"This must be aimed at scholarly audiences and should arise from long term field work based on the distinctively anthropological method of participant observation."

Picturing Culture: Explorations in Film and Anthropology (Paperback) (ISBN: 9780226730998) Ruby, Jay Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: The University of Chicago Press, United States, 2000. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 2nd. 232 x 144 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Here, Jay Ruby - a founder of visual anthropology - distills his 30-year exploration of the relationship of film and anthropology. Spurred by a conviction that the ideal of an anthropological cinema has not even remotely begun to be realized, Ruby argues that ethnographic filmmakers should generate a set of critical standards analogous to those for written ethnographies. Cinematic artistry and the desire to entertain, he argues, can eclipse the original intention, which is to provide an anthropological representation of the subjects. The book begins with analyses of key filmmakers (Robert Flaherty, Robert Garner and Tim Asch) who have striven to generate profound statements about human behaviour on film. Ruby then discusses the idea of research film, Eric Michaels and indigenous media, the ethics of representation, the nature of ethnography, anthropological knowledge and film, and lays the groundwork for a critical approach to the field that borrows selectively from film, communication, media and cultural studies. Witty and original, yet intensely theoretical, this collection is a major contribution to the field of visual anthropology.
