Journal de terrain, Longwy, semaine 15] découverte des vitraux Majorelle


Nous allons avec Guy aux Grands Bureaux voir les vitraux Majorelle. Cette découverte est incroyable. Les vitraux sont magnifiques. Beau moment. Les vitraux Majorelle ont servi de médiation à Guy afin de m’expliquer les différents travaux dans les usines. 
Juste à côté, un énorme terrain vide, sur lequel trônait avant l’une des 5 usines du bassin de Longwy.

[plus d’infos sur notre projet] La ville de Longwy a une histoire intimement liée avec celle de la sidérurgie. Ville des luttes ouvrières, ville de migration. Il ne reste aujourd’hui presque plus de trace de cette histoire. De janvier à juin 2021 nous réaliserons avec Nabila Halim un travail photographique et sonore avec les habitant•e•s de Longwy et les 4e D du collège Vauban autour de la thématique de la migration. Cette belle aventure est possible grâce à l’association Caranusca et la ville de Longwy.

[field note, Longwy, week 15] : dicovering Majorelle’s stained glass windows

We go with Guy to the Grands Bureaux to see the Majorelle stained-glass windows. The discovery is incredible — the windows are beautiful. A wonderful moment. The Majorelle windows served as a way for Guy to explain the different kinds of work once done in the factories. Right next to them lies a vast empty field, where one of the five factories of the Longwy basin once stood.

[Some information about our project]: From January to June 2021, together with Nabila Halim, we will carry out a photographic and sound project with the residents of Longwy and students of Vauban Middle School, exploring the theme of migration. This wonderful adventure is made possible thanks to the Caranusca Association and the city of Longwy

Next month will be the 40th anniversary of the “intensive discussions” in Santa Fe, NM, USofA, which gave #anthros the (in)famous Writing Culture text.

books.google.ca/books?id=EUfaQ

There are diverse ways to describe that moment. Many of those would make it a turning point. A pivot? Inflection point? The onset of the #CrisisOfRepresentation?

Any living #ethnographer can reflect upon (and through) that epoch.

Google BooksWriting CultureIn these new essays, a group of experienced ethnographers, a literary critic, and a historian of anthropology, all known for advanced analytic work on ethnographic writing, place ethnography at the center of a new intersection of social history, interpretive anthropology, travel writing, discourse theory, and textual criticism. The authors analyze classic examples of cultural description, from Goethe and Catlin to Malinowski, Evans-Pritchard, and Le Roy Ladurie, showing the persistence of allegorial patterns and rhetorical tropes. They assess recent experimental trends and explore the functions of orality, ethnicity, and power in ethnographic composition. Writing Culture argues that ethnography is in the midst of a political and epistemological crisis: Western writers no longer portray non-Western peoples with unchallenged authority; the process of cultural representation is now inescapably contingent, historical, and contestable. The essays in this volume help us imagine a fully dialectical ethnography acting powerfully in the postmodern world system. They challenge all writers in the humanities and social sciences to rethink the poetics and politics of cultural invention.
