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.

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...
評分正如王銘銘的書評(見下麵論壇)一樣,本人略讀此書之後,非常激動和欣快。但王提齣的尖銳問題又給我當頭一棒,這裡的複雜問題,讓我難以入睡。 王藉此書的先鋒觀點(86年的,在當代拆哪還是比較先鋒甚至激進吧),錶達瞭對拆哪學術界官僚的厭倦甚至憤怒。很明顯,他所影射的...

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...
評分民族誌既是一種寫作文本,又是一種研究方法,兩者相互貫通。一方麵叫“做田野”,通過諸如觀察與參與觀察、係譜法、重要文化報道人、生命史、主客位相結閤等民族誌田野工作方法,獲取第一手資料,呈現一個“整體論”的成果,將這個社會/文化以一種“整體的想象”傳達給讀者,這...

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
