{"product_id":"sex-and-repression-in-savage-society-3","title":"Sex and Repression in Savage Society","description":"\u003cp\u003eDuring the First World War the pioneer anthropologist Bronislaw Malinowski found himself stranded on the Trobriand Islands, off the eastern coast of New Guinea. By living among the people he studied there, speaking their language and participating in their activities, he invented what became known as 'participant-observation'. This new type of ethnographic study was to have a huge impact on the emerging discipline of anthropology. In \u003cem\u003eSex and Repression in Savage Society\u003c\/em\u003e Malinowski applied his experiences on the Trobriand Islands to the study of sexuality, and the attendant issues of eroticism, obscenity, incest, oppression, power and parenthood. In so doing, he both utilized and challenged the psychoanalytical methods being popularized at the time in Europe by Freud and others. The result is a unique and brilliant book that, though revolutionary when first published, has since become a standard work on the psychology of sex.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54239703990616,"sku":"9781138834903","price":117.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781138834903.jpg?v=1777606244","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/sex-and-repression-in-savage-society-3","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
