Abstract

"Multimodal Methods in Anthropology develops several goals simultaneously. First, it is an introduction to the ways that multimodality might work for students and practitioners of anthropology, using multiple examples from the authors' research and from the field. Second, the book carefully examines the ethics of a multimodal project, including the ways in which multimodality challenges and reproduces "digital divides". Finally, the book is a theoretical introduction that repositions the history of anthropology along axes of multimodality, and re-frames many of the essential questions in anthropology alongside collaboration and access. Each chapter introduces new methods and techniques, frames the ethical considerations, and contextualizes the method in the work of other anthropologists. Multimodal Methods in Anthropology takes both students and practitioners through historical and contemporary sites of multimodality and introduces the methodological and theoretical challenges of multimodal anthropology in a digital world. Like multimodality itself, readers will come away with new ideas and new perspectives on old ideas, together with the tools to make them part of their anthropology. It is an ideal text for a variety of methods-based courses in anthropology and qualitative research at both the undergraduate and the graduate level"--
