当民族志被用于人类学以外的领域时,小插图往往起着中心作用。然而,对小插图的方法论讨论并不是人类学的中心,因为它们的跨学科使用可能会保证。通过对学科边界的深入研究,但也许不那么严格地加以保护,人类学可以更清楚地了解它自己的核心工具——在这种情况下,就是小插曲。重新考虑这些工具与难民研究工作特别相关,这是一个内在的跨学科领域,人类学在塑造中发挥了关键作用。以难民为主题的艺术作品在这里是从元民族志的角度来考虑的,该角度关注的是一系列特定艺术作品与其内容一起产生的过程。这一分析的核心是小插图在艺术家作品展示中的作用,这使得人们能够探究小插图在人类学中作为方法和呈现的双重角色。
When ethnography is used in fields outside anthropology, vignettes often take a central role. Yet methodological discussions of the vignette are not as central to anthropology as their cross‐disciplinary use might warrant. By dwelling on, but perhaps less stringently guarding, disciplinary boundaries, anthropology can gain a clearer view of its own central tools—in this case, vignettes. Reconsidering these tools holds particular relevance for work on refugee studies, an inherently interdisciplinary field that anthropology has had a key role in shaping. Artistic works focused on refugees are considered here from a meta‐ethnographic perspective that pays attention to the processes through which a specific series of artworks were produced alongside their content. Central to this analysis is the role of the vignette in the artist's presentation of her work, which enables an inquiry into the double role of the vignette as both method and presentation in anthropology.
