Litteraturseminar (Sosant 4400)
B?kene/monografiene er ? f? kj?pt p? amazon.com og AbeBooks.com. Akademika har ogs? noen eksemplarer. I tillegg skal de fleste b?ker/monografier kunne l?nes p? biblioteket.
Instituttet bestiller kompendiet f?r semesterstart, til et forventet antall studenter. Viser det seg at vi har bestilt for f? kompendier, kan vi bestille flere. En slik re-bestilling m? gj?res tidlig i semesteret. Merknad: Tekstene i kompendiet m? klareres f?r kopiering, en prosess som tar tid. Av den grunn er det dessverre ikke mulig ? re-bestille kompendiet n?rt opp til eksamen.

About this course
This course will address recent discussions on the construction of authenticity, the relation between between ‘original’ and ‘copy’, and more generally, of how ‘cultures’ are generated (Kapferer & Hobart), and change. We will explore these issues in relation to art (Marcus & Myers, Schneider) and material culture (Knappett, Henare et al.). In particular, we will focus on theoretical models of appropriation (Schneider), creativity (Hallam & Ingold), agency in relation to artefacts, or ‘things’ (Gell, Henare et al., Knappett). Much of this research has focused on visual and performing arts (Schneider’s study of artists in Argentina), and material culture more generally, but insights from this discussion can also be applied to any kind of social and cultural authenticity construction (identity). In addition, for anthropologists doing research in this area poses the epistemological challenge of how to represent their sensorially rich findings, as forms of embodied knowledge and visual practice beyond traditional forms of writing (Gunn, Schneider & Wright).
We will have lectures, discussions based on readings, and student presentations. Students are advised to read the indicated literature before each session.
