- Additional information
- A portion of the 2013 article “Knowing Primitives, Witches, and the Spirits: Anthropology and the Mastery of Nonsense” in Republic of Letters appears in Realizing the Witch. The article describes a moment of alterity in Baxstrom’s ethnographic practice. In the book, elements of this narrative reappear in a section on the precarity of ethnographic knowledge. The chapter in Realizing the Witch (pp. 17-31) is not, however, a reproduction of the article – the overlap is a few thousand words within longer, separate pieces that are the driver behind the overall argument of the book. Baxstrom 2013 was submitted to REF2014.
