In the event Toward an Anthropology of Generic Moments
The exploration of events and situations has long been at the focus of anthro- pological ethnographic description. In common with many other disciplines in the social sciences and humanities, this has been so in two main and frequently combined senses: (1) as exemplifications or illustrations, usually in the form of case studies, of more general ethnographic descriptive or theoretical assertions, or (2) as happenings or occasions, slices of life, that establish a conundrum or problematic that the presentation of an ethnography and its analysis will solve or otherwise explain.

RIBUTED OBJECTS Meaning and Mattering after Alfred Gell
This volume is both a protention and a retention: a nodal point in a series of conversations between Alfred Gell and a collection of scholars who have in various ways drawn inspiration from, critiqued and expanded his seminal ‘anthropological theory of art’, Art and Agency (1998). Its origins lie in the ‘Art and Agency: Ten Years On’ symposium, which we convened in Cambridge on 15 November 2008 to mark the tenth anniversary of the book’s posthumous publication.
