Ritual Criticism And Reflexivity In Fieldwork
One view of ritual is that it is pre-critical, if not pre-rational, thus implying that criticism has no place in the inner circle of ritual enactment.

| 520 | |a One view of ritual is that it is pre-critical, if not pre-rational, thus implying that criticism has no place in the inner circle of ritual enactment. To the contrary, I argue that ritual traditions typically involve the exercise of critical judgment, and therefore there is little point in scholars avoiding it.

My aim is to reflect on some of the problems of engaging in criticism outside the context of one's own traditions. To this end I use a specific example, that of a classical Indian dance performance, and subject it to criticism in order to formulate and refine the critic's task. | ||
