Corsican Fragments

The island of Corsica has long been a popular destination for travelers in search of the European exotic, but it has also been a focus of French concerns about national unity and identity. Today, Corsica is part of a vibrant Franco-Mediterranean social universe. In this ethnographic study of a Corsican village, Matei Candea explores nationalism, language, kinship, and place. He traces ideas about inclusion and exclusion through these different realms, as Corsicans, `Continentals`, tourists, and the anthropologist make and unmake connections with one another in their everyday encounters. Candea`s evocative and gracefully written account provides new insights into the dilemmas of understanding cultural difference and the difficulties and rewards of fieldwork.
