The Art Of Teaching Anthropology: Examples From Biological Anthropology, Susan Kirkpatrick Smith, Laura D. Lund, Marilyn R. London Jun 2022

The Art Of Teaching Anthropology: Examples From Biological Anthropology, Susan Kirkpatrick Smith, Laura D. Lund, Marilyn R. London

Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society

Teaching in a college or university setting has many challenges, including often-inadequate preparation in graduate school and the requirement to develop new courses, often in a short period of time. Anthropology faculty are at a particular disadvantage because anthropology lacks any discipline-specific journals for the publication of articles on the scholarship of teaching and learning. Many anthropology faculty desire to have more resources available for course and assignment development. In this chapter, we present several examples of course syllabi, class activities, and a sample student paper that faculty can use as they develop or revise anthropology courses.


Arts Integration As Critical Pedagogy, Elizabeth A. Sheehan Jun 2022

Arts Integration As Critical Pedagogy, Elizabeth A. Sheehan

Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society

This chapter discusses arts integration in K-12 education as a form of critical pedagogy, a way to create a “curriculum within the curriculum” that meets the demands of standardized testing while encouraging students to make meaningful connections to the material they are taught. Arts integration allows teachers to use a wide range of art forms to teach core subjects, including those emphasized by statewide standardized tests. Focusing on an arts integration project for fourth graders at a Title I elementary school in Richmond, Virginia, the chapter describes how the study of African American history in the former capital of the …


Race And Rhythm In Rock And Roll, Hector Qirko Jun 2022

Race And Rhythm In Rock And Roll, Hector Qirko

Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society

This chapter argues that contrary to conventional wisdom and the views of many scholars and critics, rock and roll’s most important rhythmic elements are derived from a complex blend of African, American, and European musical traditions. There is therefore no objective support for racialized characterizations of the “beat” that often serve, however unintentionally, to perpetuate stereotypes in discussions of both the genre and American popular music more broadly.


Style And Configuration In Prehistoric Iconography, Vernon James Knight Jr. Jun 2022

Style And Configuration In Prehistoric Iconography, Vernon James Knight Jr.

Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society

The iconography of ancient art has to do with making propositions about what that art depicts. Stylistic studies, in contrast, make propositions about the sharedness of formal properties with other objects. These can be done separately. Although many iconographic analyses of ancient art proceed with little or no consideration of style, I argue that the two modes of analysis are interdependent. I offer a methodological case that stylistic analysis is logically prior to iconographic study in the domain of ancient art. This observation argues for a distinctively staged approach to the iconography of ancient objects, one in which detailed stylistic …


Defining Art In The Gozo International Contemporary Arts Festival, Rachel Syka Jun 2022

Defining Art In The Gozo International Contemporary Arts Festival, Rachel Syka

Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society

This chapter explores the role of identity, place, and origin of the artists in the Gozo International Contemporary Arts Festival in Gozo, Malta. Based on research conducted in July 2010 for a summer field school in sociocultural anthropology, I draw on conversations with several of the artists showing their work, as well as interactions with local organizing officials, arts instructors, and Gozitan artists and craftspeople not directly involved in the exhibit. I argue that the event is a space in which central questions of Gozitan identity are actively addressed and negotiated, focusing particularly on the manner in which the international …


Pocahontas And Rebecca: Two Tales Of A Captive, Margaret Williamson Huber Jun 2022

Pocahontas And Rebecca: Two Tales Of A Captive, Margaret Williamson Huber

Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society

The Jamestown colonists’ accounts of their capture of Pocahontas, her reactions to life among them, and the consequences for the success of the colony differ radically from the Mattaponi Indian oral history of the same events, published in 2007. Both versions present themselves as “true” — that is, objective reporting of real events; but the fact that each inverts the other raises questions of validity and, ultimately, of historiography in general. This paper argues that the question of veracity is irrelevant to our interpretation of these accounts. Instead, we must take them as representations of a culturally conceived reality—that is, …

Art As Distraction: Rocking The Farm, Daniel W. Ingersoll, Kathleen Butler Ingersoll Jun 2022

Art As Distraction: Rocking The Farm, Daniel W. Ingersoll, Kathleen Butler Ingersoll

Proceedings of the annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society

Monumental architecture, massive statuary, and other art forms fascinate Westerners and tend to inspire positive judgments about past cultural virtuosity and sophistication. Like the pyramids of Egypt or the stone masonry of Machu Picchu, the moai (the statues) and ahu (stone platforms supporting moai) of Rapa Nui (a.k.a. Easter Island) have impressed, mystified, and preoccupied the Western cultural imagination since their encounter by Europeans. Explorers, archaeologists, anthropologists, and tourists are drawn to the monumental like moths to light—which is understandable—but that light also blinds. Here a case is made that for Rapa Nui the obsession for the monumental has led …
