the antropologist that i admire



Margaret Mead.



Margaret Mead is the anthropologist that i admire. 
She is a great cultural anthropologist, she was born in December 16, 1901 in Philaelphia, Pennsylvania, EEUU, and she died in November 15, 1978 in New York, EEUU, with 75 years. She was married three times, her first marriage was with Luther Cressman, her second husband was Reo Fortune and her last husband was to the bristish anthropologist Gregory Bateson, she had a daughter with him, Mary Catherine Bateson.
She estudied her doctorate in anthropology in the Columbia Univesity. In this University she met Franz Boas and Ruth Benedict, they were the biggest support and help to enter ethnography and they were her closet friends, with them she shared the currents of anthropology calleds historical particularism and cultural relativism
She travel to Samoa and Guinea for she did her ethnography. Her greats and more famous text in this places was "Coming of age in Samoa" in 1928 and "Growing up in New Guinea" in 1930. Other famous book by her was "Sex and temperament in three primitive societies" in 1935.
I admire her, because she was one of the first women in the anthropolgy in the mundial level, she was discusting the biological anthropologist and she elevated the role of the womens in the socials sciences.
She studied and became interested in studies that nobody had tried in anthropology, such as raising children and the role of women in different cultures, an example of this last was the studie of womens adolescents in Samoa.
And for me, this studies was a great contributions in the cultural and social anthropology.
