D. APPLETON AND COMPANY'S PUBLICATIONS.
THE ANTHROPOLOGICAL SERIES.
NOW READY.
_THE BEGINNINGS OF ART._ By ERNST GROSSE, Professor of Philosophy in
the University of Freiburg. A new volume in the Anthropological
Series, edited by Professor FREDERICK STARR. Illustrated. 12mo.
Cloth. $1.75.
This is an inquiry into the laws which control the life and development
of art, and into the relations existing between it and certain forms of
civilization. The origin of an artistic activity should be sought among
the most primitive peoples, like the native Australians, the Mincopies
of the Andaman Islands, the Botocudos of South America, and the Eskimos;
and with these alone the author studies his subject. Their arts are
regarded as a social phenomenon and a social function, and are
classified as arts of rest and arts of motion. The arts of rest comprise
decoration, first of the body by scarification, painting, tattooing, and
dress; and then of implements--painting and sculpture; while the arts of
motion are the dance (a living sculpture), poetry or song, with rhythm,
and music.
_WOMAN'S SHARE IN PRIMITIVE CULTURE._ By OTIS TUFTON MASON, A. M.,
Curator of the Department of Ethnology in the United States National
Museum. With numerous Illustrations. 12mo. Cloth, $1.75.
"A most interesting _résumé_ of the revelations which science has made
concerning the habits of human beings in primitive times, and especially
as to the place, the duties, and the customs of women."--_Philadelphia
Inquirer._
_THE PYGMIES._ By A. DE QUATREFAGES, late Professor of Anthropology
at the Museum of Natural History, Paris. With numerous
Illustrations. 12mo. Cloth, $1.75.
"Probably no one was better equipped to illustrate the general subject
than Quatrefages. While constantly occupied upon the anatomical and
osseous phases of his subject, he was none the less well acquainted with
what literature and history had to say concerning the pygmies.... This
book ought to be in every divinity school in which man as well as God is
studied, and from which missionaries go out to convert the human being
of reality and not the man of rhetoric and text-books."--_Boston
Literary World._
