Rodeo.
Rodeo People Call Their Sport "more A Way Of Vitality Than A Way To Make A Living.
" Rodeo Is, In Fact, A Rite That Not But Expresses A Way Of Life But Perpduates It, Reaffirming In A Ritual Contest Between Man And Animal The Values Of American Ranching Society.
Ellizabeth Atwood Lawrence Uses An Interpretive Approach To Analyze Rodeo As A Symbolic Pageant That Reenacts The "winning Of The West" And As A Stylized Expression Of Frontier Attitudes Toward Man And Nature.
Rodeo Constestants Are The Modern Counterparts Of The Rugged And Individualistic Cowboys, And The Ethos They Inherited Is Marked By Ambivalence: They Admire The Wild And The Free Yet Desire To Tame And Conquer.
Based On Extensive Field Work And Drawing On Comparative Materials From Other Stocl-tending Societies, Rodeo Is A Major Conttibution To An Understanding Of The Role Of Perfornance In Society, The Culturally Constucted View Of Man's Place In Nature, And The Structure And Meaning Of Social Relationships And Their Representations.
