Kurzinformation

This new edition of a classic work provides an indispensable introduction to the thought of Mary Douglas.

First published to great acclaim in 1975, this second edition of Implicit Meanings includes a new introduction with Mary Douglas’s reflections on how her ideas have been taken up and how her own thinking has developed over the last forty years.

Implicit Meanings includes writing on the key themes which are associated with Mary Douglas’s work and which have had a major influence on anthropological thought. Essays on animals, food, pollution, risk, joking, sorcery and myth derive from initial fieldwork experiences in Africa. In different ways, the essays probe beneath the surface meanings and seek to expose the implicit understandings which tend to be taken as unchallengeable. Mary Douglas has shown that anthropology can make a central contribution to debates in many academic disciplines, and can also illuminate everyday life.
