Talk:Ernest Gellner

message: I put the clean up tag on this because I think it could do with some work. I'm going to be adding to it over the next week or so. I've rewritten the intro, added a pic, and have started to add his complete bibliography, although it's so long, I'm wondering if I should only select from it. Will keep working on it as time permits. SlimVirgin 04:55, Jan 11, 2005 (UTC)
Any criticism against Gellner is missing completely. His daughter's 'revelations' have nothing to do with the acclaimed 'critics' (presumably critics of his academic work). Negative traits of his personality should be treated differently and called such, rather than being misidentified as 'criticism'. I propose to delete these sentences about his personality and, instead, add a full paragraph summarising the criticism of his academic work by other scholars.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.170.235.74 (talk) 12:19, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Added book in bibliography 

message: It was in the 60s that Gellner discovered his great love of social anthropology.
That's a quite extraordinary assertion, and requires citation. From memory he tracedhis his career choice for social anthropology, he dates his interest in the social anthropology of the Islamic world to around 1953, since at that date he perceived that understanding the functional ndynamics of the Arab world would be a critical necessity for the future.Nishidani (talk) 19:26, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
