In 1931 Ludwig Wittgenstein wrote his famous Remarks on Frazer's
",Golden Bough,", published posthumously in 1967. At that time,
anthropology and philosophy were in close contact - continental
thinkers drew heavily on anthropology's theoretical terms, like
mana, taboo, and potlatch, in order to help them explore the limits
of human belief and imagination. Now the book receives its first
translation by an anthropologist, in the hope that it can kickstart
a new era of interdisciplinary fertilization. Wittgenstein's
remarks on ritual, magic, religion, belief, ceremony, and Frazer's
own logical presuppositions are as lucid and thought - provoking
now as they were in Wittgenstein's day. Anthropologists find
themselves asking many of the same questions as Wittgenstein - and
in a reflection of that, this volume is fleshed out with a series
of engagements with Wittgenstein's ideas by some of the world's
leading anthropologists, including Veena Das, David Graeber, Wendy
James, Heonik Kwon, Michael Lambek, Michael Puett, and Carlo
Severi.
