Trade Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Reprinted 1975. 169 pp. Solidly bound copy with moderate external wear, crisp pages and clean text. Extra mylar wrapper. An Ex-University-Library (Barnard College, NY, NY)-Book with all the usual and standard signs (stamps, stickers,envelope,etc.). Synopsis: In these insightful 1973 papers two leading authorities make a wide-ranging review of ideas and materials on bridewealth and dowry. Bridewealth and dowry have certain obvious similarities in that they both involve the transmission of property at marriage, the usual interpretation suggesting that what distinguishes them is the direction in which the property travels - in the case of bridewealth, from the husband and his kin to the wife and her kin, and in the case of dowry, vice versa. The authors of these 1973 papers criticise this interpretation as oversimplified, and analyse the two institutions in the contexts of Africa, with its preponderance of bridewealth, and South Asia, where dowry is the commoner institution. Dr Goody seeks to explain these geographical differences in terms of the basic structure of the societies and the rules governing the inheritance of property. Dr Tambiah considers these institutions in India, Ceylon and Burma as two kinds of property transfer, examining Indian juridical concepts, and relating these to the concepts and practices of Ceylon and Burma.…

After a tumultuous and quite disastrous beginning, the Catholic Church in the Swan River Colony began to prosper under Father Martin Griver, who for 37 years laboured as a missionary priest and, for the last 16 years of his life, was the 2nd Catholic Bishop of Perth.…

Softcover. Zustand: FINE. WEST AUSTRALIANA Biography Religion -In 1849 Griver was recommended to Bishop Rosendo Salvado and joined the missionaries gathered in Barcelona for service in Western Australia. In December he landed at Fremantle with Dr Joseph Serra and his band of monks, but opposition to Serra by one of the party on the voyage became on shore a public struggle to prevent the monks from joining the mission at New Norcia, and to have Serra ousted from the leadership. Griver had hoped to work with Salvado in the new northern diocese of Port Victoria but after some difficulty led the monks instead to New Norcia. Though appointed superior by Serra, Griver was soon sent with seventeen brothers to Guildford where they arrived after an arduous and difficult journey on foot. From Guildford he went to Serra's new foundation, New Subiaco, and then to Perth. In 1851 he had to handle a delicate situation which had arisen from the unexpected return of Bishop John Brady, and his marked difference of opinion with Serra. Griver then had only a scanty knowledge of English but displayed great competence, courage and an edifying humility in difficult circumstances. He had wanted to join the Benedictines but, because of Serra's mismanagement, did not become a professed monk. He discharged his priestly office with zeal and prudence in Perth and Fremantle, travelled all over the country and in 1858 visited the colony's furthest outposts, from Albany in the south and Geraldton in the north. Many benefited from his knowledge of medicine on these tours. pp. 100 #0617 Elizabeth's Bookshops have been one of Australia's premier independent book dealers since 1973.
