Ruin Memories: Materialities, Aesthetics and the Archaeology of the Recent Past
ISBN: 9780415523622 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 510 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Since the 19th century, mass-production, consumerism & cycles of material replacement have accelerated; increasingly larger amounts of things are increasingly rapidly victimized & made redundant. At the same time processes of destruction have immensely intensified, although largely overlooked when compared to the research & social significance devoted to consumption & production. The outcome is a ruin landscape of derelict factories, closed shopping malls, overgrown bunkers & redundant mining towns; a ghostly world of decaying modern debris normally left out of academic concerns &...

Archaeology: The Discipline of Things
ISBN: 9780520274167 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 266 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Archaeology has always been marked by its particular care, obligation, and loyalty to things. While archaeologists may not share similar perspectives or practices, they find common ground in their concern for objects monumental and mundane. This book considers the myriad ways that archaeologists engage with things in order to craft stories, both big and small, concerning our relations with materials and the nature of the past. Literally the "science of old things," archaeology does not discover the past as it was but must work with what remains. Such work involves the tangible mediation...

In Defense of Things: Archaeology and the Ontology of Objects
ISBN: 9780759119314 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In much recent thinking, social and cultural realms are thought of as existing prior to--or detached from--things, materiality, and landscape. It is often assumed, for example, that things are entirely 'constructed' by social or cultural perceptions and have no existence in and of themselves. Bjornar Olsen takes a different position. Drawing on a range of theories, especially phenomenology and actor-network-theory, Olsen claims that human life is fully mixed up with things and that humanity and human history emerge from such relationships. Things, moreover, possess unique qualities that are...

Hunters in Transition: An Outline of Early Sámi History
ISBN: 9789004252547 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Hunters in Transition provides a new outline of the early history of the Sami, the indigenous population of northernmost Europe. Discussing crucial issues such as the formation of Sami ethnicity, interaction with chieftain and state societies, and the transition from hunting to reindeer herding, the book departs from the common trope whereby native encounters with other cultures, state societies, and "modernity," are depicted mainly in negative terms. Far from always victimizing "the other," the interaction with outside societies played a crucial role in generating and maintaining a...
