In this conversation, the author"s goal is to discuss subjectivity/s as evolving and temporal representational emergences in ethnographic fieldwork. She uses her participation in a narrative ethnographic study of women"s experiences in Hindu arranged marriages to show how her positions traveled and constantly shifted in the years of fieldwork. Ultimately, she shifts focus to her fieldwork and explores the ways in which her co-participants shifted her selves and, in so doing, "represented" their own marital stories. As she does so, she shows herself caught between eligibilities granted to her by her participants and how these shaped what she discerned in the narratives. Her broader goal in enacting these tough yet healthy tensions is to facilitate a dialogue on how the resculpting of the ethnographer shows us the recursive relationship among subjectivity/s, representation, and interpretation.Keywords: subjectivities, Hindu women, arranged marriages, representation, reflexivity At an in-house faculty colloquium at my university in fall 2003, a scholar asked me to reflect on how Indian readers might respond to my ethnographic study of urban Indian women"s experiences in Hindu arranged marriages. He observed that I had told some "pretty intimate stories" about these women from a South Delhi Punjabi community. I was unsurprised by his question. In fact, I had fussed over such questions myself. I responded by saying that I was unsure of the response but hoped that readers would appreciate the descriptive nature of the study and my subjective interpretations. This person, an outsider to the context of my study, used the example of Black intellectual Cornel West to assert that West"s "insider" work is often criticized as a washing of the Black community"s dirty laundry in public. He suggested that an insider"s stories were more vulnerable to criticism and told me to think of how I might respond to such charges.
