      The annual provides an outlet for histories of anthropology written for anthropologists. This year's volume asserts the indivisibility of local knowledge and global context in anthropology, understanding the global stage in terms of the particularities of the many cultures and societies that constitute it an any given moment. Nine essays explore such topics as dead and living authorities in The Legend of Perseus: animism and Christianity in the evolutionist archive, anthropology in Portugal: the case of the Portuguese Society of Anthropology and Ethnology in 1918, the saga of the L. H. Morgan Archive: how an American Marxist helped make a bourgeois anthropologist the cornerstone of Soviet ethnography, and a first glance into the treasure chest of Franz Boas' shorthand field notes.
