PUCUSI, Rodolfo. Some methodological and epistemological considerations on the role of embodiment in the production of ethnographic knowledge and status attributed to the bodily senses. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2014, n.19, pp.95-119. ISSN 1900-5407.

This paper aims to reassess the role of embodiment in the construction of ethnographic knowledge. To this end, it illustrates the impact that the researcher's performance of diverse Sai Baba rituals had on his understanding of Argentinian Sai Baba groups. The article also reflects on the role attributed to the different senses in this production as well as their epistemological implications, and establishes a dialogue between different philosophies of thought on the issue.

Palabras clave : Body; ethnography; senses; Sai Baba; philosophy.
