Friendship

More about the book

Exploring the multifaceted nature of friendship, Michael Jackson weaves together philosophy, biography, and ethnography. He begins with classical perspectives from Aristotle and Montaigne, then delves into the political and personal dimensions of friendship through the works of Hannah Arendt and the stories of Kuranko storyteller Keti Ferenke Koroma. Jackson reflects on various forms of friendship, including those from childhood and with animals, while addressing the complexities faced by anthropologists in balancing egalitarian ideals with inherent power dynamics in fieldwork.
