In the first coprehensive introduction to the nature and
development of ethnographic film, Peter Loizos reviews fifty of the
most important films made between 1955 and 1985. Going beyond
programmatic statements, he analyzes the films themselves,
identifying and discussing their contributions to ethnographic
documentation.
Loizos begins by reviewing works of John Marshall and Timothy Asch
in the 1950s and moves through those of Jean Rouch, Robert Gardner,
and many more recent filmmakers. He reveals a steady course of
innovations along four dimensions: production technology, subject
matter, strategies of argument, and ethnographic authentication.
His analyses of individual films address questions of realism,
authenticity, genre, authorial and subjective voice, and
representation of the films' creators as well as their subjects.
"Innovation in Ethnographic Film," as a systematic and iluminating
review of developments in ethnographic film, will be an important
resource for the growing number of anthropologists and other
scholars who use such films as tools for research and teaching.
