Classics

The HAU Classics series reissues works that have shaped the discipline but have become difficult to access, and brings into English texts that anglophone readers have been working around rather than with. The volumes include out-of-print landmarks, revised editions of important monographs, and annotated translations from languages underrepresented in the anthropological mainstream. Each volume is accompanied by original introductory or critical material from scholars who can speak to why the work continues to matter.
