Week 4: Talking with Sherry Ortner
This week we read a series of six essays taken from two of Sherry Ortner's collected volumes, Making Gender and Anthropology and Social Theory. Some of us may have the opportunity to hear her public talk about "Indie Producers: Class and the Production of Value in Recent Independent Cinema"--and all of us will get the opporutnity to speak with her during our class on Tuesday.
What questions do you have for Sherry?
What reactions do you have to her speaking and writing?
How relevant and useful is her theorizing for your own disciplinary thinking and/or life practice?
