About the book:

Creativity and play erupt in the most solemn of everyday worlds as individuals reshape traditional forms in the light of changing historical circumstances. In this lively volume, fourteen distinguished anthropologists explore the role of creativity in social life across the globe and within the study of ethnography itself.

Dedicated to the memory of Victor Turner, the volume is at once playful and political, bridging innovative theory and practice.
