Abstract

Writing a review of the cultural anthropology of time is something like reading Borges's (19a) Book of Sand: as one opens this book, pages keep growing from it-it has no beginning or end. Borges's book could be taken as the spa ce of time: A page once seen is never seen again, and the book's harried possessors keep trying to escape its monstrous self-production by surrepti­ tiously selling or losing it. The diffuse, endlessly multiplying studies of sociocultural time reflect time's pervasiveness as an inescapable dimension of all aspects of social experience and practice. This apparently infinite complexity (1:200) seems

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
