	Taylor & Francis Journals: Welcome
		History and Anthropology continues to address the intersection of history and social sciences, focusing on the interchange between anthropologically-informed history, historically-informed anthropology and the history of ethnographic and anthropological representation.
		History and Anthropology publishes articles which develop these concerns, and is particularly interested in linking new substantive analyses with critical perspectives on anthropological discourse.
		All papers should be aimed at the wider group of those interested in anthropology, history and discourse, rather than sub-disciplinary traditions; articles concerned with particular geographic regions or debates should therefore not presume prior knowledge of the area.

		Traditions of jurisprudence, history, philology and sociology developed during this time and informed the development of the social sciences of which anthropology was a part.
		Anthropology grew increasingly distinct from natural history and by the end of the nineteenth century the discipline began to crystallize into its modern form - by 1935, for example, it was possible for T.K. Penniman to write a history of the discipline entitled A Hundred Years of Anthropology.
		Anthropology thus transcends the divisions between the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities to explore the biological, linguistic, material, and symbolic dimensions of humankind in all forms.

		Anthropology is traditionally distinguished from other disciplines by its emphasis on cultural relativity, in-depth examination of context, and cross-cultural comparisons.
		Anthropology has been characterized as "the most scientific of the humanities, and the most humanistic of the sciences." Contemporary anthropologists claim a number of earlier thinkers as their forebears, and the discipline has several sources; Claude LÃ©vi-Strauss, for example, claimed Montaigne and Rousseau as important influences.
		Institutionally, anthropology emerged from the development of natural history (expounded by authors such as Buffon) that occurred during the European colonization of the 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th centuries.

		Life history scholars such as Linde (1993) have observed that, as a genre, the life history/story is not universal, that is, it is not a genre that is found in all cultures.
		Coherence is one important issue in the analysis of the life history, and typically the analyst is faced with the problem of identifying the nature of "correspondence" that exists between a sequence of real events and their ordering in life history narrative accounts.

		The apparent outdatedness of ethnographic image elicitation techniques combines with the spectacularism of the contemporary post-modern cult of the autonomous image to drive students of visual anthropology either into straightforward illustrationism or, in the more creative cases, into projects involving digital manipulation as means of allowing images to speak of hypothetical situations (5).
		Although an element of the photographic module of the Visual Anthropology third year course at Kent is camera and darkroom techniques, the main focus of the course is on thinking the role of the image in ethnographic fieldwork.
		It is hoped that in setting forth an agenda for the photographic image in anthropology I will be able to provoke discussion of whether or not video or filmic imagings are as well capable of eliciting as well as presenting knowledge of what passes before the lens.

	UNC Anthropology - History
		Generally there are two kinds of institutional history - a digestible type easy to use and a comprehensive type faithful to past contexts and practices.
		The first kind of history tends to distort past events by interpreting them through the purposeful lens of the present, while the second kind of history tends to exhaust the non-specialist unfamiliar with a past period and its events.
		The subsequent development of anthropology at UNC-CH largely parallels the growth of the discipline elsewhere in North America, as the specialty expanded after the Second World War.
