Revealing some pioneering articles in social anthropology written over a period of twenty years, Judith Okely discusses selected themes which include:* questions of reflexivity and autobiography* anthropology in Europe* the cultural location of the anthropologist* feminism in anthropology. Illustrated with photographs, Own or Other Culture covers subjects ranging from the author's own boarding school revealing a British exotica and colonial comparisons, to how Gypsies, who treat non-Gypsies as the 'other', act to create or manipulate cultural difference.Feminist anthropology is developed in a reassessment of de Beauvoir and Kaberry while gender and bodily experience is explored in the face of popular demands by women readers for cross-cultural examples.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51859669745952,"sku":"NEW0415115124","price":268.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71uleUdVnZL.jpg?v=1781591956","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/own-or-other-culture-0415115124","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
