Description
Summary:In this response to the symposium on Awkward Rituals, Logan responds to questions such as “do her subjects know that they are awkward?” “are awkward rituals effective?” “is this a theoretical or a historical intervention?” and “what is the role of American exceptionalism in this argument?” In response to these questions the author looks towards a future of ritual studies in which we might take seriously the limits of a scholars’ temporal and geographical boundaries while also building new genealogies of ritual as a category of analysis and practice grounded in historical exchanges.
