Italian version ISBN: 978-88-6081-689-4

In 1986 George E. Marcus and James Clifford published Writing Culture, a text that would become a landmark in contemporary anthropology. Twenty-five years later, nine scholars reflect on how the perspectives opened up by its publication have determined the anthropological practice of recent decades providing inspiration for new ideas in the fields of ethnography, cultural anthropology, design and art criticism. The collection of essays begins with a contribution from Massimo Canevacci reflecting on the unexplored potentialities of digital, connective, hybrid media for ethnographic research and writing, and concludes with a conversation between George E. Marcus and Tarek Elhaik, envisioning an anthropology capable of approaching contemporary art and performance. The other eight essays freely move along the boundaries between political anthropology, philosophy of science, phenomenological ethics and anthropology of design, attempting to cross new ethnographic territories and unexplored paths.
