However, the book's goal is not to dig up evidence of the creation of an epistemology of knowledge and its transnational connections. The research on which this book is based suggests that the artefacts created in fieldwork, offices, libraries, laboratories, museums, and other places and experiences - beyond the important fact that these places and situations involved actors other than the anthropologists themselves - have been different things during their troubled existence. The book seeks to make these differences apparent, highlighting rather than concealing the relationships between partial modes of making and being 'Afro' as a subject of science. If the artefacts created in a variety of situations have been different things, we should ask what sort of things they were and how the actors involved in their creation sought to make them meaningful. The book foregrounds these discontinuous and ever-changing contours.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ol?ia Maria Gomes Da Cunha\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004525734\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004525733\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/29\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 772\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Ol?ia Maria Gomes Da Cunha","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44132040212735,"sku":"9789004525733","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4331d932-6288-43a2-8d93-f6cd0172ae22.jpg?v=1687477867","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-things-of-others-olvia-maria-gomes-da-cunha-9789004525733","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
