An actual lecture by Erving Goffman himself!

#sociology #ErvingGoffman
The only known recording of Erving Goffman. Lecture at PSA about fieldwork. Interesting, funny and lively reflections from a sociological legend! I couldn't contain my joy when I found the original recording. I hope it makes someone as happy as it did me! Enjoy!

“The #sociologist #ErvingGoffman recognised that #social #interaction is a kind of performance in which we occupy various roles. When a #performance fails, the actor feels discredited – to use Goffman’s term, he loses ‘face’.” aeon.co/essays/we-sh...
