One basic feature of anthropological fieldwork tradition has been the engagement in the study of ‘other culture’. The change of this engagement with anthropologists’ ‘coming home’ entails some reorientation of methodological issues. An anthropologist who is generally an outsider and has limited time at his disposal to conduct field work and study a particular culture, can make use of a method as an additive tool for gathering information and its interpretation which we call ‘Autographic’ simultaneously by using other conventional techniques of data collection. Autography is different from autobiography or reflexive ethnography. Here, the literate informant who is also an insider of the community under study writes on a topic himself. Then a formally negotiated text emerges. In the present paper the potential of application of this method in anthropology has been discussed with the discursive critique which it invites automatically.
