Excerpt: We of the industrialized world of the twenty-first century are awash in
photography. As an anonymous Portside posting of March 9, 2012 reads: ÒAs
the camera shrinks in size, becomes ever present and hardly ever noticed, its
impact just keeps growing.Ó Who could argue with that? The Portside
writer's take on this situation is distinctly optimistic: ÒThe video record is
our collective memory, our conscience, our shield against deception and
amnesia; our political as well as artistic resource of choice.Ó But is it
really? Is it not also pervasive surveillance and invasion of privacy? Can we
be sure that the resulting pictures will not be used for the manipulation of
the historical record, of our opinions and attitudes, whether political,
aesthetic, or economic? Is it not true that at present the manipulation or ÒeditingÓ
of photographs, whether of events or individuals, is within the reach even of
teenagers? How then can we distinguish the actual from the fictive?

Summary: ÒPika-PikaÓ (a
Japanese onomatopoeic expression conjuring up the flashing of fireflies) is a
multi-disciplinary, multi-regional collection of academic papers written by twenty-two
scholars,, of ten different nationalities and an even greater number of
ethnicities. The authors, who are scattered across the globe from North America
through the South Pacific to East, Southeast and South Asia, have contributed
to this book because they wish to honour in this way a cherished friend,
Pauline Hetland Walker, who lost her bold fight against breast cancer on Easter
morning of 2005. The book includes contributions from anthropologists,
sociologists, linguists and geographers, as well as from music, theatre and
literary specialists. An eclectic collection of materials, which, incidentally,
would have delighted the person whom they honour, all the individual
contributions have been inspired, nonetheless, by Pauline Walker's own special
life interests.

to the field, the contributors go on to share important lessons learned over
the course of their careers. The result is a unique volume in the social
sciences, one that provides insight and stories from experienced professionals
and has the ability to be a source of guidance to a new generation of scholars.

Database: ResearchGate
Summary: This section in The Encyclopedia of Sex and Gender defines comparisons between
possession and multiple personality disorders. In Western tradition, possession
beliefs are rooted in Jewish and Greek sources. Non-Western people (Christian
missionaries) often misidentified positive possessions by ancestral spirits with
demons to be expelled. É Spirit possessions and rituals from Haiti, Cuba,
Trinidad and Brazil come from the same African origins. É They are common,
controlled, socially useful, highly valued, encouraged and satisfying. In
India, where negative possessions and exorcisms are found, possessing spirits
are those who are dead and most of their victims are young women. É In Judaism,
victims are normally young women and spirits tend to be dead sinners who are
men. A rabbi conducts exorcism by questioning the spirit. Exorcism has been
seen as a means to treat perceived social and psychological disorders, which
are caused by demonic possession. These disorders range from schizophrenia and
depression to alcoholism and apparent character changes.

Summary: Much first-hand material has been collected by various institutions
documenting the experience of Holocaust survivors. A constant stream of new
primary documents and secondary analyses is being published. These accounts
show some common themes, yet no two experiences are alike. In spite of this
major effort at keeping memory alive, there is an equal push toward forgetting
and/or suppressing knowledge of the Holocaust. For a number of years, the
subject of the Holocaust was virtually taboo. As anthropologists, we can learn
from other peoples (Haitians, Andean Indians) about how they have turned memory
into mythic history.

Excerpt: Necromancy is a theme
often found in myths, legends, and literary works. Such texts may describe
communications with the dead or state their messages, but they seldom provide
information on actual techniques that might have been employed in a given community.
With regard to classical antiquity, Greek and Roman accounts deal with cases
described in myth and legend, but there is no evidence of actual necromantic
practices, whether in inscriptions or in documentation of specific historic
events.

Summary: This book provides a definitive
overview of psychocultural anthropology: a subject that focuses on cultural,
psychological, and social interrelations across cultures. It brings together
original essays by leading scholars in the field, offers an in-depth
exploration of the concepts and topics that have emerged through contemporary
ethnographic work and the processes of global change. Key issues range from
studies of consciousness and time, emotion, cognition, dreaming, and memory, to
the lingering effects of racism and ethnocentrism, violence, identity and
subjectivity.

Excerpt: In the spring of 1947, the Belgian artist Paul-Henri Bourguignon (1906–88)
arrived in Haiti for a brief stay. He remained for fifteen months. What he
found there affected his work deeply, and did so for the rest of his life. He
had traveled widely before the war, exploring, beyond his own region, what were
then far away and exotic places: Spain, Corsica, Yugoslavia, North Africa. He
had felt deprived of the freedom to wander—among other
freedoms—during the time of the German occupation. Now he craved the
skies and the colors of the South, and the pleasure of dépaysement that
he had found in alien lands.

Summary: This article
is an argument that, for women, possession trance constitutes a psychodynamic
response to powerlessness by providing them a means for the gratification of
wishes ordinarily denied to them. Powerful alter entities enable them to act
out wishes they cannot express directly. Possession serves both as an idiom of
distress and of indirect self-assertion, facilitated by ritualized, culturally
structured dissociation.

Summary: Melville J. Herskovits (1895–1963) is best known as a pioneer in the
turn of American anthropology to Afro-American and African studies. He was one
of the first among American anthropologists to emphasize the importance of
Africa for an understanding of the cultures of the descendants of Africans in
the Americas. A student of Boas, he vigorously championed comparativism,
ethno-history, and cultural relativism, emphasizing the worth of each of the
cultures he studied. It is less well known that he also contributed an
important concept to psychological anthropology. He wrote of "socialized
ambivalence" with reference to Haiti, but did not seek to apply it elsewhere
and, indeed, never returned to it again. This paper revisits that concept in
the context of Caribbean ethnography and considers its place in Herskovits'
work.

Summary: Bronka Schneider, E. Bourguignon’s aunt, and Bronka’a husband, Joseph, were two of the 30,000 Austrian Jews admitted as refugees to Great Britain between March 1938 and September 1939. It was not until 1960, however, that Bronka wrote her memoir about the year she spent as a housekeeper, with Joseph as a butler, in a Scottish castle. Bronka tells of daily encounters—with her employers, the English lady and her husband; the village locals; other refugees; and a family of evacuees from the slums of Glasgow. Erika Bourgignon provides historical, political, and cultural background of this period. Bourguignon is professor emeritus of anthropology at The Ohio State University.

Summary: Bourguignon reviews the Spindlers' work over many
years that repeatedly demonstrated, through the use of several objective
techniques and statistical treatment, that men and women react differently to
culture change across different cultures and time periods. Women were found to
be more conservative but more flexible and thus better able to cope with
culture change. Bourguignon discusses the relationship between fantasy and
instrumental activity in women undergoing culture change. She presents data
from her own work on women graduate students making career choices and women in
possession trance religions.

Summary: Hortense Powdermaker taught at
Queens College for thirty years. In her autobiography, Stranger and Friend (1966), however, she is silent on that part of
her career. As an undergraduate at Queens College during the war years, I
recall Powdermaker's work as a teacher with specific reference to two of her
courses, "American Minority Peoples" and "Culture and
Personality." The former dealt with a field to which her own research has
contributed. The latter covered a field in which she is less well known but
concerned a movement in the anthropology of the 1940s which influenced her and
in which she herself took strong positions.

This article considers the implications of definitions and typologies of
trance and shamanism for development and testing of cross-cultural hypotheses
through a review of definitions, typologies, and use of key terms and related
concepts in anthropology. Classifications range from narrow and highly specific
to broad and inclusive coverage. Some restrict usage to traditional societies,
while others seek applications to Western phenomena, whether faith healers and
mediums, or poets, such as Walt Whitman. The concept of control, with a variety
of meanings assigned to it, emerges as a significant variable in the
comparative study of "trance" and "shamanism" as these
terms are used by different authors in widely different manners.

Summary:
Comparative studies of and by women have raised challenging questions for
anthropological research and theory building. Although male bias has been
widely discussed, other sources of bias are also seen to be at work, and their
effects, it is argued, are not limited to research concerning the position of
women. Myth building, instead of the construction of scientific theories, may
result. The theory of a universal male dominance is used to illustrate this
point.

Abstract:
A dichotomous division of life space into two domains of activity, pub1ic and domestic, has been treated as virtually axiomatic in much of the feminist literature, with a further identification of public/male and domestic/female. Thist study offers empirical data on the saliency of this distinction in the thinking of a sample of Americans. Findings indicate that a simplistic distinction between public and domestic does not reflect accurately the actual categorizations of life space made by contemporary Americans. Consequently, such classifications cannot be cross-culturally assumed.

Summary:
This paper represents a reanalysis of data from earlier studies supporting the
hypothesis that cultural patterning of altered states of consciousness (trance)
conforms to a monothetic general evolutionary scale of sociocultural behavior.
Global correlations using holocultural methodology show trance type to be
positively correlated with four selected evolutionary variables, two related to
societal complexity and two related to subsistence economy.

Summary: This paper
reports on the results of a large-scale cross-cultural study of spirit
possession beliefs and of the societal variables with which they are
associated. Spirit possession beliefs were found to exist in 74% of a sample of
488 societies in all parts of the world. Such beliefs may be linked as an
explanatory system to ritualized altered states of consciousness or they may
serve as explanations for a variety of other culturally defined phenomena,
ranging from illness to witchcraft on the negative side, and, on the positive
side, they may serve as an explanation for various types of powers and skills.
The distribution of these beliefs is dicussed and a typology of societies is
presented in which societies that have possession trance (i.e. possession beliefs
linked to altered states of consciousness) are contrasted with societies that
have not institutionalized such states. A number of societal variables, derived
from the Ethnographic Atlas, are
shown to be significantly related to this typology. The implications of these
statistical findings are discussed.

Summary:
Erika Bourguignon, well known for her long-time interest in possession states, presents
in this paper a comparative cross-cultural study of traits encountered in
American “marginal” movements that are largely absent from “mainline” religious
institutions. Experiences of a peculiar intensity that subjectively verify
belief through ecstatic states she denominates as “altered states of
consciousness” including both possession trance and trance but excluding those
with minimal religious cultural patterning such as fever delirium and secular
drinking or drug use, or mediumistic possession trance.

Summary: Starting with
Herskovits' concept of "socialized ambivalence," author attempts to
demonstrate how individual adjustment is made in a civilization whose two
ancestral elements have never fully merged. Focuses on analysis of Rorschach responses
of a young member of the Haitian elite. Discusses origins of the ambivalence in
the social history of Haiti as well as subject's background. This illuminates
how elements of the so-called lower-class culture (e.g. vodou, spirit worship,
etc.) as much as elements of Western civilization learned at school help to
organize the world-view of the elite (despite their denial of the influence of
elements of African origin).

Summary: between 1963
and 1968, Ohio State anthropologist Erika Bourguignon held a Public Health
Service Grant from the National Institutes of Mental Health to pursue research
on dissociational states. She and her colleagues read and analyzed the
ethnographic literature on this topic in a sample of 488 societies from all
parts of the world. The result was that 437 or 90% report one or more
institutionalized, culturally patterned forms of altered states of consciousness
(ASCs). ASCs are defined as conditions in which sensations, perception,
cognition, and emotions are altered. These are characterized by changes in
sensing, perceiving, thinking, and feeling. In addition, these states modify
the relation of the individual to the self, the body, one’s sense of identity,
and the environment of time, space, or other people. They are induced by
modifying sensory input either directly or indirectly.

Lerch, P. B. (2009, February). A mentor: Stranger, friend, mirror, and compass.
Remarks presented at Mirrors & compasses
symposium conducted at the OSU Center for Folklore Studies, Columbus, OH.
Summary: What do
mentors tell their students about being an anthropologist? How is this message
conveyed through the mentorÕs publications that are carefully combed by the
student for hints on how to be a successful anthropologist. Sometimes it is
filtered through situational advice written as letters to the student working
in the field. A mentor is a stranger and a friend, to paraphrase Hortense
PowdermakerÕs book title about fieldwork. She is a stranger because she is
often older and another generation whose life is partially hidden from view.
She becomes a friend when she offers herself as a role model for her students
to follow. Her life holds up a mirror and her advice acts as a compass to
paraphrase Erika BourguignonÕs depiction of the salient aspects of anthropology.
A student looks at her mentorÕs life and hopes to read something in that life
that will give her the courage to follow in the mentorÕs footsteps. The student
clings to her mentorÕs advice like a sailor who is lost a sea clings to her
compass searching for the right direction. This paper reflects on the mentoring
relationship between Hortense Powdermaker and Erika Bourguignon as described in
publication and public presentation by Bourguignon and a record of mentoring
that is preserved in letters between Bourguignon and Lerch when Lerch conducted
her first field research in Brazil.

Summary:
At a time when there is a health care crisis in the United States, there is
widespread appeal to religious healing of various types. Adequate research in
this area is limited. Terms such as ÒecstasyÓ are used inconsistently, limiting
the usefulness of the term, producing confusion rather than understanding. A
cross-cultural comparative perspective is offered.

Summary: Altered States of Consciousness occur in the context of religious belief and ritual in the vast majority of human societies. They represent phenomena of considerable interest from the perspective of each of the Òfour fieldÓ individually. When combined, they allow us to make sense of them in their socio-cultural contexts. Such a multifaceted approach shows the intimate interconnectedness of the fields, and sheds light on humans as psychobiological/sociocultural beings. There is an evolutionary background to the human experience of ASC, and archeological evidence for its antiquity. There is biological, neurophysiological involvement in the behavior, although that is not as yet well understood. And there is a large body of social, cultural and psychocultural material of documentation and analysis available in the ethnographic and theoretical literature. The symbolic dimension is reflected among other things, in vocabulary, esoteric languages and other aspects of language, including ecstatic utterances or glossolalia. It is argued that a full study of ASC in a religious context requires such a comprehensive approach as well as a comparative perspective. Since such states are frequently at the core of religious traditions, they necessarily are central to our study of essential aspects of the phenomenon of religion in human societies.

Summary: American anthropology today is a highly diversified discipline, which has seen rapid growth in recent decades. It had its origins in the study of the American Indian. This central concern of American anthropology gave rise to its characteristic Òfour fieldsÓ approach, making it an interdisciplinary field of research and teaching. The effect of culture on human evolutionary changes has been of particular interest. The study of Altered States of Consciousness (Trance) has also benefited form this interdisciplinary approach. At present there are divergencies between those scholars who hold to a scientific, generalizing, universalist approach and those who consider cultural anthropology to be a hermeneutic or interpretive discipline and who tend toward a radical (epistemological) relativism. Such a division is however neither unique to American anthropology nor even to anthropology but appears to be a general feature of the current moment in intellectual history.

Summary: The collection concentrates on three ecological areas where research was conducted: the city of Port-au-Prince and environs, the sugar plantations of the plain of LŽogane, and the mountainous area of Furcy, where corn and coffee are the principal crops. These three sites differ with regard to topography, climate, crops, economic activities, social organization, religion, architecture and more. In addition, photographs are included of various sites visited during a road trip from Port-au-Prince: first west to Mirago‰ne then south over the watershed to Les Cayes on the south coast. The photographs are supplemented by a series of commentaries, four dealing with geographic locations, the others with topics drawing from information from several sites. Some later developments are noted parenthetically.

Summary: This is an interview
with Erika Bourguignon, who has been a presence in the anthropology of
consciousness for decades. Her work has examined possession, altered states of
consciousness, religion, psychological anthropology, and shamanism. Her own
fieldwork in Haiti has been augmented by book-length comparative work with
Lenora Greenbaum as well. In a 1996 article in Ethos, Melford Spiro notes that
Bourguignon is a scholar who has resisted the trends of "postmodernists
and interpretivists" and he describes her as "a preeminent
psychological anthropologist as well as the premier anthropological authority
on trance, possession, and altered states of consciousness."

Summary: This dissertation
examines the life and writings of cultural anthropologist Erika Bourguignon
relating to altered states of consciousness and possession trance states. Her
unique body of work on this topic is widely quoted in the psychological
literature in reference to dissociational states. A brief review of the
literature on altered states of consciousness prior to Bourguignon's work
establishes the conceptual framework that existed when she began her task.
Following this, a review of her writings relating to possession, trance,
altered states and dissociative phenomena is undertaken. Primary sources used
for this study included Bourguignon's books and articles published from 1954
until the present. The other primary source of information was Dr. Bourguignon
herself who graciously communicated with me over a period of several months.
Secondary sources of information regarding Vienna at the time of the Anschluss
were obtained from general reading on that topic. Supplementary reading on
Austrian history, the holocaust and the Jewish exile experience served to
enhance the backdrop to Bourguignon's life. Additional secondary sources were
obtained from the archives at Ohio State University and provided a chronicle of
Dr. Bourguignon's career at that institution from Instructor in 1947 to
Professor Emeritus in the Department of Anthropology in 1999.
