Produktbeschreibung
In "On Limitations to the Use of Some Anthropologic Data," John Wesley Powell presents a meticulous examination of the epistemological and methodological constraints inherent in the application of anthropological data. Through a pioneering blend of empirical research and critical theorization, Powell critiques the prevailing assumptions of his era, challenging scholars to confront the limitations of their data interpretations. His prose is marked by clarity and precision, echoing the scientific rigor of late 19th-century American naturalism while simultaneously engaging with the romantic ideal of the noble savage, thus situating his work within a broader literary context that grapples with American identity and the complexities of cultural representation. John Wesley Powell, a renowned geologist and ethnographer, was profoundly influenced by his explorations of the American West. His tenure as the second director of the U.S. Geological Survey and his advocacy for scientific education profoundly shaped his views on anthropology. Powell's commitment to empirical inquiry was rooted in his personal experiences with indigenous cultures, which informed his nuanced understanding of the limitations surrounding anthropological data collection. This essential text is a crucial read for anthropologists, historians, and scholars interested in the intricacies of scientific methodology. By dissecting the pitfalls of data reliance, Powell encourages readers to approach anthropological studies with a critical lens, making this book an invaluable addition to any academic library and an enlightening companion for those seeking to understand the dynamic interplay of culture, data, and interpretation.
