A Thrice-Told Tale is one ethnographer's imaginative and powerful response to the methodological issues raised by feminist and postmodernist critics of traditional ethnography. The author, a feminist anthropologist, uses three texts developed out of her research in Taiwan—a piece of fiction, anthropological fieldnotes, and a social science article—to explore some of these criticisms.
Each text takes a different perspective, is written in a different style, and has different "outcomes," yet all three involve the same fascinating set of events. A young mother began to behave in a decidedly abherrant, perhaps suicidal manner, and opinion in her village was sharply divided over the reason. Was she becoming a shaman, posessed by a god? Was she deranged, in need of physical restraint, drugs, and hospitalization? Or was she being cynically manipulated by her ne'er-do-well husband to elicit sympathy and money from her neighbors? In the end, the woman was taken away from the area to her mother's house. For some villagers, this settled the matter; for others the debate over her behavior was probably never truly resolved.
The first text is a short story written shortly after the incident, which occurred almost thrity years ago; the second text is a copy of the fieldnotes collected about the events covered in the short story; the third text is an article published in 1990 in American Ethnologist
that analyzes the incident from the author's current perspective. Following each text is a Commentary in which the author discusses such topics as experimental ethnography, polyvocality, authorial presence and control, reflexivity, and some of the differences between fiction and ethnography.
The three texts are framed by two chapters in which the author discusses the genereal problems posed by feminist and postmodernist critics of ethnography and presents her personal exploration of these issues in an argument that is strongly self-reflexive and theoretically rigorous. She considers some feminist concerns over colonial research methods and takes issues with the insistence of some feminists tha the topics of ethnographic research be set by those who are studied. The book concludes with a plea for ethnographic responsibility based on a less academic and more practical perspective.
Wolf反對後現代、後殖民對於文本的過度強調,認為民族誌危機的齣路在於更實際的去履行對受眾和信息源的責任。可是她又用三種不同文本書寫同一事件,以此實踐同時反思人類學的後現代性。但用gender theory分析Shamanism那一部分我覺得有點弱。
評分對後現代“實驗民族誌”重形式,輕分析,重寫作,輕田野的一次集中迴應,以小說、田野筆記、民族誌三種方式敘述同一個故事,指齣瞭實驗民族誌背後的缺陷以及reflexivity的正確方式。作者文筆不錯,小說部分的場景描寫真心贊。
評分Mrs.Tan 一個發瘋的女人。可惜的是,她那個與鬼神對話的自我,不能創造一個足以在被陌生人建構的社會世界中活下去的自我。小說部分我隻讀瞭一頁多,筆記和民族誌於我而言更實用,更樂意讀一些。第五章和每章的評述節都很值得讀。“在我看來,如果真的存在民族誌的危機,它在於我們對受眾和受訪人的雙重責任越來越不確定瞭。一旦發生衝突,應先照顧哪個呢?”作者似乎想用女性主義民族誌書寫來批判《寫文化》的後現代論調。彆扯什麼自反性,女性主義者天生帶著自反意識。
