Abstract

This paper will not focus on the transformation of subjects and the making of fetishes in migratory experiences of young Nigerian Women: or, put differently, I am not interested here to present in a coherent manner my main fi eldwork in the last years (the Nigerian diaspora in Italy). Instead, my aim is to explore in which way anthropological discourse need to construct an intelligible and plain cultural object starting from such fragments of lives, to assert a (pseudo)paradigm useful for an selfreferring analysis. If biographies are the manifestation of fi lthy scene and imbricated times, I wonder how researchers can write on mud and dirt, against any temptation of pureness.
