Franz Baermann Steiner (1909-52) provided the vital link between
the intellectual culture of central Europe and the Oxford Institute
of Anthropology in its post-Second World War years. This book
demonstrates his quiet influence within anthropology, which has
extended from Mary Douglas to David Graeber, and how his remarkable
poetry reflected profoundly on the slavery and murder of the Shoah,
an event which he escaped from. Steiner's concerns including
inter-disciplinarity, genre, refugees and exile, colonialism and
violence, and the sources of European anthropology speak to
contemporary concerns more directly now than at any time since his
early death.
