More Anthro Classics on Google

by Rex on February 7th, 2007

Following up on Oneman’s latest post, I thought I’d link to some other classics that are online for quick reference. They’re not hard to find but heh, I google so you don’t have to:
Dream and Gibes – the poetry of Edward Sapir

Language by Edward Sapir

Primitive Society by Robert Lowie

Mind of Primitive Man (thanks Oneman!)

Principles of Sociology Herbert Spencer

Myth, Ritual, and Religion Andrew Lang

Suicide by Durkheim (in French)

Head-Hunters Black, White, and Brown

These are just the ones with PDF downloads. Many more are available full-text. They even have copies of old issues of American Anthropologist on there (sssshh—Don’t tell the AnthroSource business model!)

  1. According to Google: “for users outside the U.S., we make determinations [about pdf downloads] based on appropriate local laws.”

    A quick search indicates that users in India and the Czech Republic can download pdfs; I presume there are lots of other countries where this is possible.

    Canada seems to be one of the restrictive countries … unless I am missing something. Any suggestions anyone?

  2. Having looked at your links, however, I notice that there is some kind of user id in the URL. So clicking on the links always gave me a page limit error. If you remove the user data as in http://books.google.com/books?vid=OCLC00715867 it works. Unfortunately this book seems to be the only one available in full text (not pdf) in Germany.
