Summary: This film recounts the extraordinary career path of Claude Levi-Strauss, the father of structural anthropology, whose theories made an impact on anthropology, linguistics, mythology, and even pop culture studies. Author of A World on the Wane (Tristes Tropiques) and The Savage Mind, Levi-Strauss is a man curious about the nature of man, a confirmed ecologist, and a fierce defender of the diversity of cultures and people. A profound intellectual with the temperament of an artist or poet, Levi-Strauss still dominates the landscape of Western thinking. Consisting of selected interviews from the 1960s through the present, CLAUDE LEVI-STRAUSS IN HIS OWN WORDS presents the anthropologist s story in his own words.
