Synopsis

1969: Loren McIntyre makes contact with the elusive Mayoruna 'cat people' of the Amazon's Javari Valley. He follows them - into the wild depths of the rainforest. When he realises he is lost, it is already too late.

Stranded and helpless, McIntyre must adjust to an alien way of life. Gradually, he finds his perception of the world beginning to change, and a strange relationship starts to develop with the Mayoruna chief - is McIntyre really able to communicate with the headman in a way that goes beyond words, beyond language?

Petru Popescu's gripping account of McIntyre's adventures with the Mayoruna tribe, and his quest to find the source of the Amazon, is reissued here to coincide with Complicite's acclaimed new stage production, The Encounter, inspired by McIntyre's incredible story.

Pushkin Press are reissuing The Encounter: Amazon Beaming, with a new foreword by Simon McBurney and cover designed by David Pearson, to accompany McBurney's and Complicite's dazzling, highly acclaimed stage production inspired by the book.

About the Author

Born in Bucharest in 1944, Petru Popescu was Communist Romania's most provocative young novelist, before he was forced to defect and start writing in English. His Romanian novels Captured and Burial of the Vine are classics of the resistance against totalitarian art.

Moving to the United States, he wrote movies including The Last Wave and Death of an Angel, before returning full time to fiction. The Encounter: Amazon Beaming, Almost Adam, The Return, and The Oasis made him known worldwide. In The Encounter, the theme of exploring and winning one s freedom within oneself makes an unforgettable character from the discoverer of the Amazon s source, Loren McIntyre. Undoubtedly, freedom is Popescu's signature motif. Popescu is married to screenplay writer Iris Friedman, and they live in Los Angeles.

"...my encounters have forced me to seriously question a social science literature that is, for the most part, seemingly incapable of hearing the cries emanating from the soul of this nation. The same tools that symbolize hope in the hands of the surgeon symbolize necrophilia in the hands of the coroner. Have we become academic coroners? Have the tools of theory, method, instruction and social responsibility become so rusted that they can only be used for autopsies? Does our research in any way reflect the experiences, viewpoints, and needs of the residents of these dying communities?... On the other hand, is the patient really dead? What role are scholars playing in this social triage?"

Quantum ethnography: anthropology in the post-Einsteinian era | Semantic Scholar

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
The present paper proposes that quantum theory provides a source of models and metaphors that can serve as a more neutral and productive foundation for discussing the difficulties of accurate ethnographic representation than those provided by either the postmodernists or the political-economists. A wave-function model of ethnographic representation is more holistic, and therefore more realistic than the models proposed by either postmodernism or political-economy. Understanding social relations as a wave function demands that the ethnographic representation of those social relations include both the material actualities that shape those relations, and the cultural and symbolic ways that people interpret their present condition and how they idealize future social possibilities. In the aftermath of the paradigm crisis of the 1960’s, much contemporary anthropological debate has focused on the best model and metaphor for the construction and production of the ethnographic text. Robert Ulin states that in this debate, there are “two principal competitors: one informed by the meta-narrative of political-economy and its emphasis on the self-formation of the human species through systems of social labor and the other informed by the postmodernist emphasis on discourse and the representation of the ‘other’ through the writing of ethnography” (Ulin 1991:63). The disagreement between the political economists and the postmodernists focuses on, but is not limited to, the debated over the most representative and accurate models and metaphors for reflexive ethnography. Stemming from the theories of interpretive anthropology, postmodernists such as Marcus, Fisher and Clifford argue for a textual metaphor based on literary criticism that recognizes the ethnographer as author of a cultural reality and which calls for the inclusion of a “plurality of voices” (Ulin 1991:70) within the ethnographic text. Political economists see the postmodern textural metaphor as one that is blind to the wider historical political economic context in which the ethnography is produced. Instead, they call for the use of ‘commodity’ as the best reflexive, ethnographic metaphor. “Political-economists have come to recognize the commodity form as not only a model for exploitive social relations in capitalist society but also as a model of hegemonic cultural production and reproduction” (Ulin 1991:76). According to the postmodernists Marcus and Fisher, interpretive anthropology is “the explicit discourse on the doing and writing of ethnography itself” (Marcus and Fisher 1986:16). Clifford Geertz, the most dominant figure within interpretive theory, might not fully agree with this definition or with the direction taken by the postmodernists in regard to the ethnographic text. However, Geertz did focus much of his attention on the construction of the ethnographic text. Ethnography, Geertz argues, is what anthropologists do, and writing ethnography is constructing “thick description” (1973:6). Geertz depended largely on the theories and methods of literary criticism both in his critique of ethnographic writing and in his views of culture and anthropological work. The anthropologist, according to Geertz, is not a scientist, but a cultural interpreter, who interprets culture as one would a text (Marcus and Fisher 1986:26). In Geertz’s view, it is not only the anthropologist who interprets; the anthropologists construct their

"We must leave aside the instruments – of instrumentalisation – the ‘tools of our trade’, and lean into the possibility of encounter that this opens up. Like the case of national geographic photographer Loren McIntyre’s encounter with the Mayoruna headsman Barnicle (as documented in Petu Popescu’s Amazon Beaming, 1999 and Complicité’s The Encounter, 2016), where it is only once McIntyre has lost his camera, his agenda, that the men can have a true encounter, one subject collapsing into the other, each recognising the deep humanity of the other, collapsing in time and space into the Pachamama, “some of us are friends”.

2024, Working Papers in Urban Language & Literacies

This paper sets out to interrogate the notion of "criticality" that inhabits Critical Sociolinguistics. Starting from two dispositions: being "crítico" (a critic) and being a "criticón" (a criticiser) that emerged whilst working as an English language teacher educator, I use ethnographic and genealogical methods, as well as riff and imagination, to explore the competing conceptualisations and histories of criticality that underpin each of these positions. By "standing astride the boundary" I hope to evade the disciplining of the disciplines of both teacher education and sociolinguistics and hold a space for exploration and questioning. Ultimately, I use this exploration and the heuristic of the crítico / criticón as mechanisms and as a provocations to question what the "Critical" of Critical Sociolinguistics currently is and indeed what it could be in the present-future.
