Book Description
Excerpt from The Ethnological Journal, Vol. 1: A Monthly Record of Ethnological Research and Criticism; July, 1865 We have entered upon this criticism with anything but pleasure. But Dr. Hunt has compelled ethnologists to act on the defensive. Hitherto, indeed, they have been singularly apathetic in the matter, doubtless expecting that such extravagances must necessarily defeat their own object; but under cover of this passiveness the public are gradually becoming familiarized with these pretensions, and gradually taught to consider ethnology as a narrow and sectional pursuit, a mere department of the great science of anthropology, while its students are represented as factiously opposed to the just claims of the new science, and especially to its recognition in the British Association, by a distinct section or subsection. Under circumstances like these, it is plain that, however anxious we may be to avoid antagonisms of all kinds, our position as journalists does not permit us to ignore these facts. It is the obvious duty of an ethnological journal to defend ethnology against unjust charges, to disseminate correct views Of its nature and aims, and to chronicle and criticize current events, when they happen to bear upon it; nor can it rationally or safely leave the public to mistake the true character of its own labours, or, recognising them, to regard its title as a misnomer. But, so far from having any objection to a spirited and honourable rivalry between scientific bodies or scientific publications, we think, on the contrary, that such a rivalry may be made conducive to the best interests of science, and even a personal advantage to those engaged in it, and we Shall heartily rejoice if all unseemly discords can be laid aside amongst us, while each main tains his own rights without encroaching on those of others.
