«El mono enmascarado: el animal se vistió de hombre» is a sociological essay by Nacho Sierra (Martínez Roca, paperback, 224 pages).
From a sociological and anthropological perspective, the author studies the tension between animal heritage and culture: the human being tries to escape the monkey that lives within and protects itself with social masks against the insecure world of instincts. Sierra investigates what we retain of the animal and what culture has taken from man.
First edition published in 2003 in the Manuales Prácticos collection; text in Spanish.
For readers of philosophy and anthropology interested in the tension between nature and culture.
