In my day in the field, I will write from the perspective of the person who films Professor Chagnon, as well as photos while he does his research on the Yanomamo. I am a resentful male graduate with a major in filmmaking and a minor in anthropology who helps Professor Chagnon in his studies. For this trip we will focus on the Yanomami war and violence within the village to better understand their culture and why they resort to raids and violence. It will take place in the spring and we will discuss mainly with men.B. SourcesChagnon, N.A. (1968). Yanomamo: the ferocious people. New York: Holt, Rinehart and Winston.C.

It is nine in the morning, Professor Chagnon informs me of the information and data we hope to collect today, the three main forms of violence that accumulate inside and outside each village, “beatings on the chest, slaps and fights” (Chagnon, 118 ) Professor Chagnon orders me to follow him with my camera and film equipment. The Professor pauses as he watches the two men punch each other's chests, I begin to prepare my camera to take a photo when a friend of Professor Chagnon's approaches to say hello. Professor Chagnon greets his friend and introduces me, Professor Chagnon like his friends what... .... middle of paper ......en a person enters a society different from his own. This is demonstrated by the narrator who, although he understands the Yanomamo way of life, reveals moments of discomfort with the way society works. Cultural relativism: putting aside any judgments or beliefs against a culture other than one's own. In the narrator's experience he is able to collect his thoughts and understand that their way of life is different from his and that he does not have to judge them to truly understand them. Exchange: exchanging goods between two people, both were advantages. However, although the narrator had not seen and traded, he still heard about one of Professor Chagnon's experiences with someone who wanted to trade his knife with him. Works Cited Chagnon, N.A.
