Lévi-Strauss / Levi-Strauss, Claude, 1908- .  
Mythologiques **. Du miel aux cendres.

Publisher: Librairie Plon, Paris [10 Novembre M. CM. LXVI / 1966].
452 p., diagrams; 24 cm. "Les dictons populaires abondent en contrastes de ce genre, qu'on croirait issus d'assonances et d'homophonies propres à chaque langue, plutôt que d'une réflexion qui puise sa substance aux racines mêmes de l'esprit. ...Partant de l'opposition du miel et du tabac, présente aussi chez nous comme l'attestent maintes locutions, mais qui tient une place beaucoup plus considérable dans la vie et la pensée des Indiens de l'Amérique du Sud, on explore à travers leurs mythes deux itinéraires qui se rejoignent... Cette mythology de la disette... se déroule dans un décor rustique à la façon d'une églogue. ...On dévoile donc ici dans la pensée mythique, en plus d'une rationalité latente, une capacité philosophique de s'élever aux abstractions, à laquelle rien d'essentiel n'a manqué... pour franchir le seuil qui eût permis à la science de s'instaurer." Color pictorial paper covers; minor wear, pages darkened, spine faded; VG. stock#22030.

Appr.: | AUD 49.18 CAD 48.18 EUR 30.26 GBP 27.26 JPY 4,090.91 MXN 584.42 ZAR 340.91
