investigative snooping turn up anything that is actually

challenge words, prompt questions and a range of follow-up

Putting the anthropological imagination under the spotlight, this
book represents the experience of three generations of researchers,
each of whom have long collaborated with the same Indigenous
community over the course of their careers. In the context of a
remote Indigenous Australian community in northern Australia, these
researchers-anthropologists, an archeologist, a literary scholar,
and an artist-encounter reflexivity and ethnographic practice
through deeply personal and professionally revealing accounts of
anthropological consciousness, relational encounters, and knowledge
sharing. In six discrete chapters, the authors reveal the
complexities that run through these relationships, considering how
any one of us builds knowledge, shares knowledge, how we encounter
different and new knowledge, and how well we are positioned to
understand the lived experiences of others, whilst making ourselves
fully available to personal change. At its core, this anthology is
a meditation on learning and friendship across cultures.
