Book The Ethnographer s Magic and Other Essays in the History of Anthropology

Download or read book The Ethnographer s Magic and Other Essays in the History of Anthropology written by George W. Stocking and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Stocking has been widely recognized as the premier historian of anthropology ever since the publication of his first volume of essays, Race, Culture, and Evolution, in 1968. As editor of several publications, including the highly acclaimed History of Anthropology series, he has led the movement to establish the history of anthropology as a recognized research specialization. In addition to the study Victorian Anthropology, his work includes numerous essays covering a wide range of anthropological topics. The eight essays collected in The Ethnographer's Magic consider the emergence of anthropology since the late nineteenth century as an academic discipline grounded in systematic fieldwork. Drawing extensively on unpublished manuscript materials, the essays focus primarily on Franz Boas and Bronislaw Malinowski, the leading figures in the American and the British academic fieldwork traditions. According to George Marcus of Rice University, the essays "represent the most informative and insightful writings on Malinowski and Boas and their legacies that are yet available." Beyond their biographical material, the essays here touch upon major themes in the history of anthropology: its powerfully mythic aspect and persistent strain of romantic primitivism; the contradictions of its relationship to the larger sociopolitical sphere; its problematic integration of a variety of natural scientific and humanistic inquiries; and the tension between its scientific aspirations and its subjectively acquired data. To provide an overview against which to read the other essays, Stocking has also included a sketch of the history of anthropology from the ancient Greeks to the present. For this collection, Stocking has written prefatory commentaries for each of the essays, as well as two more extended contextualizing pieces. An introductory essay ("Retrospective Prescriptive Reflections") places the volume in autobiographical and historiographical context; the Afterword ("Postscriptive Prospective Reflections") reconsiders major themes of the essays in relation to the recent past and present situation of academic anthropology.

Book Historicizing Canadian Anthropology

Download or read book Historicizing Canadian Anthropology written by Julia Harrison and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historicizing Canadian Anthropology is the first significant examination of the historical development of anthropological study in this country. It addresses key issues in the evolution of the discipline: the shaping influence of Aboriginal-anthropological encounters; the challenge of compiling a history for the Canadian context; and the place of international and institutional relations. The contributors to this collection reflect on the definition and scope of the discipline and explore the degree to which a uniquely Canadian tradition affects anthropological theory, practice, and reflexivity.

  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 410 pages

Download or read book My Old People Say written by Catharine McClellan and published by Hull, Quebec : Canadian Museum of Civilization. This book was released on 2001 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on the rich primary sources of company records and catalogues, existing factory buidlings and equipment, photographs and newspaper accounts, The Alberta Pottery Industry, 1912-1990 tells a fascinating story enriched by the memories of the people who worked in the plants. This study focuses on the economic and social impact of the industry, both locally and natonally. As a study of material history, it examines the outputs of the pottery industry, the plant processes, and the people who made and used those products. This book also traces the factors that affected the emergence, success, tribulations, and demise of pottery in Alberta in the context of the provinceOs economic history. At the same time it portrays the human interest in the pottery story: rivalry and espionage among those who founded the factories, the success and failures of the scientists who struggled to perfect the pottery materials and manufacturing processes, and the daily lives of the workers and entrepreneurs in the pottery industry. For those who know, collect, or use Medalta pottery, this book is a valuable source of information far beyond what has been available to date. It is a fine compliment to museum collections and exhibits and the heritage sites the pottery factories have become. Anne Hayward curated the travelling exhibition Medalta Ware for the Glenbow Museum, Calgary, and developed curatorial and interpretive materials for the Clay Products Interpretive Centre in Medicine Hat.

Book Ethnicity and Culture in Canada

Download or read book Ethnicity and Culture in Canada written by John W. Berry and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ethnicity, write J.W. Berry and J.A. Laponce in their introduction to this volume, is likely to be to the twenty-first century what class was to the twentieth; that is, a major source of tension and political conflict. However, ethnicity is also increasingly likely to be a source of inspiration and diversification within society." "Because of the rapidly developing importance of ethnicity and culture in Canada, the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council and the Ministry of Multiculturalism and Citizenship undertook in 1991 a project to review research on the subject. This volume, in nineteen chapters, is the record of the findings. Papers cover such topics as demography, political philosophy, history, anthropology, sociology, media studies, literature, language learning, education, and ethnic and multicultural attitudes." "Looking back to the Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism, mandated in 1963, the editors point out that the terminology has changed radically, and that the evolution from biculturalism to multiculturalism has clarified not only the political agenda but the research agenda as well. An insistent theme recurs throughout this volume: multiculturalism is taken increasingly as being a characteristic of Canadian society as a whole, rather than a concept focused exclusively on new Canadians." "While the Canadian population has always been ethnically diverse, only recently has the diversity been systematically analysed. Ethnic and multicultural studies are remarkably well developed in Canada, the editors conclude. However, they point out one shortcoming more apparent in some fields than others: we often know quite well how the dominant group views a minority, but we often lack knowledge of the reverse attitudes and opinions. Berry and Laponce recommend that we replace one-way mirrors with windows, preferably open windows."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
