New Zealander frontier man and a major representative of salvage ethnography, he wrote extensively on all sorts of cultural matters, but his main interest was the religion and spirituality of "the old time Maori", which impregnated, so he believed, their existence. Under the influence of diverging 19th century anthropological schools, from sociocultural evolutionism to comparative mythology, his work is unique and calls for a historicist exegesis in order to understand the intellectual dimensions of his descriptive endeavours. But the current dimensions of the archive and the burning polemics around Best’s ethnography, namely in New Zealand and among the Maori scholarly community, are highlighted as well in this ’Carnet de Bérose’. If one can hardly doubt the honesty of his approach, the attachment he felt to the old Maori sages, and his admiration for their knowledge and wisdom, it is undeniable that their relationship was subverted or made ambiguous by a profoundly asymmetric colonial situation. Indeed, the history of anthropology is far from being but a backward-looking discipline. Historical frames and today’s controversies get intertwined in this study on a figure who may well become a reference not to be missed for other reasons than the gift debate and the Maori concept of hau. As Herbert Lewis writes in the preface : "The history of our discipline and our turbulent relationship with the archive should be deeply affected by Frederico D. Rosa’s reflections on the legacy of Elsdon Best, an immemorial ethnographer."Laboratoire d'anthropologie et d'histoire de l'institution de la culture (Lahic) | DPRPS-Direction générale des patrimoinesCentro em Rede de Investigação em Antropologia (CRIA - NOVA FCSH)RUNRosa, Frederico Delgado2019-03-26T23:27:14Z20182018-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/book200application/pdfhttp://www.berose.fr/IMG/pdf/carnet_berose_9.pdffra978-2-11-152027-1PURE: 12318913http://www.berose.fr/IMG/pdf/carnet_berose_9.pdfinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T04:30:41Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/64686Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:34:10.060424Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
