Ženski identitet u Orubici
Female Identity in Orubica

Summary/Abstract: Ethnography often deals with identity, a double defined term - identity is always connected with Otherness. But this is not the problem only on the level of analysis, there is also a problem of writing, rewriting and representation of culture. Ethnographer must be conscious that he/she is a part of his/her own social epistemology in which used cultural terms have their history, tradition and above all axiomatic nature. Ethnology often reinforces this social epistemology through the way of writing about unfamiliar (geographical, social or historical) groups and their cultures. The author also found himself entangled in different social and ethnographical prejudice on the position of women in pre-WWII peasant society which was broken through his field work in Slavonian village of Orubica.
