Gutes Ex.; Einband leicht berieben; Seiten geringfügig nachgedunkelt. - Englisch. - The Forest People, a study of the BaMbuti Pygmies of the Congo, has become a classic work in the finest tradition of literate anthropology. Its author, Colin M. Turnbull, is a young anthropologist-presently Assistant Curator of African Ethnology at the American Museum of Natural History - who lived among the BaMbuti for-three years, not as a clinical observer from the outside world, but as a friend, learning their customs and sharing their daily life. In this celebrated account, he describes their hunting parties and nomadic camps, their love affairs and ancient ceremonies the molimo, in which the Pygmies praise the forest as provider, protector, and deity; the elima, in which the young girls come of age; and the nkumbi circumcision rites, in which the villagers of the surrounding non-Pygmy tribes attempt to assert their authority over the Pygmies, whose forest home they dare not enter. .
