Publisher Description
Yvonne Daniel. 2005. Dancing Wisdom, Embodied Knowledge in Haitian Vodou, Cuban Yoruba, and Bahian Candombe. Urbana: University of Illinois Press. 324 pp. ISBN: 0-252-07207-3. Whether or not she would describe Dancing Wisdom as such, Yvonne Daniel has written a near perfect example of "experimental ethnography," of which such experimentation is outlined and analyzed in the now somewhat classic work Anthropology as Cultural Critique (Marcus and Fischer 1986). While some anthropologists and other social scientists will claim, and some of my students will hope, that the experimental moment in anthropology is now over, gratefully Yvonne Daniel seems to have resisted the trend if Dancing Wisdom is to be taken as evidence for my claim.
