Description: Anthropology With an Attitude : Critical Essays, Paperback by Fabian, Johannes, ISBN 0804741433, ISBN-13 9780804741439, Like New Used, Free P&P in the UK A collection of 11 published and unpublished essays by Fabian (cultural anthropology, U. of Amsterdam) in which he demonstrates the practice of what he calls an "attitude of critical intent" that he believes should run through all anthropology, rather than being relegated to a subdiscipline. He applies his critical attitude to a number of theoretical issues, including the role of misunderstandings in ethnographies, the subject of reading as a mode of ethnography, the role of collecting in the emergence of professional ethnography, and the interactions between memory and alterity (otherness).
