Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the classification and naming of plants and animals in traditional societies, the author presents a compelling argument that these patterns arise from an innate human recognition of natural affinities, rather than cultural constructs. The first part delves into the structural aspects of ethnobiological classifications, while the second examines the processes that shape and evolve these systems. This work challenges prevailing anthropological views by highlighting the universal tendencies in how diverse cultures perceive and categorize the natural world.
