Description

Explore a significant work of anthropological study with The Chiga of Uganda by May Edel. Published by Routledge and Transaction Publishers, this book follows the academic tradition established by figures like Franz Boas and Margaret Mead. It serves as a vital descriptive record of a culture during a period of transition, capturing traditional ways of life before they were changed by external contact. This edition is an enlarged and amplified version of the original 1957 publication by Oxford University Press for the International African Institute. By focusing on the perspective of the people themselves, Edel provides a report based on direct field observation and questioning. This text is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in the social sciences, specifically within the fields of anthropology and sociology. It offers a deep look into the history and social structures of the Chiga people of Western Uganda, making it a valuable addition to any academic library or collection of social science literature.
