Mead's Other Manus: Phenomenology of the Encounter
No Customer Reviews
Romanucci-Ross has taken a different approach in this timely and important book: she has written self-consciously about her fieldwork with Margaret Mead and Ted Schwartz on Manus as it developed from 1963-67. . . . Romanucci-Ross has written about the encounter that all ethnography must negotiate in principle on its uneven routes through experiences with Others to ethnological analysis and perhaps on to the dusty immortality of print. This is in that sense a book about fieldwork on Manus but with the happy aspect of encapsulating 'the many in the one.' For that reason alone it ought to be read carefully (and critically) by everyone who aspires to enter and report on the cross-cultural world. American Anthropologist
