Description

Explore the realities of ethnographic research with The Bamboo Fire: Field Work with the New Guinea Wape by Routledge. Unlike laboratory-based experimental sciences that rely on controlled settings, anthropology requires studying life experience in its natural environment. This work examines the Wape people of Papua New Guinea, who reside in sedentary villages within a mountainous rainforest. To truly understand how people organize their lives through thought and action, an anthropologist must live among them for an extended period. This text provides a look into that process of long-term immersion and observation in a natural setting.

Key Features

This Routledge publication provides a deep look into the field work methods used in anthropology.

Learn about the Wape people who inhabit the mountainous rainforests of Papua New Guinea.

The text explores the differences between controlled experimental sciences and naturalistic anthropology.

Gain insight into how sedentary village life is studied through long-term immersion and observation.
