Between Anthropology and Literature

Produktbeschreibung

Most importantly, the essays conclude that the origins, sources and intersections of the two disciplines are constantly revised, reconceived, or replaced, breaching boundaries that lead not to chaos but rather to creativity and new possibilities of understanding and explicating texts, both literary and anthropological. The authors of this volume all address the ways in which the language of social science fuses with that of the literary imagination and contributes to the ongoing debate on the merits of interdisciplinarity. The essays fit excellently with the current interest in cultural studies and challenge students, both undergraduate and graduate, to see texts not as isolated artefacts, but as parts of a larger global and cultural matrix.
