A remarkable introduction to cultural studies as relevant today as it was in 1934, Ruth Benedict's groundbreaking study is the book that first brought the concept of "culture" to lay readers. In this fascinating work, Benedict compares the cultures of three peoples: the Kwakiutl of western Canada, the Zuni of the southwestern United States, and the Dobuans of Melanesia. Featuring an introduction by Franz Boas, a preface by Margaret Mead, and a foreword by Mary Catherine Bateson, Patterns of Culture shows the importance culture has on everyday life.
Marriage is set in motion by a hostile act of the mother-in-law. She blocks with her own person the door of her house within which the youth is sleeping with her daughter, and he is trapped for the public ceremony of betrothal. Before this, since the time of puberty, the boy has slept each night in the houses of unmarried girls. By custom his own house is closed to him. He avoids entanglements ...(1回应)

Marriage is set in motion by a hostile act of the mother-in-law. She blocks with her own person the door of her house within which the youth is sleeping with her daughter, and he is trapped for the public ceremony of betrothal. Before this, since the time of puberty, the boy has slept each night in the houses of unmarried girls. By custom his own house is closed to him. He avoids entanglements for several years by spreading his favours widely and leaving the house well before daylight. When he is trapped at last, it is usually because he has tired of his roaming and has settled upon a more constant companion.He ceases to be so careful about early rising. Nevertheless he is never thought of as being ready to undertake the indignities of marriage, and the event is forced upon him by the old witch in the doorway, his future mother-in-law. 引自 V. Dobu

博厄斯文化相对主义在承认文化多元客观存在的前提下，反对进化论认为每种文化的发展都由普遍的、自主的变化过程驱动的观点，认为文化发展取决于一个民族与邻文化互动的历史。 博厄斯的论域中，文化边界①是开放的、可渗透的，而不是阻隔人、物流动的障碍；②是多元的，总是相对于特定的背景、目的和观点而存在。文化边界本身并不起到排斥或包含的作用，并非总能被具象地标示。 文化边界不仅是文化的产物、更是文化表达的前提。...

慎用“国民性”定义，“文化模式比较”也是我研究方向的不太严格的表达。最终社会学启示的是一种结构性表达：在任何一种社会互动或交往当中，一种趋向于结构性的要素一旦被找到，那么它就不仅存在于家庭取向或社会取向的社会当中，也会存在于同类要素所定义的交往或其他群体当中。反之，即使在中国，如果有些交往或群体不具有这类要素，那么某种交往类型也属于其他社会特征。
