The Power of Example is an interdisciplinary examination of the integral role that examples and exemplification play in anthropological theory and practice. * Explores the evocative and persuasive power, both positive and negative, of exemplary examples in social life * Includes contributions from established and up-and-coming anthropologists, as well as leading scholars of religious and cultural studies * Features an international array of case studies on exemplification from Left radical activists in Denmark to scientific metrological practice in Brazil
From evoking explicit imagery to drawing cross-cultural parallels, examples and exemplification play an integral role in anthropological theory and practice. The Power of Example is a curated collection of essays that both explore the evocative and persuasive power of 'exemplary examples' in social life, and analyze exemplification's role in anthropology. The specific case studies included illustrate the pervasive influence of exemplification across global cultures, from Christian typology to Palestinian womanhood. With contributions from established and up-and-coming anthropologists, as well as leading scholars of religious and cultural studies, the collection offers a balanced and original approach to understanding how and why examples are so powerful.
Ambitiously tackling one of the most pivotal components of anthropological inquiry, The Power of Example encourages students and scholars alike to take a closer look at examples and their influence.„Über diesen Titel“ kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.
