内容説明
With a new introduction by Thomas Beidelman
This series of Classics in African Anthropology is primarily drawn from a distinct family of texts which dominated the academic analysis of society in mid-20th century Africa. The texts reproduced are significant yet often neglected, and have stood the test of time.
John Middleton's classic study on the Lugbara was originally published in 1960. New edition published in association with the International African Institute
North America: Transaction Books; Germany: Lit Verlag
