In this paper, I advance the position that knowledge about the universals of form perceived by the visual system is fundamental to a theory of how art communicates. I focus on how the perceptual system uses the universal property of symmetry to recognize and classify form. I propose that the symmetries that structure design parts in non-representational geometric patterns metaphorically encode a culture's fundamental relationships about the world. This metaphorical use of the property of symmetry is illustrated by showing how bifold symmetries in ceramic design embody Puebloan concepts of life.

AbstractRecent cutbacks in research funding and the burgeoning population of anthropology graduate departments may soon force cultural anthropologists to recognize what their archaeological colleagues have long known: their own “backyard” is a field for fertile research. Specifically, cultural anthropologists may turn increasingly to using long-neglected data sources - rich in documentation - on Anglo-Saxon America. This paper briefly investigates some reasons for the study of American historical data and presents a preliminary analysis of some data. 相似文献

The concept of the keystone species has a long history in ecological analysis, although its validity remains controversial.
Anthropological researchers have recently coined the term cultural keystone species, but have not demonstrated any significant
differences from existing treatments of culturally important species. We define cultural keystones according to their systemic
function, as having essential roles in maintaining any level of complexity within a social–ecological system. Examples include
bitter cassava consumption among lowland South American groups such as the Wapishana in Guyana, and commercial cultivation
of carrots in Rurukan Village in Minahasa, Indonesia. These examples are both essential at one level of systemic reproduction:
within the domestic and village economy in the cassava case, and carrots within regional markets. While each is centred upon
a single biological species, the cultural keystone itself is not this species, but a complex incorporating several material
and non-material system elements. 相似文献

Lawlike generalizations can be developed only for variables exhibiting strict constancy in concept formulation. By considering anthropology a space and its basic concepts as dimensions and borrowing from ecology, cultural materialism, and social, political, and cultural anthropology, we develop a 14-dimensional space defined by 42 scaled variables. Dimensional analysis performed yields 14 equations and 28 dimensionless expressions that satisfy them. Additionally, we derive a set of 28 ethnological expressions. Entering scaled data from five societies, we solve for each. Twenty-one expressions yield significant order-ings. Examination of their performance confirms that they function holistically. 相似文献
