Jean Rouch and Anthropology: A Conversation with Paul Stoller
In this episode, we discuss the ethnological and cinematic work of the great French filmmaker Jean Rouch, whose long career in West Africa spanned from the early 1940s to 2004. My guest is Paul Stoller, who is himself a prominent anthropologist with an extensive experience in West Africa - and who had personally met Jean Rouch both in West Africa and in France. We focus on Dr. Stoller's 1992 book The Cinematic Griot: The Ethnography of Jean Rouch, which was published by the University of Chicago Press, and we talk more broadly about why Rouch remains so relevant today.
