Dienstag | 17.15 Uhr | Rajasthan Fieldwork Retrospective: Four Decades Prof. Ann Grodzins Gold (Syracuse University) I began my doctoral research in rural Rajasthan towards the end of the rainy season in 1979. My most recent formal fieldwork project was in 2010-2011. Since then I have revisited the same region frequently to connect with old friends, observing and photographing informally. This lecture offers a visual and narrative account uniting personal and intellectual history while sketching longitudinal transformations in the region. Needless to say, over these four decades I have also changed -- as have anthropology, the natural environment, and postcolonial conditions. My local and partial knowledge is inevitably embedded in many broader contexts but my fieldwork methods rely on intimate ethnography and stay close to the ground.
