Reframing old debates about the relationship between comparative literature and the social sciences, Professor Brock asks what literary studies and anthropology still have
to learn from one another. What does contemporary anthropological theory have to say about the ethics of approaching a multicultural curriculum? Conversely, how do fictional accounts of ethnographic and pseudo-ethnographic encounters foreground literary-studies methodology as an indispensable tool for navigating intercultural spaces?
