ANTH 213 - Fiction and Anthropology


In this course we will explore different forms of fiction (primarily literature and film) produced by anthropologists, at times comparing these works to more “traditional” ethnographic and theoretical works.  In these comparisons, we will ask what is being expressed in fiction that might not be expressed in other works.  Why do anthropologists employ these other forms of writing and recounting?
