O knihe


The island of Corsica has long been a popular destination for travelersin search of the European exotic, but it has also been a focus of French concernsabout national unity and identity. Today, Corsica is part of a vibrantFranco-Mediterranean social universe. Starting from an ethnographic study in aCorsican village, Corsican Fragments explores nationalism, language, kinship, andplace, as well as popular discourses and concerns about violence, migration, andsociety. Matei Candea traces ideas about inclusion and exclusion through thesedifferent realms, as Corsicans, "Continentals," tourists, and the anthropologistmake and unmake connections with one another in their everyday encounters. Candea'sevocative and gracefully written account provides new insights into the dilemmas ofunderstanding cultural difference and the difficulties and rewards offieldwork.
