Introduction. What people without history? : a case for historical anthropology as a narrative-critical science -- Figurations in historical anthropology : two kinds of narrative about the long-duration provenances of the Holocaust -- Culture and power in Eric Wolf's project -- Why not 'Old Marie', or someone very much like her? : a reassessment of the quetion about the Grimms' contributors from a social-historical perspective -- When women held the dragon's tongue -- Peasants against the state in the body of Anna Maria Wagner : an Austrian infanticde in 1832 -- What do the peasants want now? : realists and fundamentalists in Swiss and South German rural politics, 1650-1750 -- Reactionary modernism and the postmodern challenge to narrative ethics.

Sommario/riassunto

"Peasants tell tales," one prominent cultural historian tells us (Robert Darnton). Scholars must then determine and analyze what it is they are saying and whether or not to incorporate such tellings into their histories and ethnographies. Challenging the dominant culturalist



approach associated with Clifford Geertz and Marshall Sahlins among others, this book presents a critical rethinking of the philosophical anthropologies found in specific histories and ethnographies and thereby bridges the current gap between approaches to studies of peasant society and popular culture. In challenging t

Sommario/riassunto

This volume contains a selection of contributions from the "First International Conference in Network Analysis," held at the University of Florida, Gainesville, on December 14-16, 2011. The remarkable diversity of fields that take advantage of Network Analysis makes the endeavor of gathering up-to-date material in a single compilation a useful, yet very difficult, task. The purpose of this volume is to overcome this difficulty by collecting the major results found by the participants and combining them in one easily accessible compilation. Network analysis has become a major research topic over the last several years. The broad range of applications that can be described and analyzed by means of a network is bringing together researchers, practitioners and other scientific communities from numerous fields such as Operations Research, Computer Science, Transportation, Energy, Social Sciences, and more. The contributions not only come from different fields, but also cover a broad range of topics relevant to the theory and practice of network analysis, including the reliability of complex networks, software, theory, methodology, and applications.
