within the broader struggle of twentieth-century intellectuals with cultural relativism and the complexities surrounding the concept of the primitive.
