How are ethnographic knowledge and anthropological theory created
out of field experiences? Working in the Field explores emplacement
and experience-centered narratives as the modes in working in
places brings anthropology to life. Stewart and Strathern show how
first impressions of an area carry depths of meanings which can
gradually be unpacked in later analysis and how the fieldworker's
memories may become blended with those of the people studied as a
result of long-term engagement with them. Spanning Papua New
Guinea, Taiwan, and Scotland, and Ireland, Stewart and Strathern
show how fieldwork in apparently different areas can lead to
unexpected comparisons and discoveries of similarities in human
cross-cultural patterns of behavior.
