摘要

《抽象真理的傻瓜》是人类学家德里克·弗里曼的一本富有同情心的传记，他以对玛格丽特·米德的《萨摩亚成年》的严厉批评而闻名。历史学家Hempenstall记录了弗里曼的生活和工作，包括对米德-弗里曼争议的评价。亨彭斯塔尔对弗里曼的思想、动机和意图以及他的个人斗争感兴趣。他认为，在文化人类学家之间的一场不文明的“战争”中，弗里曼被误解、诽谤和丑化了。这篇评论考察了亨彭斯塔尔对弗里曼个人斗争的解读，以及他对弗里曼关于米德和萨摩亚的两本书的看法。

In search of Derek Freeman

Abstract Truth’s Fool is a sympathetic biography of Derek Freeman, the anthropologist best known for his scathing critique of Margaret Mead’s Coming of Age in Samoa. Hempenstall, a historian, chronicles Freeman’s life and work, including an appraisal of the Mead–Freeman controversy. Hempenstall is interested in Freeman’s ideas, motives, and intentions as well as his personal struggles. He argues that Freeman has been misunderstood, maligned, and vilified in an uncivil “war” among cultural anthropologists. This review examines Hempenstall’s interpretation of Freeman’s personal struggles and his perspective on Freeman’s two books on Mead and Samoa.

期刊介绍： Reviews in Anthropology is the only anthropological journal devoted to lengthy, in-depth review commentary on recently published books. Titles are largely drawn from the professional literature of anthropology, covering the entire range of work inclusive of all sub-disciplines, including biological, cultural, archaeological, and linguistic anthropology; a smaller number of books is selected from related disciplines. Articles evaluate the place of new books in their theoretical and topical literatures, assess their contributions to anthropology as a whole, and appraise the current state of knowledge in the field. The highly diverse subject matter sustains both specialized research and the generalist tradition of holistic anthropology.
