First Sentence
"ANALYSIS," WRITES CLIFFORD GEERTZ in the essay "Thick Description" that opens his celebrated book, The Interpretation of Cultures (1973), "is sorting out the structures of signification-what Ryle called established codes, a somewhat misleading expression, for it makes the enterprise sound too much like that of the cipher clerk when it is much more like that of the literary critic-and determining their social ground and import."
