Patterns of culture
Book • 1934
Ruth Benedict's "Patterns of Culture" is a seminal work in anthropology that explores the diversity of human cultures and the ways in which different societies shape individual behavior and values.
Benedict argues that culture plays a crucial role in shaping personality and social structures.
The book examines three distinct cultures—the Zuni, the Dobu, and the Kwakiutl—to illustrate the diversity of human experience and the ways in which different cultural values shape individual lives.
The book's insights have had a profound influence on anthropological thought and continue to be relevant today.
Its exploration of cultural diversity and its impact on individual lives remains a significant contribution to the field.
