SOCIAL ANTHROPOLOGY by EVANS-PRITCHARD E. E. Profesior ofSocial Anthropology and Fellow ofAll Souls College, Oxford LONDON COHEN & WEST LTD : COPYRIGHT PRINTtD IS GRKAT BRITAIN BY ROBERT MACLEHOSE AND CO. LTD. THE UNIVERSITY PRESS, GLASGOW b-ZV PREFACE ThesesixlecturesweregivenontheThirdProgramme ofthe B.B.C. in thewinter of1950. Exceptfora few minor verbal alterations they are printed as they were delivered. I thought it unwise to change, or add to, what was written to be spoken within the limits imposed by the medium ofexpression and for a particular purpose and audience. Social anthropology is still little more than a name to most people, and I hoped that broadcast talks on the subject would make its scope and methods better known. I trust that their publication as a bookwill serve the same purpose. As there are few brief introductory guides to social anthropology I believe that this book may also be of use to students in anthropological departments in British and American universities. I have therefore added a short bibliography. I have expressed many of the ideas in these lectures before, and sometimes in the same language. I am grateful for permission to use them again to the Delegates ofthe Clarendon Press and to the Editors ofMan, Black- friars, and Africa} I thank Mr. K. O. L. Burridge for assistance in the preparation of the lectures and my colleagues at the Institute of Social Anthropology at Oxford and Mr. T. B. Radley ofthe B.B.C. for critical comments on them. E. E.
