Despite having emerged in the heyday of a dominant Europe, of which
Ancient Greece is the hallowed spiritual and intellectual ancestor,
anthropology has paradoxically shown relatively little interest in
contemporary Greek culture. In this innovative and ambitious book,
Michael Herzfeld moves Greek Ethnography from the margins to the
centre of anthropological theory, revealing the theoretical
insights that can be gained by so doing. He shows that the ideology
that originally led to the creation of anthropology also played a
large part in the growth of the modern Greek nation-state, and that
Greek ethnography can therefore serve as a mirror for an
ethnography of anthropology itself. He further demonstrates the
role that scholarly fields, including anthropology, have played in
the construction of contemporary Greek culture and Greek identity.
