Writing in a deeply personal style and using material from his fieldwork in three dramatically different locales -- Indonesia, West Africa, and Monticello, the historic home of Thomas Jefferson -- Eric Gable shows why the ethnographic encounter is the core of the discipline's method and the basis of its unique contribution to understanding the human condition. Gable weaves together vignettes from the field and discussion of major works as he explores the development of the idea of culture through the experience of cultural contrast, anthropology's fraught relationship to racism and colonialism, and other enduring themes. 606 $aEquality$xPhilosophy 606 $aEthnology$xFieldwork 606 $aEthnology$xPhilosophy 615 0$aEquality$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aEthnology$xFieldwork. 615 0$aEthnology$xPhilosophy. 676 $a305.8001 700 $aGable$b Eric$01152550 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821863503321 996 $aAnthropology & egalitarianism$94094966 997 $aUNINA
