SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"From its birth as an amateur hobby, through its inception into professional academia and to the present time, anthropologists have asserted that the primary subject matter of its attention is fast disappearing. The concept of the "disappearing savage," it is suggested here, has provided both a rationale for the existence of social and cultural anthropology as well as a ruse or mirror for our own sense of modernity.
