Sorrow_Of_The_Lonley

Sorrow Of The Lonley Food and Reciprocity The question I will answer involving the Sorrow of the Lonley and Burning of the Dancers is what the behvior beliefs and differences are in the sharing of food with others in Kaluli society and our American society. I will begin by talking about how Kaluli treat each other when it come to giving and receiving. Next, I will elaborate on how us as Americans treat the gesture of reciprocity. Finally, I will compare and contrast the differences that the two cultures face, and offer some hypothetical solutions that I think wuld make both cultures better. In the Kaluli society, giving and sharing (reciprocity) is a virtual mainstay. Every person in the society will use it in some way, shape, or form in their lifetime. One of the main uses of sharing and giving is to build and maintain realtionships. Considering that reciprocity plays a big part in the marriage ceremonies of the Kaluli people, there seems to be little chance someone could go through life in that culture without becoming familiar with the tactic. The sharing of food is tied strongly with the marraige because of the fact that, like marriage, it symbolizes the consummation of a relationship. food, sharing, kaluli, society, giving, reciprocity, shah, much, guest, american, wedding, two, strong, standard, same, relationships, part, meats, marriage, main, hosts, guests, eat, boy, between, based, young, wife, while, treat, tradition, taboos, something, smoked, sign, receiving
