Major figures in contemporary anthropology present a dialogic critiqueof ethnography. Moving beyond sociolinguistics and performance theory,and inspired by Bakhtin and by their own field experiences, the contributorsrevise notions of where culture actually resides. This pioneering effortintegrates a concern for linguistic processes with interpretive approachesto culture.Culture and ethnography are located in social interaction. The collectioncontains dialogues that trace the entire course of ethnographic interpretation,from field research to publication. The authors explore an anthropologythat actively acknowledges the dialogical nature of its own production.Chapters strike a balance between theory and practice and will also beof interest in cultural studies, literary criticism, linguistics, andphilosophy.CONTRIBUTORS: Deborah Tannen, John Attinasi, Paul Friedrich, BillieJean Isbell, Allan F.
