Abstract

The article delves into the intersection of anthropology and literature, emphasizing how recent theoretical work has enriched the dialogue between these fields by exploring themes such as art, religion, subjectivity, and ethics, while also addressing methodological concerns. It highlights a series of conversations between fiction writer Siddratul Muntaha Jillani and anthropologist Kiran Nazir Ahmed, focusing on the parallels and contrasts between fiction writing and ethnographic writing.
