Bøger af Tim Ingold

In this passionately argued book, Ingold relates how a field of study once committed to ideals of progress collapsed amidst the ruins of war and colonialism, only to be reborn as a discipline of hope, destined to take centre stage in debating the most pressing issues of our time.

Takes a fresh approach to the study of four related disciplines: anthropology, archaeology, art and architecture. This title argues that these four disciplines are concerned with exploring, interpreting and describing the worlds we inhabit and the ways we perceive them.

In its 2022 annual publication "A Sense of Relatedness", Kunstraum Lakeside investigates an array of different types of relationships: The focus is connecting lines, entanglements, assemblages, networks, or kinships and their underlying mechanisms; it explores encounters between the human and nonhuman, between the material and immaterial, between the organic and technical, and, last but not least, between places and times. In the annual program "A Sense of Relatedness", Kunstraum Lakeside traced the ubiquitous longing for a sense of clarity, comprehensible entities, and predictable outcomes, and contrasted it with images that accommodate the incomplete, diverse, and volatile-they are not images of the either-or but of the as-well-as.

"A renowned anthropologist's profound and personal correspondences with the world we live in"--

This book examines evolution being handled in anthropology from the mid-nineteenth century to the present.

In this book, drawing on ethnographic material from North America and Eurasia, Tim Ingold explains the causes and mechanisms of transformations between hunting, pastoralism and ranching, each based on the same animal in the same environment, and each viewed in terms of a particular conjunction of social and ecological relations of production.

What do walking, weaving, observing, storytelling, singing, drawing and writing have in common? The answer is that they all proceed along lines. In this extraordinary book Tim Ingold imagines a world in which everyone and everything consists of interwoven or interconnected lines and lays the foundations for a completely new discipline: the anthropological archaeology of the line. Ingold''s argument leads us through the music of Ancient Greece and contemporary Japan, Siberian labyrinths and Roman roads, Chinese calligraphy and the printed alphabet, weaving a path between antiquity and the present. Drawing on a multitude of disciplines including archaeology, classical studies, art history, linguistics, psychology, musicology, philosophy and many others, and including more than seventy illustrations, this book takes us on an exhilarating intellectual journey that will change the way we look at the world and how we go about in it. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new preface by the author.

On the conclusion of the Second World War, Finland was obliged to cede its northeasternmost territory of Petsamo to the Soviet Union. The contemporary organization of the consequently resettled Skolt Lapp community in the larger of the resultant 'reservations', the Sevettijarvi area, is the subject of this 1976 study.
