  • Africanisms in Secular Life

    Melville J Herskovits•CHAPTER•Americans from Africa•2017

    This chapter considers how certain isolated African traits have held over in American Negro behavior, most often in uninstitutionalized form. The specific survival of African etiquette is the matter of turning the head when laughing, or in speaking to elders or other respected persons of averting the eyes and perhaps the face. The role of the secret societies in the parts of Africa from which the slaves were derived is well known, but has been st…

  • The Human Factor in Changing Africa

    Melville J Herskovits, Melville J Herskovitz•BOOK•Human Factor in Changing Africa•2013

    Focussing on the problems of change and resistance to change that mark the African sub-continent, this book examines Africa's place in the world from earliest times. It considers the nature of its peoples in their prehistoric development, the ways in which their cultures were oriented, and the ways in which these cultures guided their reactions to European ideas. It also assesses the human responses to industrial, technological and economic chang…

    The description of Negro family life in Bahia, Brazil, as given by E. F. Frazier is reviewed. The disintegration of African patterns held to have resulted from white contact, when analyzed in terms of aboriginal tribal family organization, particularly with reference to underlying sanctions, is found to exist to a very slight degree. The Afro-Bahian family manifests traits peculiar to it, but these are the results of accommodation to an accultura…

    This memorandum outlines a framework for the systematic study of acculturation, defined as the processes of cultural change that occur when two or more groups come into continuous firsthand contact. It proposes a set of categories for analysis, including the acceptance, adaptation, and reaction of both the 'donor' and 'recipient' cultures. The authors emphasize the importance of considering factors such as the duration and intensity of contact, t…

    Reports of the occurrence of ‘woman marriage’ in parts of Africa as far distant from one another as northern and southern Nigeria, the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, and the Union of South Africa indicate the possibility that there may be other instances of this institution that have gone unrecorded. The purpose of this paper is therefore to call attention to this striking phase of social organization by describing the form which ‘woman marriage’ takes in…

Dahomey, the major site of their Africa work, is in the country now known as the Republic of Benin. This volume, published now as a companion piece to Northwestern University Pres…

    Opening ParagraphThe origin and development of cultures have long been matters of dispute. From the days of the classical school of anthropology, with its insistence on the universal inventiveness of humanity, to the kulturhistorische Schule of the present day and its doctrine of the poverty of man's ability to devise new means of meeting his environment, the pendulum has swung more and more towards a realization of the importance of cultural bor…

    Melville J Herskovits, Malcolm M Willey•ARTICLE•American Journal of Sociology•1923•Citada por: 5

    There is developing in the United States a definite challenge to the older sociological systems. The anthropological school has, through study of exotic peoples, gathered material wich makes evident the essentially philosophical nature of much sociological writing. The anthropologists are attacking the premises upon which the earlier social systems were erected. Neglect of the element of culture in society is advanced as the reason for sociologic…
