Romantic Motives explores a topic that has been underemphasized in the historiography of anthropology. Tracking the Romantic strains in the the writings of Rousseau, Herder, Cushing, Sapir, Benedict, Redfield, Mead, L騅i-Strauss, and others, these essays show Romanticism as a permanent and recurrent tendency within the anthropological tradition.
