Old World Traits Transplanted (1921)

By Robert Ezra Park and Herbert Adolphus Miller

Book Overview

Old World Traits Transplanted is a book written by Robert Ezra Park and published in 1921. The book is an anthropological study that explores the concept of cultural diffusion, or the way in which traits and customs from one culture are transplanted into another. Park focuses on the United States as a case study, examining the ways in which European cultures have been transplanted and adapted in the American context. He looks at a variety of cultural traits, including language, religion, family structure, and social organization, and traces their origins and transformations as they have been transplanted from Europe to America. The book is an important contribution to the field of anthropology and provides valuable insights into the ways in which cultural exchange and adaptation shape societies over time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
