Abstract

This book examines the contribution of the German biologist Herbert Bach (1926 – 1996) to physical anthropology and human genetics in Eastern Germany. It highlights his scientific achievements and publications, his work as director (1960 – 1993) and lecturer at the Institute of Anthropology in Jena (Germany). In order to trace his contributions, this work outlines the previous historical development of the Institute of Anthropology under Hans Friedrich Karl Günther (1930 – 1935) and Bernhard Struck (1936 – 1960). Bach fostered the cooperation between anthropology and genetics by examining anthropological data within a genetic framework. His major accomplishments included the prehistoric anthropology of former populations in central Germany and the implementation of genetic counseling services in Eastern Germany. As director of the Institute of Anthropology, he advanced anthropometrie and prehistoric anthropology and expanded teaching in content and scope. He elaborated new anthropological curricula of biologists, teachers and physicians. In addition Bach re-built the anthropological institute, shifting its focus from ethnology to genetics and expanding the scope of research and teaching. He also integrated the institute into a network of genetic counseling services. Das Buch befasst sich mit dem Beitrag Herbert Bachs (1926 – 1996) zur Anthropologie und Humangenetik. Untersucht wurden seine wissenschaftlichen Leistungen auf diesen Gebieten, seine wissenschaftsorganisatorischen Aktivitäten, vor allem als Institutsdirektor, sein Wirken als Hochschullehrer und sein publizistisches Werk. Ausgehend von seinen Vorgängern im Institutsdirektorat, Hans Friedrich Karl Günther (1930 – 1935) und Bernhard Struck (1936 – 1960) wird der Erneuerung der Anthropologie in Jena nachgegangen. Hierbei zeigte sich, dass Bach immer vom Grundsatz der engen Verflechtung von Anthropologie und Humangenetik, insbesondere von der Möglichkeit der Kausalanalyse anthropologischer Befunde mit Hilfe der Genetik ausging. Innerhalb des Instituts legte er die anthropologischen Schwerpunkte auf die Entwicklungs- und die Prähistorische Anthropologie, während er die Humangenetik auf Weiterentwicklung und Anwendung der Labordiagnostik sowie auf die humangenetische Beratung konzentrierte. Seine persönlichen Arbeitsgebiete waren die Prähistorische Anthropologie sowie die humangenetische Beratung und deren Grundlagen. Die Lehre weitete er sowohl hinsichtlich des Inhalts als auch Adressatenkreises erheblich aus, wobei er sich unter anderem für die Integration anthropologischer und humangenetischer Lehrgebiete in das Medizinstudium engagierte. Als Direktor wandelte Bach das anthropologisch-völkerkundliche Institut in eine moderne anthropologisch-humangenetische Lehr- und Forschungsstätte um und prägte zugleich den Aufbau des humangenetischen Beratungsdienstes der DDR wesentlich.

Abstract

"In this pithy two-part essay, Marshall Sahlins reinvigorates the debates on what constitutes kinship, building on some of the best scholarship in the field to produce an original outlook on the deepest bond humans can have. Covering thinkers from Aristotle and Lévy- Bruhl to Émile Durkheim and David Schneider, and communities from the Maori and the English to the Korowai of New Guinea, he draws on a breadth of theory and a range of ethnographic examples to form an acute definition of kinship, what he calls the "mutuality of being." Kinfolk are persons who are parts of one another to the extent that what happens to one is felt by the other. Meaningfully and emotionally, relatives live each other's lives and die each other's deaths. In the second part of his essay, Sahlins shows that mutuality of being is a symbolic notion of belonging, not a biological connection by "blood." Quite apart from relations of birth, people may become kin in ways ranging from sharing the same name or the same food to helping each other survive the perils of the high seas. In a groundbreaking argument, he demonstrates that even where kinship is reckoned from births, it is because the wider kindred or the clan ancestors are already involved in procreation, so that the notion of birth is meaningfully dependent on kinship rather than kinship on birth. By formulating this reversal, Sahlins identifies what kinship truly is: not nature, but culture."--Publisher's website.
