Abstract

The article explores the concept of the ethnographer's archive, focusing on the personal collection of documents and materials gathered during fieldwork in Serbia. It examines how these items, which include political pamphlets, genealogy charts, and prayer poems, serve as tangible representations of social interactions and cultural memories, reflecting the complexities of Serbian identity and Orthodox Christian practices. The author emphasizes the dynamic nature of these archives, suggesting they are not merely static records but rather generative substances that reveal the historical and political contexts in which they were created. Through the analysis of specific items, the article highlights the interplay between personal narratives and broader societal changes in Serbia. [Extracted from the article]
