«Palabra dada» is an anthropology essay by Claude Lévi-Strauss, published by Espasa Calpe in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
The volume brings together materials from the courses Claude Lévi-Strauss taught between 1959 and 1982. In those pages he applies the structural method to mythology, rites and kinship, and shows how they sustain social organization. A gateway to his thought and to ethnology.
The work, translated from French (Paroles données) by Juan Bravo Castillo, was published in the Mañana collection of Espasa Calpe; the edition includes flaps.
It is a work for readers of anthropology, ethnology and philosophy interested in the structuralism of Claude Lévi-Strauss.
Claude Lévi-Strauss was a Belgian-born French anthropologist and ethnologist whose work was key in the development of the theories of structuralism and structural anthropology. He held the chair of Social Anthropology at the Collège de France between 1959 and 1982, was elected a member of the Académie française in 1973 and was a member of the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences in Paris. He received numerous honors from universities and institutions throughout the world.
