Ruth Landes
Ruth Landes (October 8, 1908, New York City – February 11, 1991, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada) was an American cultural anthropologist best known for studies on Brazilian candomblé cults and her published study on the topic, ''City of Women'' (1947). Landes is recognized by some as a pioneer in the study of race and gender relations.〔(Ruth Landes - University of Nebraska Press )〕 ==Biography==
Ruth Schlossberg was born in Manhattan, the daughter of Russian Jewish immigrants. Her father was Joseph Schlossberg, a co-founder and long-term secretary-general 〔( Shifra Epstein: ''Ruth Schlossberg Landes,'' ''Jewish Women: A Comprehensive Historical Encyclopedia,'' 1 March 2009 Jewish Women's Archive (2005). Accessed 11.1.2010. )〕 of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America.〔(Ruth Landes Is Dead; Anthropologist Was 82 - New York Times )〕 Landes received her B.A. in Sociology from New York University in 1928, and a master's degree from The New York School of Social Work (now part of Columbia University) in 1929, before studying for her doctorate in anthropology at Columbia University. She earned her Ph.D. in 1935 under the mentorship of Ruth Benedict, a pioneer in the field of anthropology and student of Franz Boas.〔(Guide to the Collections of the National Anthropological Archives (#L1) )〕 Benedict had a profound influence on Landes.〔Cole, Sally. "Mrs Landes Meet Mrs. Benedict." American Anthropologist 104.2 (2002): 533-543. Web. 12 January 2010.〕 She was enthralled by the way in which Benedict taught her classes, and with the way she forced the students to think in an unconventional way. Landes also stated that she was never as happy studying anthropology as when she was studying with Benedict and Boas. Landes has recorded that the friendship between herself and Benedict was one of the most meaningful friendships of her life; it was a friendship that encouraged her to expand her thoughts about anthropology and question the social norms of society.〔
