2. The Sexual Life of Savages in North Western Melanesia The Sexual Life of Savages in North Western Melanesia is a non-fiction book written by Bronislaw Malinowski, a Polish- British anthropologist. The book is an ethnographic study of the sexual practices and beliefs of the Trobriand Islanders, a tribe living in the Western Pacific Ocean. Malinowski conducted extensive fieldwork among the Trobriand Islanders between 1915 and 1918, and the book is based on his observations and interviews with the islanders. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of Trobriand sexual life. Malinowski explores topics such as courtship, marriage, adultery, incest, homosexuality, and prostitution. He also examines the role of sex in Trobriand society, including its connection to social status, power, and religion. Malinowski's approach to the study of sexuality was groundbreaking for its time, as he rejected the prevailing view that sexuality was a taboo subject that should not be discussed openly. Instead, he argued that sexuality was an integral part of human culture and should be studied in the same way as other aspects of social life. The Sexual Life of Savages in North Western Melanesia is considered a classic work of anthropology and has had a significant influence on the study of sexuality and culture. However, it has also been criticized for its ethnocentric perspective and for presenting a limited view of Trobriand sexuality that may not accurately reflect the diversity of sexual practices and beliefs within the tribe.1929.
