History of Anthropology is a new series of annual volumes, each of
which will treat an important theme in the history of
anthropological inquiry. For this initial volume, the editors have
chosen to focus on the modern cultural anthropology: intensive
fieldwork by "participant observation." "Observers Observed"
includes essays by a distinguished group of historians and
anthropologists covering major episodes in the history of
ethnographic fieldwork in the American, British, and French
traditions since 1880. As the first work to investigate the
development of modern fieldwork in a serious historical way, this
collection will be of great interest and value to anthropologist,
historians of science and the social sciences, and the general
readers interested in the way in which modern anthropologists have
perceived and described the cultures of "others." Included in this
volume are the contributions of Homer G. Barnett, University of
Oregon; James Clifford, University of California, Santa Cruz;
Douglas Cole, Simon Frazer University; Richard Handler, Lake Forest
College; Curtis Hinsley, Colgate University; Joan Larcom, Mount
Holyoke College; Paul Rabinow, University of California, Berkeley;
and the editor.
