The article’s author focuses on two topics, both related to the education of sociology students. One is connected with the course “Cultures and Society”, presenting the threads of anthropological thought necessary in these students’ education. In the curriculum for this course, the monograph Argonauts of the Western Pacific appears in relation to the broader topic of social structure, social differentiation and the foundations behind the sense of community, requiring one to overcome the structural differentiation of society. A question to inevitably arise here is that of the essence of the existence of society, and about what the golden fleece is in societal life. The author finds a continuation of Bronisław Malinowski’s thought expressed in Argonauts in the works of Victor Turner. The second aspect of the paper concerns students’ reaction to the reading of excerpts from the Argonauts of the West Pacific and the title itself of the book.
