| Σύνοψη: | Anthropologists and religionists, exercising their subjectivity in distinctive ways, often adopt different fieldwork methods. Their differences are apparent in diverging relationships between the roles they adopt as visiting observer and entrenched participant. While anthropological ideals present a close interplay between participation and observation, religio-historical practice often shows the two activities as at least temporally separate. Nevertheless, characteristic styles of religio-historical writing can be enhanced through judicious use of anthropologists' close field methods. A project on the ritual life of some Rajasthani householder-yogis undertaken jointly by an anthropologist and historian of religions reveals the contrasting fieldwork styles of each. |
