 For nearly four decades, Ian Keen has been an important, challenging, and engaging presence in Australian anthropology. Beginning with his PhD research in the mid-1970s and through to the present, he has been a leading scholar of Yolngu society and culture, and has made lasting contributions to a range of debates. His scholarly productivity, however, has never been limited to the Yolngu, and he has conducted research and published widely on many other facets of Australian Aboriginal society: on Aboriginal culture in 'settled' Australia
  comparative historical work on Aboriginal societies at the threshold of colonisation
  a continuing interest in kinship
  ongoing writing on language and society
  and a set of significant land claims across the continent. In this volume of essays in his honour, a group of Keen's former students and current colleagues celebrate the diversity of his scholarly interests and his inspiring influence as a mentor and a friend, with contributions ranging across language structure, meaning, and use
  the post-colonial engagement of Aboriginal Australians with the ideas and structures of 'mainstream' society
  ambiguity and indeterminacy in Aboriginal symbolic systems and ritual practices
  and many other interconnected themes, each of which represents a string that he has woven into the rich tapestry of his scholarly work.
