  • In a Broad Sense to Refer to a Whole Series of Events Which Takes Place from the Time a Couple Makes Public
    TZINTZUNTZAN WEDDING: A STUDY IN CULTURAL COMPLEXITY* Stanley H. Brandes University of California, Berkeley I Social anthropologists are becoming increasingly aware that the rules of social behavior are conceptually distinct from the realities of that behavior. Recently both Firth (1959:341-346) and Beattie (1964:37- 38) have refined this analytical distinction by suggesting that there exist three separate, though closely interrelated, dimensions of behavior: first, a dimension of ideals, that is, what people think ought to happen; second, a dimension of expectations, or what people think does happen; and finally, a dimension of reality, or what actually happens, as might be re- corded by some hypothetical observer with perfect perceptual objectivity. Theoretically, ideal forms of social relationships and behavior could be identical with expectations and actual conduct. Needless to say, however, behavior does not always conform to ideals, nor is it always expected to. And for one reason or another, unanticipated circumstances may impose themselves on a social situation, transforming it into something quite different from what anyone had either wanted or foreseen. It is the purpose of this paper to examine the complex inter- play of ideals, expectations, and reality in a Mexican peasant wedding, and to highlight some of the prominent forces which make the reality of social life differ from what people expect or would like it to be. After a brief methodological statement, I shall begin my analysis with a sketch of the most noteworthy features of weddings in the community under consid- eration. I shall follow with an intensive case study of a single wedding.
