SUMMARY:Feminine distress: reconfiguring insides and outsides on Guyana’s Indigenous frontier, Charlotte Hoskins (Univ. of Oxford, School of Anthropology & Museum Ethnography/LAS)
LOCATION:Lesc – salle 308F (3e étage) - 21\, allée de l’Université\, Nanterre\, \, 9
 2000\, France
DESCRIPTION:This paper considers the phenomenon of ‘fits’ afflicting primarily indigeno
 us schoolgirls in Guyana’s state-run secondary school dormitories. These ep
 isodes correspond to cycles of attacks, in which spirits possess the bodies
  of young women, prompting them to move, speak, and behave in distressing w
 ays. The possessed are left with no memory of the occurrence. By contributi
 ng ethnographic material derived from everyday Makushi life, this paper ext
 ends the literature on the body’s chronic instability and critically engage
 s with socio-spatial analogies that have placed femininity and masculinity 
 in correspondence to positions of ‘inside’ and ‘outside’. I suggest a dynam
 ic reconfiguration of these positions with consequences for notions of terr
 itory. Still, I refrain from explaining these ‘fits’, first dwelling on the
  affects of uncertainty that they express and produce as bodies on the cusp
  of unresolved tensions.\nLa présentation sera en anglais. \nIllustration :
