Debating Authenticity

Concepts of Modernity in Anthropological Perspective

Herausgeber: Fillitz, Thomas; Saris, A. Jamie

Beschreibung

This collection interrogates the notion of authenticity from an anthropological point of view and considers authenticity in terms of how meaning is produced in and through discourses about authenticity. Incorporating case studies from four continents, the topics reach from art and colonialism to exoticism-primitivism, film, ritual, and wilderness.
