Malinowski, Herskovits, and the Controversy Over Economics in Anthropology
Bronislaw Malinowski and Melville Herskovits were founding contributors to the anthropological study of economic life-Malinowski as a pioneering ethnographer in Melanesia and a late-career ethnographer in Oaxaca, Mexico, and Herskovits as the leading exponent of comparative studies. The definition of their respective approaches to the study of economic life began in the 1940s with Karl Polanyi and in the 1950s with Raymond Firth, culminating in t…

Malinowski's last word on the anthropological approach to language
This article reproduces an archived and previously unpublished paper by Bronislaw Malinowski entitled "The anthropological approach to language" which he delivered to a meeting of the elite Monday Night Group in the Institute of Human Relations at Yale University in November 1941. The social "context of situation" of Malinowski's seminar presentation is reconstructed together with a brief consideration of his contribution to linguistic theory. A …

From Muyuw to the Trobriands
Skirts, yams and sexual pollution
This article examines notions of sexual pollution in the gender constructions of Kalauna, a community on Goodenough Island in the Massim of southeast New Guinea. The pragmatics of belief in sexual pollution control both male and female sexuality in such a manner that the values of food production — and hence of male "nurture" — are exalted. The pivotal belief in a "cuckold's disease" underwrites acute male rivalry, typically expressed in competit…

Magicians of Manumanua
Miraculous Voices
Ritual sounds produced by the secret men's cult of the Ilahita Arapesh (East Sepik Province, Papua New Guinea) evoke feelings which, even to the operators, are mysterious in perceptual origin and therefore iconically apposite to, and validating of, the mysterious "spirit voices" these sounds are claimed literally to be. This paper examines the proposition that certain sounds affect the central nervous system in a manner that arouses feelings of t…
The Divine Kingship of the Jukun
Opening ParagraphFor many social anthropologists the problem of divine kingship was solved in 1948 when Professor Evans-Pritchard, in a well-known Frazer Lecture, put a respectably structural interpretation on the facts of the Shilluk case. Divine kingship in Africa was rather an embarrassment because the central tenet of its doctrine-that the king must be killed when he fell sick or grew senile-was usually beyond empirical verification. There wa…

Doctor Bromilow and the Bwaidoka wars
ON 14 MAY 1968 THE VILLAGE OF MATAITA ON EASTERN GOODENOUGH ISLAND in the D'Entrecasteaux Group of Papua held a massive food distribution to celebrate the termination of a year-long festival.1 The event was attended by many hundreds of people from all over the island as well as from the adjacent coaist of Fergusson Island, the sombre green bulk of which looms across Moresby Strait. In the host hamlet, stacks of yams, taro and bananas awaited dist…

Fighting with Food. Leadership, Values and Social Control In a Massim Society
The Melanesians of Goodenough Island, off the eastern coast of New Guinea, have developed the principle of gift-giving to an extraordinary degree. Instead of resorting to arms in their quarrels or demanding compensation for offences, they present enemies and offenders with pigs and yams in order to shame them. This custom of coercive gift-giving operates at various organizational levels and through two main institutional forms: competitive food e…

The ethnography of Malinowski
Bronislaw Malinowski is one of the founding fathers of modern social anthropology and the innovator of the technique of prolonged and intensive fieldwork. His writings about the Trobriand Islands of Papua were in their time the most formative influence on the work of British social anthropologists and are of perennial interest and importance. They produced a revolution in the aims and field techniques of social anthropologists, and the method he …
