Abstract
Alan Macfarlane made four filmed lectures made in a week in September 1988 to introduce Social Anthropology. Types of Society, Themes and Topics, Origins and History, Methods and Questions.They were to introduce first year students in Cambridge who were reading Archaeology and Anthropology to the discipline of social anthropology.
Description
The talks were written, filmed and edited in one week in September 1988. The equipment was extremely basic - an ancient Amiga computer, VHS tapes and a very early analog camera. They are extremely rough, but show the start of what might later be done properly. Re-done in 2008.
