Obituaries Marcus Banks (1960–2020) Research Fellow 1988–95, Governing Body Fellow 1995–2021, Vicegerent 2014–16, died on 23 October 2020. University Proctor in 2007–08, he recalled his ‘year in sub fusc’ in the Record for 2007–08. This obituary is by Richard Vokes, Associate Professor in Anthropology at the University of Western Australia. Photo: Wolfson College The anthropologist Marcus Banks transformed our understanding of the possibilities for cultural representation through visual media. He also played an influential role in the wider transformation of anthropology, from a discipline once framed as a study of ‘exotic’ faraway peoples, towards one primarily concerned with the politics of social and cultural difference in the world around us. Born in Liverpool in a working-class household, where he attended New Heys Comprehensive School, Marcus went up to Christ’s College, Cambridge, in 1978 to read Social Anthropology. Having taken a First, he stayed on for a PhD with Caroline Humphrey and Deborah Swallow, completing his thesis in 1985. Even at that stage, Marcus’ work was breaking new ground, his doctorate being a study of Jainism in both Jamnagar, Gujarat, and Leicester, UK. At a time when anthropology was still generally equating cultures with singular places, his study – published in 1992 as Organizing Jainism in India and England (OUP) – was an exemplar for understanding how cultural forms may be also extended and transformed across transnational fields. Methodologically, the study was an early example of what came to known as ‘multi-sited ethnography’, and – in its focus upon Leicester – of ‘anthropology at home’. However, it was at Oxford that Marcus was to make his greatest contribution. After his appointment as a ‘Demonstrator’ at the Institute of Social and Cultural Anthropology (ISCA) in 1987, he remained at that university for the rest of his life, later being promoted to Professor (2001) and Director of the School of Anthropology and Museum Ethnography (2012–16).
