Generative anthropology : ウィキペディア英語版 | Generative anthropology
Generative anthropology is a field of study based on the theory that the origin of human language was a singular event and that the history of human culture is a genetic or "generative" development stemming from the development of language. In contrast to more common theories that examine human culture in terms of a multiplicity of complex cultural differences, Generative Anthropology attempts to understand cultural phenomena in the simplest terms possible: all things human are traced back to a hypothetical single origin point at which human beings first used signs to communicate. ==Eric Gans and the origin of generative anthropology==
Generative Anthropology originated with Professor Eric Gans of UCLA who developed his ideas in a series of books and articles beginning with ''The Origin of Language: A Formal Theory of Representation'' (1981), which builds on the ideas of René Girard, notably that of mimetic desire. However, in establishing the theory of Generative Anthropology, Gans departs from and goes beyond Girard's work in many ways. Generative Anthropology is therefore an independent and original way of understanding the human species, its origin, culture, history, and development.
