Description
Anthropological theory has shaped Western thought and politics with deep-rooted images and convictions. Johannes Fabian examines how these ideas have evolved over time, revealing a complex relationship between anthropologists and the cultures they study.
The notion of 'here' and 'now' versus 'there' and 'then' is central to this analysis, highlighting the ways in which Western societies perceive and represent non-Western cultures. Fabian's work has implications for fields beyond anthropology, including literary criticism, philosophy, and history.
