Understanding Narrative The Praise Song Cultural Borrowing Objects of Power ... In and Out of Context The second part of this introductory essay consists of conversations between the authors. Bourgeois and Rodolitz have team-taught a web-based course on this subject for more than five years utilizing a dialogue medium that lends itself to immediacy and informality. Essays in the usual sense speak TO the reader; dialogue, however, allows the reader to participate, if only in an imaginary sense. Additionally, in the medium of dialogue, the evolution of thought is more apparent than in an edited essay. Often, the journey to a conclusion is as important as the conclusion itself. The reader is encouraged to join in this ongoing exploration. AB: Why don't we begin by considering a group of related objects, not necessarily related by culture but by function?

Vol. V, no. 1 (Winter 1997-98): African Studies. HOME ARCHIVES Table of contents Editorial: African Studies by Dr Gloria Emeagwali,Chief Editor Professor Vladimir Shubin, Institute of African Studies, Moscow: African Studies in Russia Tayo Oke, London University: African Studies in the United Kingdom Olayemi Akinwumi, University of Ilorin, Nigeria: African Studies in Central Nigeria Haines Brown, CCSU: Africa and the Net Editorial: African Studies by Prof. Gloria T Emeagwali Chief Editor of Africa Update In a previous issue of Africa Update we examined some of the methodologies associated with the study of Africa. It was argued that the eurocentric agenda dominates discourse, and that strategies of deception coexist with well-meaning interpretations. To some extent this issue expands on the previous discussion, but we also go beyond it to examine some of the institutional structures which prevail in three regions of the world, namely, the former Soviet Union, the United Kingdom and Africa itself. Dr Vladimir Shubin, the Deputy Director of the Institute for African Studies in the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, points out in his contribution that Northeast Africa was the initial focus of Russian Africanists but this interest has expanded to include the entire continent in terms of a wide range of social and economic issues, including gender relations, the economic crisis in the era of IMF/ World Bank Structural Adjustment and the role of Africa in the world civiliization process.

Horsley Once again Sotheby's has put its Pre-Columbian Art auction into the same catalogue as its African and Oceanic Art auction. See the separate article on the Pre-Columbian Art auction that occurs at 2PM November 11, 2004. This morning auction November 11, 2004 at Sotheby's of African and Oceanic Art is highlighted by a spectacular flute-stopper from New Guinea, a magnificent Yoruba Ram's Head Altarpiece, an impressive Benin bracelet, and a Kongo power figure. Oceanic Art Lot 22 is a magnificent flute-stopper in the form of a male figure with a fabulous feathered headdress from the Lower Sepik River, Yuat River, Biwat region of New Guinea. According to the catalogue entry for this lot, the Biwat carved "elaborate sacred flutes, haiyang, sometimes up to eight to ten feet in length." "Aggressively stanced figures such as this," it continued, "were inserted at the top of the flute when not it use. It was these flutes which the Biwat themselves considered their most important and sacred objects. Their social, ceremonial and religious significance was tremendous. Although several cults existed, these figures are often considered to be the children of the mother crocodile spirit, a powerful being that performed creative deeds in primeval times and let initiates be reborn by symbolically swallowing and throwing out the candidates."

'Legions of corner grills serve up great gyros or burgers. The genius at Lincoln Town Gyros who decided to combine the two should get a key to the city. While a third-of-a-pound burger sizzles on the grill, the counterman slices off a good six or seven strips of gyro meat from the round. On request, he places these next to the grilling burger to give the gyro a little extra char. The patty is then placed on a bun, topped with tomato, onion, pickle and a ladle of cheese sauce (or a slice of American or Swiss).

Web Awards For information on the RAI please contact the office manager and about the website contact the The recontextualization of culture in UK museums ANTHONY SHELTON Anthropology Today Vol. 8, No. 5, October 1992, pp. 11-16 (c) Royal Anthropological Institute Until recently, local museums have done little to dispel this chilling, but to some intensely compelling and romantic image of arrested time and decay. There are few other areas where the effects of lethargy and neglect have been more acutely felt than in ethnography displays, where under-capitalization, lack of specialized expertise and problems of contextualization have threatened the preservation of materials and compromised the commitment of serious curators to provide appropriate settings for their collections. The Marischal Museum, Aberdeen, combines excellent visual presentation with a challenging comparative approach to anthropological themes. Many of the country's estimated 378 ethnographic collection remain in storage.
