This updated and expanded edition furthers our understanding of the potlatch (koo.éex') as a total social phenomenon, with emotional and religious as well as economic and sociopolitical dimensions. The result is a major contribution to both Northwest Coast ethnology and theoretical literature on the anthropology of death.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51916171673888,"sku":"NEW0295994894","price":48.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/symbolic-immortality-the-tlingit-potlatch-of-the-nineteenth-century-naomi-b-pascal-editors-endowment-xx-0295994894","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
