Focused on the intensive study of human diversity across time and space, it is a field that is both eclectic and rigorous. Anthropologists explore topics as varied as human experience, employing methods such as ethnography, linguistic and semiotic analysis, and archaeology. At the undergraduate level, there are courses in all four traditional subfields: sociocultural, linguistics, archaeology, and biological anthropology. Geographical orientations range from South Asia and East Asia to North America, Africa, Europe, Latin America, and the Caribbean. Current topical strengths of the department include science and technology, medicine, environment, capitalism, material culture, urbanism, migration, indigenous studies, racial inequality, gender and sexuality, language and meaning, media studies, populism, political violence, genomics, heritage, critical global studies, and cross-cultural approaches to law, empire, and religion. Anthropology provides unparalleled training for further graduate study in the social sciences, humanities, and biological studies, and for professional careers in academic teaching and research, business, communications, governmental and non-governmental organizations, law, medicine, museum and arts administration, tech industries, social services, and other fields. For more information, see the Department of Anthropology website (http://anthropology.uchicago.edu). This approaches bodies as points of insight into governance, the varied experiences of being governed, and efforts to evade and reconfigure institutional expressions of authority. First, we will examine bodies as targets of governance, objects to be reformed, regulated, contained, disciplined, educated, incarcerated, treated, trained, and \"cared\" for. Next, we will consider how bodies accrue power as sites of resistance, refusal, and critique. Certain bodies in certain places elicit discomfort, unsettling familiar divisions such as of private and public space, of developed and backward, of religious and secular, of reason and madness, of citizenship and (often racialized) non-citizenship. Finally, we will ask how bodies and sensory practices figure in ethical projects of crafting exemplary kinds of subjectivity or collectivity. In this way, the course will introduce students to anthropological approaches to embodiment as well as related questions of bio-politics, gender and race, political subjectivity, care and self-making, post/colonialism, sensory politics and the aesthetic. Along the way, students will gain a new appreciation of the political potency of bodies and bodily practices near and far-from Lenin's preserved body to Trump's \"small\" hands, reproductive labor to sex work, dirty protest to women's marches, indigenous eco-rituals to queer intimacies. in A study of storytelling in non-literate and folk societies, antecedent to the com","PeriodicalId":234905,"journal":{"name":"The Cambridge Companion to the Scottish Enlightenment","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131319530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As historians attempt to weigh local varieties of Enlightenment, informed by disparate religious, political and cultural settings, against the transnational concerns and cosmopolitan aspirations of 'the' Enlightenment, Scotland posits a remarkable case in point. Scotland's European contexts have often been overlooked; by the same token, its distinct features can only be mapped against the contours of the European Enlightenment. David Hume, Adam Smith, William Robertson, John Millar and Adam Ferguson were subtle disciples of European intellectual traditions, and conversant with a range of Enlightenment cultures. At the same time, their writings convey a powerful sense of Scotland's incomparable position as a kingdom within the British union, set apart by its church and jurisprudence, and by its singular decision to trade sovereignty for empire. Nowhere is this apparent tension more pronounced than in the field of political theory. POLITICS AND THE SCOTS Taken as a field of enquiry, politics is a conjuncture of mind-sets\u0000 responding to contemporary political issues, critical perusals of intellectual\u0000 traditions and cross-fermentation with other sciences. The balance between these elements may differ according to era and\u0000 culture; but eighteenth-century Scottish thinkers were able to draw\u0000 vigorously on all three sources of inspiration. Their political thought\u0000 was accordingly shaped by three sets of problems: Scotland’s voluntary\u0000 loss of sovereignty in an age when statehood and statecraft steadily gained importance; the need for a viable modern theory of\u0000 politics amid clashing idioms of the good life and the good polity; and\u0000 the tall order set by the natural sciences for standards of certainty,\u0000 regularity and predictability in the study of human affairs.","PeriodicalId":234905,"journal":{"name":"The Cambridge Companion to the Scottish Enlightenment","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116398584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Elaborating on the interpretation of the Scottish Enlightenment advanced by Nicholas Phillipson, John Christie argued in a series of influential essays that the pursuit of natural knowledge was one of the 'major elements whose combination formed the culture of the Scottish Enlightenment'. Stronger claims for the importance of science and medicine were subsequently made by Roger L. Emerson, who contended that if we are properly to understand the origins and defining characteristics of the Scottish Enlightenment then we must see the cultivation of natural knowledge as being central to enlightened culture in eighteenth-century Scotland. On the other hand, following the lead of Hugh Trevor-Roper (Lord Dacre), John Robertson recently insisted that the Scottish Enlightenment should be defined in terms of a core of related enquiries in moral philosophy, history and political economy, and that the natural sciences and medicine were peripheral to the intellectual preoccupations of enlightened savants in Scotland and in the Atlantic world more generally. Richard Sher likewise rejects Emerson's claims, and suggests that the Scottish Enlightenment can be more fruitfully defined in terms of the 'culture of the literati' which, for Sher, encompassed science and medicine but was not rooted in these fields. While it would be inappropriate here to enter into the complexities of this debate, we should recognise that the points at issue are far from trivial because they raise serious questions not only about how we characterise the Enlightenment as an historical phenomenon but also about how we conceptualise the genesis of our own world.","PeriodicalId":234905,"journal":{"name":"The Cambridge Companion to the Scottish Enlightenment","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127889879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
