Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About the Book:- The Chief sources of information regarding the early history of civil society are first, the study of races in their primitive condition; and, second, the study of the symbols employed by advanced nations in the constitution or exercise of civil rights. From these studies pursued together, we obtain to a large extent, the power of classifying social phenomena as more or less archaic and thus of connecting and arranging in their order the stages of human advancement. The book is devided into the following chapters, namely, Legal Symbolism and Primitive Life, The form of capture in Marriage Ceremonies, The Origin of the form of capture, On the Prevalence of the Practice of capturing Wives, de facto, Of the rule against Marriage between members of the same Tribe, On the state of Hostility, Exogamy: its Origin-Comparative Archaism of Exogamy and Endogamy, Ancient System of Kinship, and their Influence on the Structure of the Primitive Groups, The Decay of Exogamy. About the Autor:-John Ferguson McLennan FRSE LLD (14 October 1827 16 June 1881), was a Scottish advocate, social anthropologist and ethnologist. He was born in Inverness, the son of John McLennan, an insurance agent, and his wife, Jessie Ross. He was educated in that city, then studied law at King's College, Aberdeen, graduating M.A. in 1849. In 1865, McLennan published Primitive Marriage. In it he argued from symbolic and ceremonial forms of bride kidnapping (see also Types of marriage). His ideas had been partially anticipated by Johann Jakob Bachofen, writing in 1861 on matriarchy, but were independent. McLennan developed from ethnographic data a social evolutionist theory of marriage, and also of systems of kinship according to natural laws. He rejected patriarchal society as an early stage, arguing in favour of agnation as a more basic evolutionary point; he proposed an early model of social groups, a war band mainly male, practicing female infanticide and acquiring female sexual partners, with promiscuity and matrilineality salient features.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the origin of the curious and widespread practice of symbolic 'capture' in marriage ceremonies. The author traces the origins of this tradition to primitive societies where capturing women from other tribes was common due to the prohibition against marrying within one's tribe. Over time, this practice evolved into a symbolic ritual in cultures that had become more peaceful, serving as a reminder of a bygone era. The book draws on a wide range of anthropological and historical sources to support its arguments, providing valuable insights into the evolution of marriage customs and the complex relationship between kinship, marriage, and social structure. By exploring the historical roots of this peculiar symbol, this book sheds light on the intricate ways in which human societies have developed.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the origins and development of social structures in diverse human societies, primarily through the lens of exogamy, the practice of marrying outside one's social group. Drawing on evidence from ancient literature, historical records, and observations of contemporary societies, the author traces the evolution of marriage customs, kinship systems, and inheritance laws. The work explores how inequalities in cultural development have shaped these practices and examines the influence of factors such as warfare, female infanticide, and totemism on the formation of social norms. This comprehensive study offers a nuanced understanding of early human societies, providing valuable insights into the origins of our social institutions and customs.
