However, denying emotion altogether doesn't necessarily lead to better research. Methods cannot function independently from the personalities wielding them, and it's time we questioned the tendency to underplay the scientific, personal, and political consequences of the emotional dimensions of fieldwork. This book explores the idea that emotion is not antithetical to thought or reason, but is instead an untapped source of insight that can complement more traditional methods of anthropological research. With a new, re-humanized methodological framework, this book shows how certain reactions and experiences consistently evoked in fieldwork, when treated with the intellectual rigor empirical work demands, can be translated into meaningful data. Emotions in the Field brings to mainstream anthropological awareness not only the viability and necessity of this neglected realm of research, but also its fresh and thoughtful guiding principles. 606 $aEthnology$xFieldwork$xPsychological aspects 606 $aEmotions$xAnthropological aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEthnology$xFieldwork$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aEmotions$xAnthropological aspects. 676 $a305.8/00723 701 $aDavies$b James$g(James Peter)$0934233 701 $aSpencer$b Dimitrina$01026606 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459161603321 996 $aEmotions in the field$92441596 997 $aUNINA
