''Facing Mount Kenya'', first published in 1938, is an anthropological study of the people of the Kikuyu ethnicity of central Kenya. It was written by native Kikuyu and future Kenyan president Jomo Kenyatta. The book's introduction was written by anthropologist Bronisław Malinowski, who mentored Kenyatta while both were at the London School of Economics. Malinowski wrote 'As a first-hand account of a representative African culture, as an invaluable document in the principles underlying culture-contact and change and as a personal statement of the new outlook of a progressive African, this book will rank as a pioneering achievement of outstanding merit.' ==Book sections== * Tribal Origin and Kinship System * The Gikuyu System of Land Tenure * Economic Life * Industries * System of Education * Initiation of Boys and Girls * Sex Life among Young People * Marriage System * The Gikuyu System of Government * Religion and Ancestor Worship * The New Religion in East Africa * Magical and Medical Practices * Conclusion 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Facing Mount Kenya」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
