Abstract Cora Du Bois (1903–1991) achieved distinction in anthropology and the U.S. government—including leadership roles in the Office of Strategic Services and the State Department, a professorship at Harvard, and the presidency of the American Anthropological Association. Her contemporary, Henrietta Schmerler (1908–1931), suffered rape and murder while conducting her first summer of ethnographic fieldwork. Despite these stark differences, when taken together, Schmerler’s and Du Bois’s careers and reputations shed light on sexism and homophobia in and around the discipline, changing approaches to fieldwork and cultural analysis, and the political and public contexts of American anthropology in the mid-20th century.

科拉·杜波依斯(Cora Du Bois),亨丽埃塔·施默勒(Henrietta Schmerler)和妇女在20世纪中叶的人类学中的作用

摘要科拉·杜波依斯(Cora Du Bois,1903-1991年)在人类学和美国政府方面脱颖而出,包括在战略服务办公室和国务院的领导职务,哈佛大学的教授职位以及美国人类学协会的主席。她的当代人亨利埃塔·施默勒(Henrietta Schmerler,1908–1931年)在进行她的民族志田野调查的第一个夏天时遭到强奸和谋杀。尽管存在这些明显的差异,但如果将两者结合在一起,Schmerler和Du Bois的职业和声誉就可以揭示该学科内外的性别歧视和同性恋恐惧症,田野调查和文化分析的方法变化以及20世纪中期美国人类学的政治和公共背景世纪。
