Claude Lévi-Strauss was a French cultural anthropologist, regarded as one of the greatest thinkers of the twentieth century. He argued that the 'wild' mind operates with the same structures as the 'civilized' mind and that human traits are universally similar. His observations culminated in his famous book 'Tristes Tropiques' (1955), which established his position as a central figure in structuralism.
