This rich ethnography explores beliefs and practices surrounding aging in a rural Bengali village. Sarah Lamb focuses on how villagers' visions of aging are tied to the making and unmaking of gendered selves and social relations over a lifetime. Lamb uses a focus on age as a means not only to open up new ways of thinking about South Asian social life, but also to contribute to contemporary theories of gender, the body, and culture, which have been hampered, the book argues, by a static focus on youth. Lamb's own experiences in the village are an integral part of her book and ably convey the cultural particularities of rural Bengali life and Bengali notions of modernity. In exploring ideals of family life and the intricate interrelationships between and within generations, she enables us to understand how people in the village construct, and deconstruct, their lives.At the same time, her study extends beyond India to contemporary attitudes about aging in the United States. This accessible and engaging book is about deeply human issues and will appeal not only to specialists in South Asian culture, but to anyone interested in families, aging, gender, religion, and the body.
Great ethnography." Maya (love) creates problems whenever there will be separations or conflicting attachments. It's a very bad thing."
評分Great ethnography." Maya (love) creates problems whenever there will be separations or conflicting attachments. It's a very bad thing."
評分很傳統的人類學視角,是個好作者,為數不多做anthro and aging的人類學傢。同時參見其在Generations and Globalization中一文。本書是其早期作品,作為一本關於身體和性彆的民族誌,可能因為齣版年代的原因,沒有引用巴特勒,偏嚮於描述作為文化構建産物的身體和性彆,視gender為文化産物,sex為自然屬性,比較二分。
