"Deep Play: Notes On The Balinese Cockfight"
Part 1 of Paper ....nese culture - the cockfight. This fight represents more than it first
appears. Cockfights are well attended events by men only. Bets are taken
on these events. However, the money isn't all that is at stake. It's
significance to kin, masculinity and other such items is another point
Geertz expresses. Percy writes.... Part 2 of Paper ....ckfight like any "layman" might see it. This way of
not interacting and seeing things from a spectators point of view, is in a
way using ethnocentrism. This means he isn't really seeing the culture as
it is. From this view point the things which take place may even look
stupid. So, things like the cockfights can be seen only as wrong. At best,
their belief toward the cockfight is a distorted belief; at worst, it is an
outright falsehood. This is something a "common reader" may exp erience.
