The Anthropology of Performance

Synopsis: Turner is all over the globe as he addresses issues of cultural performance , carnival, film, theatre, and "performing ethnography" to break new ground in anthropological thinking about event, spectacle, and audience. One of h is last writings, "Body, Brain, and Culture" links cerebral neurology and a nthropology studies in a fascinating interface. Review: "In this posthumous collection, Turner continues his quest for 'a liberated anthropology,' a cause helped in part by the recent postmodern consciousness." -- American Theatre.
