Annotations: Goodall_”The New Ethnography”

  • The construction of of a personal voice
  • Writing as a method of qualitative inquiry
  • Writing about culture
  • “This book is about writing to ‘Getting it down,’ to really get it down’
  • Detailed, objective observation and detached, dispassionate analysis
  • What counts as the truth depends on where you are standing when you observe or participate in it, what you believe about it in the first place, and what you want to do with it
  • What is intimacy in the study of a culture?
