Eye, Mind and Word in Anthropology

Paul Stoller, Eye, Mind and Word in Anthropology.?How do we represent the in anthropological discourse? In this paper it is argued that the tacit assumptions of the anthropological episteme embodied in the conventions of ethnographic realism determine what is, from what is not, anthropologically appropriate. These tacit assumptions are represented not only in what we see and think, but also in what we say and write. Given the epistemological foundation of our discipline, anthropologists tend to discuss the bizarre over a drink, at lunch or at dinner rather than in the more for mal context of published prose. Considering the epistemological dilemma precipitated by extraordinary events during the author's fieldwork among the Songhay of the Republic of Niger, it is suggested that anthropologists need to expand the parameters of discourse such that expressions of the nuances of human being become as acceptable as formal propositions which attempt to explicate human behavior
