Zusammenfassung: | "For the Ankave of Papua New Guinea, men, unlike women, do not reach adulthood and become fathers simply by growing up and reproducing. What fathers - and by extension, men - actually are is a result of a series of relational transformations, operated in and by rituals in which men and women both perform complementary actions in separate spaces. 'Acting for Others' is a tour de force in Melanesian ethnography, gender studies, and theories of ritual. Based on years of fieldwork conducted by the author and her husband and co-ethnographer, this book's 'double view' of the Ankave ritual cycle - from women in the village and from the men in the forest - is novel, provocative, and one of the most incisive analyses of the emergence of ideas of gender in Papua New Guinea since Marilyn Strathern's 'The Gender of the Gift'"-- |

"The Melanesian person": Debates -- Conclusion -- Glossary -- References -- Index "For the Ankave of Papua New Guinea, men, unlike women, do not reach adulthood and become fathers simply by growing up and reproducing. What fathers - and by extension, men - actually are is a result of a series of relational transformations, operated in and by rituals in which men and women both perform complementary actions in separate spaces. 'Acting for Others' is a tour de force in Melanesian ethnography, gender studies, and theories of ritual. Based on years of fieldwork conducted by the author and her husband and co-ethnographer, this book's 'double view' of the Ankave ritual cycle - from women in the village and from the men in the forest - is novel, provocative, and one of the most incisive analyses of the emergence of ideas of gender in Papua New Guinea since Marilyn Strathern's 'The Gender of the Gift'"-- Source other than Library of Congress.
