Editorial Reviews
Review
"Grimshaw then moves into three detailed studies of postwar ethnographic filmmakers...all three studies are detailed and perceptive, making this ambitious book invaluable to those who teach these films." International Journal of African Historical Studies
Product Description
Grimshaw sets a new agenda for visual anthropology, attempting to transcend the old division between image and text-based ethnography. She argues for the use of vision as a critical tool with which anthropologists can address issues of knowledge and technique. The first part of the book critically examines anthropology's history, focusing on the work of key individuals--Rivers, Malinowski and Radcliffe-Brown--in the context of early modern art and cinema. In the book's second part, Grimshaw considers the anthropological films of Jean Rouch, David and Judith MacDougall and Melissa Llewelyn-Davies.
