This paper argues for conscious descriptions of the processes of socialisation that ethnographers undergo within their host communities. It also explores the roles of identity and self in the ethnographic process as applied to the other and to the researcher. As understandings are arrived at through a process of engagements and through relationships the key quantities in these exchanges deserve a closer consideration than they have traditionally received in ethnographic texts. Using examples from fieldwork in Southern New Ireland, this paper examines the ways in which understandings about the culture and society arise through an embodied and reflexive engagement with concepts of ‘self’ and the ‘other’
