«La Pensée sauvage» is the anthropology essay by Claude Lévi-Strauss, published by Pocket in paperback (347 pages, in French).
Classic of ethnology: Lévi-Strauss studies thought in its wild state, the classificatory logic prior to its cultivation by culture. He analyses myths, rites, beliefs and other cultural facts as wild beings comparable to natural forms, and traces that logic in areas such as the environment, social institutions or symbolism.
It is number 2 of the Agora collection, in a revised edition. The copy corresponds to the 1985 edition.
For readers interested in anthropology, ethnology and social sciences, as well as in the study of symbolic thought.
Claude Lévi-Strauss was a Belgian-born French anthropologist and ethnologist whose work was key in the development of the theories of structuralism and structural anthropology.
