Summary
Claude Levi - Strauss: We are all cannibals
The pages that make up the book We are all cannibals father of modern anthropology Claude Lévi-Strauss wrote at the request of the editors of the Italian daily La Repubblica. Texts written from 1989 to 2000 and published in print are now being published as a collection for the first time. Starting each time from a current topic, Lévi-Strauss tackled one of the great contemporary debates. Whether it's about the "mad cow" epidemic, about forms of cannibalism, about racial prejudices associated with ritual circumcision of female and male children, the famous anthropologist and ethnologist encourages us to have a deeper understanding of the society in which we live. Lévi-Strauss also reanalyzes the creative work of Michel de Montaigne, the writer of Essays, which is of fundamental importance for Western modernity.
The texts in this book bear the stamp of the last years of the twentieth century and confirm the lucidity and pronounced pessimism of the great anthropologist. This book, like the previous one (Anthropology and the Modern World), originally appeared in the French edition posthumously, in 2013, four years after Lévi-Strauss's death, and bears witness to his intellectual vitality and the constant, tireless engagement of his scientific-anthropological thought.
