"Life Beside Itself is a profound reflection on the psychic life of biopolitics and how the biopolitical state, committed to enhancing the life of the population, renders lifeless a people’s particular form of life. Lisa Stevenson writes with attentiveness to the care that binds the living and the dead in Inuit communities. That is itself a form of ethical living. Her writing is surely touched by grace. Her book illuminates the problem of suicide as the light of the moon illuminates a darkened sky. She helps us not to turn away from this suffering but to hold it. This book is truly a treasure."—Veena Das, author of Affliction: Health, Disease, Poverty
Lisa Stevenson is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at McGill University and the editor of Critical Inuit Studies: An Anthology of Contemporary Arctic Ethnography (2006).
真的很会写,分析能力也很惊人,但是又给人感觉很虚,毕竟材料少。这样的care是care吗,还是governmentality,全程没提阿甘本的bare life,有些好奇为啥。
评分挺颠覆我一个门外汉对人类学的印象。虽然开始会觉得关于意象、感官的东西过于模糊感性,但通读下来发现她的论述还是挺坚实有力的。没有事实和数字做重要支撑,却借鉴心理学、哲学、文学、神学等多学科论述,思路开阔,论点依然鲜明有说服力。书里对care的阐释可以从官僚与人民的关系延伸到日常生活中人与人的沟通,一种强势与弱势的平衡,很多启发。她强调意象、形式作为事实、信息的重要补充,感觉也是这几年艺术学术领域一个走势。还记得之前某作家关于文学真实性的文章,似有相通之处。
评分这学期最喜欢的一本书 也很好读 有一种优美感
评分读notes很重要。。
评分民族志部分不够thick 有用其他材料(fiction 节选)弥补之嫌 语言很美 足够故弄玄虚 argument一般般 通过先后两部分各三章讲述加拿大的因纽特community的life and death。第一部分讲canadian government提供的作为biopower形式的anonymous care,第二部分讲biopower之外的alternative。全书强调uncertainty 强调image over fact,虽然概念界定不是特别清晰
