The Colonial Origins of Modern Social Thought
Beethoven Imagines India
Beethoven's diary entries for 1815-16 reveal the composer's strong interest in India. They also present puzzles: How much can the intellectual historian tease out of a handful of notes? What can they teach us about his inner life? And what do they teach about cultural transmission in an age of revolution in Europe and British colonial expansion? Scholars have thus far dismissed his interest as romantic fantasy. Closer examination, however, reveal…
G régoire M allard . Gift Exchange
Ever since its publication in 1925, Marcel Mauss’s essay The Gift: The Form and Reason for Exchange in Archaic Societies has profoundly influenced discussions across the humanities and social sciences, above all in its home disciplines of anthropology and sociology but also in philosophy, literature, classical studies, and history. With its theory of reciprocities seemingly voluntary but at a deeper level sanctioned by social expectations, it has…

The Return of the Gift
This book is a history of European interpretations of the gift from the mid-seventeenth to the early twentieth century. Reciprocal gift exchange, pervasive in traditional European society, disappeared from the discourse of nineteenth-century social theory only to return as a major theme in twentieth-century anthropology, sociology, history, philosophy and literary studies. Modern anthropologists encountered gift exchange in Oceania and the Pacifi…

Reliving an age of heroes with Patrick O'Brian
This article weighs the claims to authenticity of historical and fictional forms of reenactment by studying the Aubrey/Maturin novels of Patrick O'Brian and the subsequent waves of reenactment and commentary that have grown up around them. Considered in turn are the movie Master and Commander, the novels themselves and O'Brian's historical sources
The Travelers' World
Scientific Ethnography and Travel, 1750–1850
The period from the late eighteenth to the mid nineteenth century forms a distinctive era in the history of scientific ethnographic writing. A double framework of technological and political change demarcates its beginnings. On the technological side, advances in mathematics and scientific instrument making facilitated accurate navigation over the thousands of miles of a world sea voyage. On the political side, the era opens with the British vict…

Weber's Historical Concept of National Identity
Max Weber was a vehement nationalist all his public life, from his Freiburg Inaugural Address and other writings of the 1890s to his political speeches of the First World War. I wish to explore a paradox that emerges from his scholarly writings, above all The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism: The advocate of German political and cultural hegemony radically undermined his era's conventional definitions of nationhood. Neither linguisti…
Weber's Protestant Ethic
The historical relationship between Protestantism, capitalism, and democracy remains one of the most controversial intellectual themes of out time. Max Weber's famous thesis about the link between the 'Protestant ethic' and the 'spirit of capitalism' and its dissolution in his own era has been both widely acclaimed and heatedly disputed since its publication in 1904–5. This volume, the result of an international, interdisciplinary effort, throws …

Fate and Utopia in German Sociology, 1870-1923

Liebersohn portrays his subjects as thinkers who were deeply immersed in the politics and poetry of their time, …

Leopold von Wiese and the ambivalence of functionalist sociology
Spencer is dead', wrote Talcott Parsons at the beginning of The Structureof Social Action, 'but who killed him and how ? This is the problem'. In this study, which was both the foundation of Parsons' structural-functionalism and a major reinterpretation of the history of modern social science, Spencer stood for a vanquished schoolof social thought. He represented positivism at the suicidal extreme where its naive individualism fell apart, paradox…
