ISBN: 9780415195768 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. How do we become who we are? How is it that people are so similar in the ways they differ from one another, and so different in the ways they are the same?
Christina Toren's theory of mind as not only a physical phenomenon, but an historical one, sets out to answer these questions by examining how the material world of objects and other people informs the constitution of mind in persons over time. This theory of embodied mind as a microhistorical process is set out in the first chapter, providing a context for the nine papers that follow. Questions explored include the way...

The Challenge of Epistemology: Anthropological Perspectives
ISBN: 9780857454355 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Epistemology poses particular problems for anthropologists whose task it is to understand manifold ways of being human.

Mind, Materiality and History : Explorations in Fijian Ethnography
ISBN: 9780415195775 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. How do we each become who we are? How is it that we are so different from one another in the ways we are the same? And so similar in the ways we are different? The answers to these puzzles lie in the manifold ways that the material world of objects and other people informs the process of our becoming ourselves. A process whereby it becomes clear that mind is THE fundamental historical phenomenon. The outcome of over a decade's work, the underlying concern of these various explorations into how Fijians live their lives and, in so doing, constitute their knowledge of the world, has been to...

The ethnographic focus is on transformation and continuity over time in Fiji, Tonga, and Samoa with the addition of...
