Suffering and Christianity: conversion and ethical change among the Newars of Bhaktapur
Get PDFThis thesis argues that conversion to Christianity in the Nepali city of Bhaktapur is closely connected with ethical attitudes towards suffering in Bhaktapurian churches. This argument is situated within broader debates in the anthropology of Christianity. Anthropologists have debated the extent to which Christianity is a force for cultural discontinuity, and have often connected it with modernity and individualism. I contribute to these discussions by showing how distinctively Christian conceptions of suffering may promote cultural change by stimulating new understandings of selfhood and ethics. The first three chapters explore the social life of Bhaktapur’s Hindu majority. I describe how the last fifty years have seen a process of cultural unsettlement in Bhaktapur; one aspect of this unsettlement has been a disruption of traditional norms of care and deference. It is in this context that the distinctive ethics of Christianity have proved attractive to some. Those who convert have typically experienced a significant episode of suffering, and have felt themselves to be failed by those around them. They find in churches a framework that emphasises the moral significance of inner experience (I call this ‘inwardness’) and addresses affliction more in terms of ethics than ritual. I describe these ethics in terms of ‘care’: they stress presence with the afflicted person, engagement with their experience, and appeal to God in prayer. After two chapters describing Christianity in Nepal and Bhaktapur in general terms, I devote four chapters to examining different categories of Bhaktapurian Christians: those who have experienced healing, women, leaders, and youth. I focus on four conversion narratives, and relate these narratives both to other ethnographic materials and to broader trends in Bhaktapurian and global Christianity. I highlight the significance of the values of inwardness and care, and of narrative itself, in the life-worlds of Bhaktapurian Christians

Ramón Sarró y el Psicoanálisis: historia del Acercamiento y la Abjuración
No full textRamon Sarró was, along with Salvador Dali, the only Spanish who had a personal interview with Freud.
It happened in 1925 and, at first, the meeting was evaluated by the Catalan psychiatrist as a “peak
experience” but in barely a year and a half, became in disappointment and disown. His mental horizon,
instead of opening thanks to sparkling insight was narrowing in Sarró’s experience. Excessive orthodoxy
observed between supporters and analysts who surrounded Freud, dissuaded Sarró to continue in Viena.
He returned from Viena as an “anti-Freudian” and, since then, his interest in mythologems grew, the
study of delusions and schizophrenia. He ended his career with a phenomenological visión and mythical
of “demens homo”Ramón Sarró fue, junto a Salvador Dalí, el único español que mantuvo una entrevista personal con Freud.
Sucedió en 1925 y, al principio, el encuentro fue evaluado por el psiquiatra catalán como “experiencia
cumbre”, pero en apenas año y medio devino en decepción y reniego. Su horizonte mental, en vez de
abrirse gracias a rutilantes insight, fue estrechándose en la vivencia de Sarró. La excesiva ortodoxia
observada entre los partidarios y analistas que rodeaban a Freud, pese a la insuficiente demostración de
sus postulados y a su hermética actitud defensiva, disuadió a Sarró de continuar en Viena. Regresó de
Viena como un ‘antifreudiano’ y, desde entonces, creció su interés por los mitologemas, el estudio de los
delirios y la esquizofrenia. Culminó su trayectoria con una visión fenomenológica y mítica del “homo
demens

Órganos vitales y metáforas mortales: un relato sobre hospitales portugueses y diáspora africana
Get PDFThis article, based on a case of medical neglect towards an African migrant, explores rumours about organ theft in Portuguese hospitals spread among African migrants. The author sees these rumours as an expression of rage against a society that marginalizes and excludes migrants. Contrariwise to authors who have studied organ theft rumours as an expression of “millennial capitalism”, he proposes to centre the attention in the continuities rather than in abrupt ruptures. The author takes some distance from scholars for whom the investigation on rumours would only make sense inasmuch as it could lead towards denouncing specific real cases. For the author, rumours themselves can lead us towards other injustices, much more embedded in our everyday life, that must also be denounced
Ethnography as tradition in Africa
Get PDFThis dossier comprises reviews of five recently published Africanist ethnographies: some fully contemporary (by Ramon Sarró, Mike McGovern and Harry West); one previously unread (by David Webster); and, finally, a major classic re-edited in Portuguese (Junod’s Unicamp edition). Ramon Sarró and I decided to organize it because we felt that we could highlight in this way how the practice of ethnography, old as it is, will remain fully alive tomorrow – no less in English than in the Portuguese-s..
