Recenzii

 “What can be said about the ethnographic concern with 'Romantic sensibility' that counterpoints anthropology’s more dominant image of itself as a scientific discourse? .  .  .  The editor of this fascinating collection notes that responding to this challenge is a more timely enterprise than might at first appear. In his long, concluding essay on the dualism of the anthropological tradition, Stocking [explores] ethnographic sensibility in three studies of the 1920s that later became the focus of famous controversies: Ruth Benedict on Pueblo culture; Robert Redfield on Tepoztlan; and Margaret Mead on Samoa. Romantic Motives maintains the high scholarly standards of this series."—Choice
