Corpus Anthropologicum: Compendium Primum

By S N

What if everything we believe about human nature is only half the story-and the other half lies forever beyond our sight?

Corpus Anthropologicum: Compendium Primum is a sweeping, cross-disciplinary exploration of the forces that shape the human mind, society, and civilization. Drawing from psychology, biology, linguistics, economics, philosophy, and history, this work maps the deep structures that govern how we think, behave, cooperate, and conflict.

In an age overwhelmed by noise, outrage, and ideological certainty, this book offers something rarer: a clear, stable framework for understanding the human condition.

Across ten manifesti, Corpus Anthropologicum examines:

The Dual Mind - why our brains evolved for survival, not truthThe Architecture of Language - how words shape perception, memory, and beliefThe Logic of Power - why hierarchy is unavoidable and how it can be restrainedThe Second Inheritance - how culture transmits judgment across generationsThe Economics of Behavior - why incentives, scarcity, and risk shape societiesThe Necessity of Myth - why religion persists even in secular civilizationsThe Weight of History - how past structures continue to govern the present

Each manifesto concludes with a Canonical Statement-a distilled articulation of what can be provisionally trusted about the human world.

Written in a measured, classical style, this compendium is designed for readers who want to understand the world rather than react to it. It does not preach, polarize, or simplify. Instead, it synthesizes the most enduring insights from the human sciences into a coherent map of reality.

Whether you are drawn to psychology, philosophy, anthropology, political science, or the search for meaning itself, Corpus Anthropologicum offers a rare promise: clarity without dogma, depth without jargon, and perspective without ideology.

For readers of Sapiens, The Lessons of History, Behave, and The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, this is a work built not for the moment-but for endurance.
