The Art of Kula
$12.75 One of the best ethnographies of art ever written. --Howard Morphy, Australian National UniversitybrThis book represents an ideal accomplishment in its demonstration of how art can be instrumental in the reproduction of society. --The Asis Pacific Journal of AnthropologybrNearly a century ago, it was predicted that Kula, the exchange of shell valuables in the Massim region of Papua New Guinea, would disappear. Not only has this prophecy failed to come true, but today Kula is expanding beyond these island communities to the mainland and Australia.This book unveils the many deep motivations and meanings that lie behind the pursuit of Kula. Focusing upon the visually stimulating carved and painted prow boards that decorate canoes used by the Kula voyagers, Campbell argues that these designs comprise layers of encoded meaning. The unique colour associations and other formal elements speak to Vakutans about key emotional issues within their everyday and spiritual lives. How is mens participation in the Kula linked to their desire to achieve immortality? How do the messages conveyed by the canoe boards converge with those presented in Kula myths and rituals? In what ways do these systems of meaning reveal a male ideology that competes with the prevailing female ideology? Providing an alternative way of understanding the significance of Kula in the Trobriand Islands, The Art of Kula makes an influential new contribution to the ethnography of Papua New Guinea.br |

Excerpt from book: THE VOLCANOES OF THE KULA BASIN IN LYDIA. General Description. The chief town of the district, and the one that the writer made his headquarters, is Kula,f the seat of a large carpet industry a place with 12,000 inhabitants, of whom 8500 are Turks, and the rest Greeks. It is situated in 38 33' N. Lat. and 28 42' E. Long., in the eastern part of the vilayet (province) of Aidin, or what was anciently called Lydia, some 125 kilometres E. by N. of Smyrna, in a straight line. It is reached by travelling by rail to Ala Shehir (ancient Philadelphia), a trip of 169 kil. (6 hours), where one spends the night. From Ala Shehir one drives over a good road across the Konurja Mountains, and reaches Kula in about 5 hours. As the only regular accommodation for travellers is a very dirty, noisy, and public khan, one must either bring letters to some of the inhabitants, or trust to someone's hospitality for a lodging. The writer was most kindly received and courteously treated by a Greek named Haji Moise, who several times acted as guide to various places of interest, and to whom the writer wishes to return his thanks.
