Exploring the Written: Anthropology & the Multiplicity of Writing

Eduardo P. Archetti

4.9/5 (30719 ratings)

Description:Ethnography as a genre is different from literature and therefore it cannot be treated in the same way. In this critical dialogue with postmodernist American anthropology, the authors tackle the question of how literature relates to ethnography, not vice versa. Can a novel, for example, be treated as the statement of an informant, as an ethnographic report, or even as an implicit analysis of a cultural or social situation? And in what way can the ethnographer make use of fiction, essays, songs, letters, poetry, drama, newspapers or autobiographies that are produced in the culture which is being studied? The book includes a number of empirical cases from a broad range of cultural settings such as Turkey, Argentina, Mexico, Trinidad, Peru, Colombia, Fiji, Norway and Samoa.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
