Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Wit and Wisdom in Morocco; A Study of Native Proverbs' is a comprehensive exploration of the rich oral traditions and linguistic heritage of Morocco. Compiled by the renowned sociologist and anthropologist Edward Westermarck, this seminal work delves into the profound cultural insights emb…edded within the daily speech of the Moroccan people. The book provides an extensive collection of native proverbs, meticulously recorded and analyzed to reveal the underlying social values, religious beliefs, and practical philosophy of the region.Westermarck's study goes beyond a simple list of sayings; it offers a detailed investigation into the context, usage, and regional variations of these expressions across different tribes and urban centers. By examining the wit and moral guidance found in these proverbs, the author sheds light on the complexities of Moroccan life, from domestic relations and business ethics to spiritual devotion and folklore. This work remains an invaluable resource for scholars of anthropology, linguistics, and North African history, offering a rare window into the traditional mindset and expressive power of the Maghreb. 'Wit and Wisdom in Morocco; A Study of Native Proverbs' stands as a testament to the enduring significance of folk wisdom in understanding human culture.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - First published in 1930, this is the final of Edward Westermarck's trilogy of titles that explore the society, culture and customs of Morocco. Compiled from years of personal research and interviews conducted with local people, this coll…ection of native proverbs addresses such cultural and ideological concepts as marriage and family, hospitality, goodness and arrogance, as well as sayings relating to certain periods, agriculture and weather. With a detailed introductory essay from Westermarck, this is a fascinating work that will provide invaluable insight for students and those with a general interest in Moroccan and North African history and anthropology.
