1938: (Harkening Back to Price-Mars: Comhaire-Sylvain Harkening Back to Price-Mars’s Invitation in Ainsi Parla l’Oncle to Seriously Engage an Indigéniste Narrative Practice That Centered and Integrated Popular Haitian Thought into the Discipline of Traditional Ethnography, Her Journal Submission Documenting Women’s Thought and Charting Her Ethnographic Practice): Harkening back to Price-Mars’s invitation in Ainsi parla l’Oncle (So Spoke the Uncle) to seriously engage an indigéniste narrative practice that centered and integrated popular Haitian thought into the discipline of traditional ethnography, Comhaire-Sylvain’s journal submission documented women’s thought and charted her ethnographic practice. She answered Price-Mars’s call and redirected it through a feminist lens, asking what the uncle spoke, and what the aunt and the grandmother and the market woman knew.
