- W2063330121 abstract "In literary studies, the idea of culture is everywhere invoked but rarely explained. Why? Because universal explanations of culture remain universally maligned. The tacit assumption behind this culture of repudiation is that culture is above all a historical exercise in ethical differentiation. Because universal explanations of culture seem to uphold historical sameness rather than historical difference, they are felt to run counter to the ethical goal of promoting and defending those differences. But what exactly does culture differentiate itself from? This essay provides a minimal anthropological answer. After briefly discussing the significance of the anthropological turn in literary studies represented by Stephen Greenblatt's appropriation of Clifford Geertz's ethnography of the cultural other, I suggest that the fundamental difference of culture, which is also an anthropological difference between the human and the nonhuman, is the originary difference between symbolic and indexical representation. The point of formulating such an anthropological hypothesis is not to reject the idea of historical change implicit in standard literary approaches to cultural differentiation (for example, in the usual practice of dividing literary history into distinct aesthetic periods). On the contrary, the hypothesis provides the minimal anthropological context by which to understand what we mean by literary and cultural history, and why it matters that we continue to study it." @default.
