While acknowledging the biological basis of c…

Totem and Taboo in Retrospect
Freud's explanations of cultural origins waver between being historic and being psychological in character. As history they remain wholly unfounded, but they may prove to contain elements contributing to understanding of the generic human psychology underlying the history of human culture, especially its recurrent or repetitive feature. Psychoanalytic intransigeance as to historic interpretation is due partly to an "overdetermination" in Freud's …

The Dialectic Divisions of the Moquelumnan Family in Relation to the Internal Differentiation of the Other Linguistic Families of California

With a few doubtful exceptions these families stand practically as they were originally determined, and the most recent investigations as yet give but little indication that their number, which is above twenty, will be materially reduced through the discovery of identities resulting from deeper study. As to the number and nature of the subdivisions of thes…

Phonetics of the Micronesian Language of the Marshall Islands
A PHONETIC survey of a number of American Indian languages recently carried on at the University of California revealed certain features common to a number of these tongues that in other respects are distinct. Particularly the stopped consonants are in many cases characterized by being organically only one at each point of articulation, and differentiated according to position in the word. Those that precede vowels are in many languages neither w…
