Paper 1

When preparing for paper 1, teachers should consider the perspective of the anthropologist in the set passage.

How does the anthropologist’s perspective shape the way in which the ethnographic material is presented?

Are alternative interpretations of the ethnographic material possible?

If the methods of the anthropologist are evident in the passage, can these be linked to the explanations or conclusions the anthropologist presents?

Does the anthropologist foreground the voices of the research participants? And to what end?

These are some of the questions teachers can ask in preparation for the paper 1 assessment. Discussion of these issues will encourage students to read ethnography critically, both for what it says and how it is saying it.

Consuming Grief: Chapter 5 – Explanations of Eatings

Due: 2/25/19 – non-negotiable

Directions: Text evidence and analysis should be thoroughly applied throughout response. Students should link key concepts, areas of inquiry, and inquiry specific concepts to response.

Part 1:

As you read chapter 5, there is a lot of discussion and analysis of ‘The Body’, ‘The Self’, and ‘The Other’. Through your own analysis, apply these inquiry specific concepts to each of the sub-sections throughout the chapter.

1. The Dietary Question

2. Wari’ Views of the Gastronomic Qualities of Human Flesh

3. The Nutritional Value of Human Corpses

4. Psychoanalytic Perspectives

5. Eating as an Act of Aggression

6. Eating as an Act of Respect

7. Affines and Aggression

8. Consanguines and Ambivalence

9. Desires to Hold on to the Dead

10. Disassemblage and Regeneration

The responses per sub-section should be formatted as followed: (example)

The Dietary Question:

The Body -
The Self -
The Other –

There is an excessive amount of details in each of the sub-sections about the body (type of body -animal, human, enemy; the role each body plays; the role the outsiders believe the body portrays), the self (Wari’s culture), the other (perceived understanding of outsiders about the Wari’s culture).

Again -text evidence must support each response. This is not a summary of the sub-sections of the chapter. This is an analysis of culture and cultural views.

Part 2:

After completing part 1, answer the following question and apply information from chapters 1-5.

1. Why does anthropology matter?

social identity. (you may want to add to this answer as you continue reading the article
as there are references throughout)

8. What are the limitations of this approach?
9. How do Melanesian and Amazonian approaches to cannibalism differ? (social
organization and symbolism)

Cannibal Feast in South America. By Theodor De Bry

Guest essay by Eric Worrall
I guess we now know what greens really mean when they demand less food waste.

Swedish Scientist Proposes Cannibalism to Fight Climate Change
CHRIS TOMLINSON
6 Sep 2019

Swedish behavioural scientist Magnus Söderlund has suggested that eating other people after they die could be a means of combatting climate change.

The scientist mentioned the possibility of cannibalism during a broadcast on Swedish television channel TV4 this week about a fair in Stockholm regarding "food of the future".

Söderlund is set to hold seminars at the event, entitled "Gastro Summit - about the future of food" where he intends to discuss the possibility of eating people in the name of cutting down greenhouse emissions.
According to his research, the main problem with the idea is the widespread taboo of eating human flesh and said that conservative attitudes could make it hard to convince Swedes at large to take up the practice of cannibalism.

Tissue culture "clean meat" already in 2018? I've long been looking forward to this. https://t.co/p41NR3NEZn
What if human meat is grown? Could we overcome our taboo against cannibalism? An interesting test case for consequentialist morality versus "yuck reaction" absolutism.

I think on some level we all suspected it was only a matter of time before a climate fanatic seriously suggested such perversion.

I can understand someone in extreme circumstances making an impossible choice, like the survivors of Flight 571 which crashed on an ice field in the Andes. But to suggest that cannibalism is something the world should seriously consider, as just another conservation measure; how has the world come to this?

in Climate ugliness.
