This is no flame. If you don't want to read my analysis of the
work of Clifford Geertz, just hit the delete button.
My analysis of his work will include Clifford Geertz in the
subject header, as I assume the responses thereof. I'm sure
even if you were to join the discussion you would live through
the experience, as well as learn something concerning theory,
methodology, postmodernist critique, and the freedom that internet
will give humankind to question the status quo, canon, and
consequences of fashionable nonsence in anthropology.
