Extract

Far from being afield of the theme assigned to me by the editor and board of the AHY, Professor Susan Gal's erudite essay admirably complements my own efforts. By approaching the topic from the point of view of historical anthropology, she adds another dimension to the discussion of a difficult problem. Indeed, I learned a lot from her, and not only about fractals, segmentary lineage systems, nested oppositions, and recursivity, intricacies that she articulates much better than I could hope in the context of traditional historiography.
