Watching The English, The Hidden Rules of English Behaviour
| PDF | 11 MB
In "Watching The English" anthropologist Kate Fox takes a revealing look at the quirks, habits and foibles of the English people. She puts the English national character under her anthropological microscope, and finds a strange and fascinating culture, governed by complex sets of unspoken rules and byzantine codes of behaviour. The rules of weather-speak. The ironic-gnome rule. The reflex apology rule. The paranoid-pantomime rule. Class indicators and class anxiety tests. The money-talk taboo and many more... Through a mixture of anthropological analysis and her own unorthodox experiments (using herself as a reluctant guinea-pig), Kate Fox discovers what these unwritten behaviour codes tell us about Englishness. Book's contest:Introduction - Anthropology at Home Part One: Conversation Codes (The Weather, Grooming-talk, Humour Rules, Linguistic Class Codes, Emerging Talk-rules: The Mobile Phone, Pub-talk) Part Two: Behaviour Codes (Home Rules, Rules of the Road, Work to Rule, Rules of Play, Dress Codes, Food Rules, Rules of Sex, Rites of Passage)
