Description

Contends that the ambivalence felt by all humans about sex, death and eating other animals can be explained by a set of coordinated principles that are expressed in taboos. Valeri evokes the world of the Huaulu, to show the attractions of the animal world which invades the human world in many ways. About the Author Valerio Valeri (19441998) was professor of anthropology at the University of Chicago and the author of Kingship and Sacrifice: Ritual and Society in Ancient Hawaii.
