| Inhalt | This course is designed as a practical companion to the lecture "What is Anthropology?" (69461). The lecture offers students a foundation in the key terms and debates of contemporary anthropology, while this course is designed to help think anthropologically by engaging deeply with ethnographic materials and group activities. Students will look at how anthropologists come to know what they know, and the many ways that knowledge is produced. Particular attention will be paid to the ethical and political dilemmas that emerge when representing other ways of life. Readings will include classic and contemporary ethnographic texts that illuminate how anthropologists deal with categories such as kinship, materiality, visual representation, power, intimacy, and others. The course centers on ethnography as on a way of understanding others and ourselves. Students will be encouraged to think critically about how anthropological perspectives can help us make sense of a world shaped by complexity. |
