I am another cultural anthropologist who feels similarly about taking photographs in the field, and have very few of myself “doing fieldwork.” I envy those who can unselfconsciously take beautiful photographs of people. I’ve recently discovered your book and using it for my Intro to Cultural Anthropology classes, and it’s also inspiring me to do “fieldwork” in markets in the future! Thanks for posting this fieldwork photo on your blog.

Hi Luis. Yes, this post was from my time at Porta Palazzo. Let me know if you are in Boston. We can meet to talk about markets. I would like to hear more about your research.

Hi, I read your book of Porta Palazzo and i have to write here that is amazing, I found it inspiring since I found it on perfect time when i was doing an ethnography about a market in México. I only want to ask you if this post is about the work field that you did in there or if you are preparing more material to another book?. I’m from México and I will look for a scholarship to study at Boston. Have a great day and thank you for your knowledge and the joy of share it to the world.

Comment on Culture and Cuisine of Québec by Alain Roy

Hello Ms Black,

I’m a reporter working for a public affairs television program focussing on food, L’épicerie translated «The grocery store»). Broadcasted on the french network of the CBC in Montreal, Radio-Canada, I used to once in a while post questions on ASFC before it was on facebook. I just registered on its new platform and came across the info on your webinar on Québec cuisine. You’re in good hands with Rémy Charest as a tour guide but if I can be of any help, I’d be mostly delighted to discuss your content with you!

Thanks for your attention and I wish you a beautiful day,

Alain Roy
