Anthropologist Claude L�vi-Strauss was among the most influential thinkers of the twentieth century. In this rigorous study, Maurice Godelier traces the evolution of his thought. Focusing primarily on L�vi-Strauss’s analysis of kinship and myth, Godelier provides an assessment of his intellectual achievements and legacy. Meticulously researched, L�vi-Strauss is written in a clear and accessible style. The culmination of decades of engagement with L�vi-Strauss’s work, this book will prove indispensible to students of his thought and structural anthropology more generally.
