GRIEF-AS-GATEWAY: Imagining an Otherwise Ethnographic Practice

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

The following chapter explores the connections between ethnographic practice and grief, loss, death, and dying. Starting with the author’s experience of losing her mother, she looks in multiple directions: back, to what grief was unremarked upon through her earlier ethnographic work; and forward, to what grief, loss, death, and dying may mean for her (and others’) future ethnographic inquiry. Picking up on work she has done with Amanda Tachine another author in this edited collection the author orients the chapter toward imagining what she poses as an otherwise ethnographic practice, a blending and making of something altogether different through the recognition of how grief and loss are tightly coupled with ethnographic practice.
