Symbolical mobilization of “Indigenous” cultures and ritual practices in the Amazon – and the destiny of humanity.
Vis sammendrag
The paper examines how the image of the Amazonian “rainforest Indian” is mobilized in environmental discourse, popular culture, anthropology and religious studies concerning the relation between nature, culture and global warming. In the structural studies of myth of Lévi-Strauss, Amazonian cultures furnished theory with traces of purity in a “fallen” world (a move that inversed the role Amerindians had in the early modern Calvinist ethnography of J. Léry which Lévi-Strauss brought with him into the “field”), and with localized examples of how humans build cosmologies upon a basic distinction between nature and culture. In some environmental discourse rainforest Indians are assigned the role of local forest keepers for global humanity. Here then it is the global human survival and future that is at issue, not the manner in which pan-human traits can be identified in “isolated” spaces. The paper explores a set of topoi and symbols that moves between the mentioned discourses; how popular culture mediates between these discourses and calibrate a set of religious and anthropological categories (the indigenous, shamanism), and in doing this create a political space where the global effectiveness of local, rainforest politics – still –appears to restrict Amerindians to local spaces and cultural figures/categories associated with them. Finally, this political and symbolic predicament is used in a reflection upon recent scholarly denunciations of categories (e.g. “shamanism”, the “indigenous”) in religious studies.

This Collection aims to develop contemporary knowledge translation (KT) in medicine by challenging it with current cultural and humanistic theories of translation. In the process of doing this, however, we will also challenge theories of translation within the humanities by juxtaposing them with the scientific practice of KT. Different notions of “translation” have become increasingly important in the contemporary natural and human sciences. The turn to translation can be traced across a number of human sciences, such as cultural studies, anthropology and science and technology studies (STS). Translation has lately also become institutionalized in the field of medicine, leading to the development of so-called knowledge translation and ‘translational research’. These concepts refer to a set of research activities bound together by the common goal of “bridging the gap” between science in laboratories and clinical application – and more generally, putting research-based knowledge into practice. While translation in the human sciences has emerged as a key theoretical concept, and could be seen as an index of current epistemological predicaments and the almost obligatory requirement to cross-disciplinary and cultural boundaries in a “global age”, its materialization in medical discourse is of an entirely different nature. KT denotes a scientific and purportedly non-cultural practice that defines social and cultural difference as a “barrier” to the transmission of the logos of medical science. The aim of KT is to bring “pure” scientific knowledge from “bench to bedside” by testing its validity in clinical practice – while at the same time keeping the scientific knowledge intact throughout the process of translation across various social fields and sectors of the healthcare system across the globe. However, KT implies little theoretical reflection over translation as a process of meaning production. — show all

Translating Tlaloc, Accommodating Vico. Lorenzo Boturini and the Semiotic Character of Cultural Otherness. A Study in the History and Theory of Cultural Translation.

Vis sammendrag
The topic is the translation of ethnographic knowledge and conceptual schemes from Mexican missionary ethnography to the emergent field of cultural investigation in the eighteenth century. To investigate this, an extended case history, that of Lorenzo Boturini, a Milanese who published a “New idea” of Mesoamerican history in Madrid in 1746, is analysed.
Idea was the first attempt to apply Vico’s New Science [NS] – a work that now belongs to the canon of the human sciences – to a local “culture”. Vico has “traditionally” been seen as the “father” of the concept of culture, while salient voices in a post-structuralist tradition have regarded hims as the first exponent of a semiotic view of culture. Furthermore, “modern” cultural investigation has used the opposition between orality and writing to construct its objects: “oral tradition became the foundation of a poetics of Otherness, a means of identifying the premodern Others both within modern society (uneducated, rural, poor, female) and outside it (savage, primitive, “pre-literate”) (Bauman and Briggs 2003: 14). In the case of Boturini and Vico, hieroglyphs and images play a central role in forging the boundaries between the “self” and “other”.
The dissertation
(i) analyzes Boturini’s use of Vico’s work as a “translation instrument” in the attempt to write a history of a “cultural other” based upon fables and pictographic writing. How does Boturini use the NS to construct a textual “place” for Mesoamerican “culture”?
(ii) focuses upon how semiotic forms like hieroglyphs mediate in the translation between cultures. Boturini’s “recognition” of Mesoamerican script has been praised: Was this an “effect” of Vico’s semiotic theory of culture, or did the two share a “semiotic culture” that has been “forgotten”?
(iii) examines how the Spanish “target culture” received Boturini’s work.
By tackling these issues, the issue of how “cultures” were translated before the term came into general use’ to interpret human difference and sameness is approached.
