Couverture souple. Zustand: Assez bon. Coll. "Petite Bibliothèque Payot". Vol. n°220. Esotérisme. Magie. Sorcellerie. --- A. M. Hocart (1883-1939) ethnologue et sociologue d'origine française, fit ses études à Oxford et enseigna successivement en Angleterre et au Caire. Au cours d'une carrière malheureusement trop courte, il publia plusieurs ouvrages et de nombreux articles dont ceux qui se trouvent réunis sous le titre Le mythe sorcier. L'idée maîtresse de Hocart est que le mythe, le rituel et le système social sont indissolublement liés et qu'il serait vain de vouloir les étudier séparément. Partout dans le monde, le rituel dépend du mythe, qui en est le texte de référence. Et comme, à l'origine, le groupement social est une association en vue de la célébration du rite, il dépend donc lui aussi du mythe, sur lequel se fonde l'institution de la royauté, des castes, des classes et des clans, et qui justifie leur rôle dans la vie de la communauté. 11x18 cm. 264 p. Broché. Etat correct. Couverture défraîchie insolée un peu tachée. Papier légèrement bruni. Pli net en marge de tête sans conséquence pour la lecture. Pli net sur le 1er plat. Anecdotiques rousseurs.

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Kings and Councillors: An Essay in the Comparative Anatomy of Human Society traces the evolution of the modern state and complex government organization from ancient forms of ritual and social structure. Hocart argues that governance evolved from life-giving ritual activities, with the king figure originating as the leader of these ceremonies. The book's main theme is that all people fundamentally desire the same things (longevity, vitality, health, and contentment) and organize their societies, and eventually their governments, around ritual activities designed to assure the good life. Hocart uses a functional and comparative approach to analyse how different societies, from ancient Greece.…
