Anthropology Anonymous 2017-03-01 02:34:28 Post No. 9172120 [Report] [View this topic]

I'm taking a cultural anthropology course. From what I can gather, most anthropologists study and empathize with poor people, and claim that they are cultural relativists while decrying racism, sexism, female genital mutilation, violence, torture, honor killings, etc. as "objectively wrong" in the same breath. Also, most anthropologists are women and/or non-white, and they seem to have a disturbing internal hatred against white people.

Is this accurate?

A formless and dull mass of phony folklore, a cold pudding of a book. Conventional and drab, redeemed from utter insipidity only by infrequent snatches of heavenly intonations. Detest it. A cancerous growth of fancy word-tissue hardly redeems the dreadful joviality of the folklore and the easy, too easy, allegory. Indifferent to it, as to all regional literature written in dialect. A tragic failure and a frightful bore.

A favorite between the ages of 8 and 14. Essentially a writer for very young people. Certainly inferior to Hemingway and Wells. Intolerable souvenir-shop style, romanticist cliches. Nothing I would care to have written myself. In mentality and emotion, hopelessly juvenile. Romantic in the large sense. Slightly bogus.

Lovecraft is pretty simple, and has a decent vocab, so I would start with him (if you don't mind "casual racism," as it has come to be called). From there, it's easy to get into Poe, and from there, other American Southern Gothic (e.g. Faulkner). Although if you do get to Faulkner, I'd start with something like Sanctuary rather than SatF.

So, there are a lot of videos and articles about writers and their perfect enviroments to write. But how about writers who wrote under extremely stressful enviroments or contexts (no a bad day or a broken heart, but an awful enviroment).

I think environment is an excuse.

What if it's too painful to write? Does one have to be over the emotions of recalling of a memory in order to write about it? Any advice for either?
