An Anthropology of Names and Naming
Gabriele Vom Bruck
Many philosophers and linguists suggest that names are 'just' labels, but parents internationally are determined to get their children's names 'right'. This book illustrates the intersection of names and naming with current interests in political processes, the relation between bodies and personal identities, and ritual and daily social life.
