About the book >.>.> Encouraging more personalized writing of fieldwork is not the purpose of the book. Whether or not we choose to write about our self and our emotional experiences is not my primary concern (although I do explore the writing of the self’ specifically in Chapters 7 and 8). What is central to the book is the recognition that fieldwork is personal emotional and identity work. The construction and production of self and identity occurs both during and after fieldwork. In writing remembering and representing our fieldwork experiences we are involved in processes of self presentation and identity construction. In considering and exploring the intimate relations between the field significant others and the private self we are able to understand the processes of fieldwork as practical intellectual and emotional accomplishments.
