Description

Feminist Anthropology surveys the history of feminist anthropology and offers students and scholars a fascinating collection of both classic and contemporary articles, grouped to highlight key themes from the past and present. * Offers vibrant examples of feminist ethnographic work rather than synthetic overviews of the field. * Each section is framed by a theoretical and bibliographic essay. * Includes a thoughtful introduction to the volume that provides context and discusses the show more intellectual "foremothers" of the field, including Margaret Mead, Ruth Landes, Phyllis Kaberry, and Zora Neale Hurston. show less
