In these new essays, a group of experienced ethnographers, a literary critic, and a historian of anthropology, all known for advanced analytic work on ethnographic writing, place ethnography at the center of a new intersection of social history, interpretive anthropology, travel writing, discourse theory, and textual criticism. The authors analyze classic examples of cultural description, from Goethe and Catlin to Malinowski, Evans-Pritchard, and Le Roy Ladurie, showing the persistence of allegorial patterns and rhetorical tropes. They assess recent experimental trends and explore the functions of orality, ethnicity, and power in ethnographic composition."Writing Culture" argues that ethnography is in the midst of a political and epistemological crisis: Western writers no longer portray non-Western peoples with unchallenged authority; the process of cultural representation is now inescapably contingent, historical, and contestable. The essays in this volume help us imagine a fully dialectical ethnography acting powerfully in the postmodern world system. They challenge all writers in the humanities and social sciences to rethink the poetics and politics of cultural invention.

遠在人類墮落之前,闡釋者坐在那裏, 簇擁著他的比喻可信而忠實, 在滿是驚異之中,無所用心地把魯特琴撥弄, 迷失得顛三倒四,不抱任何希冀。 他發齣真心裏帶著躲閃的喊聲: 啊,來吧,談友,請竪起耳朵傾聽! 在以前煽動性的言辭裏,我中傷過,撒謊過, 現在你將知曉,我的...
評分《寫文化——民族誌的詩學與政治學》(以下簡稱《寫文化》)是美國人類學傢詹姆斯·剋利福德與喬治·E﹒馬庫斯編輯的論文集Writing Culture: The Poetics and Politics of Ethnography的漢譯本。較之原版書,漢譯本新增瞭喬治·E﹒馬庫斯為中文版作的序《<寫文化>之後20年的美...
評分不管是科學性的民族誌還是後來的實驗民族誌,甚至是運用影視的、圖片的民族誌,都是在試圖接近曆史社會的真實。 真實是否存在,什麼纔是真正的真實。如果我能迴答這個問題,就解決瞭哲學領域裏麵最終極的問題之一。我認可現有的民族誌裏麵存在著不完整的真實,我也認...

文化錶徵的堅硬地基雖被圍攻,但是替代框架卻隻一直飄在空中,結果也就隻能是 "a serious dream."
評分有幾章抽象而艱澀,感覺好讀的都是熟悉的主題和例子(e.g Marcus關於World system,Fischer談到ethnicity),更像是一本給老練的ethnographers寫的guide book,有些觀點確實是過時瞭。可以跟abu lughod的writing against culture對讀。p.s 感覺自己還是要多提高姿勢水平,familiarize myself with anthropological ways of phrasing

評分艱難地讀過一章‘Representations are social facts: modernity and post-modernity in Anthropology’。鳳凰姐的教材。請三思而後讀。
