A Thrice-Told Tale is one ethnographer's imaginative and powerful response to the methodological issues raised by feminist and postmodernist critics of traditional ethnography. The author, a feminist anthropologist, uses three texts developed out of her research in Taiwan—a piece of fiction, anthropological fieldnotes, and a social science article—to explore some of these criticisms.
Each text takes a different perspective, is written in a different style, and has different "outcomes," yet all three involve the same fascinating set of events. A young mother began to behave in a decidedly abherrant, perhaps suicidal manner, and opinion in her village was sharply divided over the reason. Was she becoming a shaman, posessed by a god? Was she deranged, in need of physical restraint, drugs, and hospitalization? Or was she being cynically manipulated by her ne'er-do-well husband to elicit sympathy and money from her neighbors? In the end, the woman was taken away from the area to her mother's house. For some villagers, this settled the matter; for others the debate over her behavior was probably never truly resolved.
The first text is a short story written shortly after the incident, which occurred almost thrity years ago; the second text is a copy of the fieldnotes collected about the events covered in the short story; the third text is an article published in 1990 in American Ethnologist
that analyzes the incident from the author's current perspective. Following each text is a Commentary in which the author discusses such topics as experimental ethnography, polyvocality, authorial presence and control, reflexivity, and some of the differences between fiction and ethnography.
The three texts are framed by two chapters in which the author discusses the genereal problems posed by feminist and postmodernist critics of ethnography and presents her personal exploration of these issues in an argument that is strongly self-reflexive and theoretically rigorous. She considers some feminist concerns over colonial research methods and takes issues with the insistence of some feminists tha the topics of ethnographic research be set by those who are studied. The book concludes with a plea for ethnographic responsibility based on a less academic and more practical perspective.
Mrs.Tan 一个发疯的女人。可惜的是,她那个与鬼神对话的自我,不能创造一个足以在被陌生人建构的社会世界中活下去的自我。小说部分我只读了一页多,笔记和民族志于我而言更实用,更乐意读一些。第五章和每章的评述节都很值得读。“在我看来,如果真的存在民族志的危机,它在于我们对受众和受访人的双重责任越来越不确定了。一旦发生冲突,应先照顾哪个呢?”作者似乎想用女性主义民族志书写来批判《写文化》的后现代论调。别扯什么自反性,女性主义者天生带着自反意识。

评分以小说,田野笔记,民族志三种方式来再现同一个“故事”,既是对“实验性民族志”的一次实践,也是戏谑。非学术科班出生的作者气鼓鼓地抱怨后现代主义和女权主义学者的叨逼叨真是太可爱了嘤嘤!
评分对后现代“实验民族志”重形式,轻分析,重写作,轻田野的一次集中回应,以小说、田野笔记、民族志三种方式叙述同一个故事,指出了实验民族志背后的缺陷以及reflexivity的正确方式。作者文笔不错,小说部分的场景描写真心赞。
