Transcendent Individual argues for a reappraisal of the place of
the individual in anthropolgical theory and ethnographic writing. A
wealth of voices illustrate and inform the text, showing ways in
which individuals creatively 'write', narrate and animate cultural
and social life. This is an anthropology imbued with a liberal
morality which is willing to make value judgements over and against
culture in favour of individuality.
Rapport draws widely on ethnographic and theoretic materials
bringing into the debate a range of voices, among them Nietzsche,
Wilde, George Steiner, Richard Rorty, John Berger and Anthony
Cohen. In doing so he approaches individuality in terms of a range
of issues: biological integrity, consciousness, agency, democracy,
discourse, globalism, knowledge and play.
