Journal Article
\Precious Beyond the Power of Money to Buy\: John P. Harrington's Fieldwork with Rosario Cooper
1991
Overview
During the years 1912-17, John P. Harrington spent a total of approximately six to seven weeks doing intensive fieldwork with the last speaker of Obispeño Chumash, Mrs. Rosario Cooper of Arroyo Grande, California. In this early work we have a microcosm of the means and methods that Harrington employed throughout his long career. Using the official correspondence between Harrington and F. W. Hodge of the Bureau of American Ethnology and Harrington's notes from his field sessions with Mrs. Cooper, I reconstruct some of their working conditions and the relationship between Harrington and Mrs. Cooper, as well as offer a verbal sketch of Mrs. Cooper herself.
