Great point. I think in the humanities scholars get stuck between a rock and a hard place (as we Theatre Studies folks know all too well) in that we’d love to adopt concrete methodologies from other disciplines, but those disciplines want nothing to do with anything that doesn’t fit inside their model. I guess we’re left creating our own methodologies and waiting for everyone else to realize we were right all along 😉

The humanities are incubators for exploring the significance of such subjective accounts but something strikes me about the fluctuating way we present them. When should we decide what viewpoint — be it anthropology, psychology, etc — to take? Irving’s account is detailed and fascinating, but does his decision to negate concrete methodological frameworks weaken his position?
