Violence and the Sacred in the Ancient Near East: Girardian Conversations at Çatalhöyük
ISBN: 9781108476027 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume brings together two groups engaged with understanding the relationships between religion and violence. The first group consists of scholars of the mimetic theory of Rene Girard, for whom human violence is rooted in the rivalry that stems from imitation. To manage this violence of all against all, humans often turn to violence against one, the scapegoat, thereafter incorporated into ritual. The second group consists of archaeologists working at the Neolithic sites of Catalhoeyuk and Goebekli Tepe in Turkey. At both sites there is evidence of religious practices that center on wild...

The Domestication of Europe
ISBN: 9780631177692 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Neolithic saw the spread of the first farmers, and the formation of settled villages throughout Europe. Traditional archaeology has interpreted these changes in terms of population growth, economic pressures and social competition, but in "The Domestication of Europe" Ian Hodder works from a new, controversial theory focusing instead on the enormous expansion of symbolic evidence from the homes, settlements and burials of the period. Why do the figurines, decorated pottery, elaborate houses and burial rituals appear and what is their significance? The author argues that the symbolism...

At one level the volume reports on the exciting new discoveries and advances that are being made in the understanding of the 9000 year-old Neolithic site of Catalhoeyuk.

These advances concern use of...

This book tackles the topic of religion, a broad subject exciting renewed interest across the social and historical sciences. The volume is tightly focused on the early farming village of Catalhoyuk, which has generated much interest both within and outside of archaeology, especially for its contributions to the understanding of early religion.

The 1980s witnessed exciting developments in theoretical writing in Western archaeology. Where previous decades were dominated by the Anglo-American perspective, or New Archaeology, the recent years showed the European debate grow in confidence and vitality. This book, published in 1991, captures this spirit of debate as contributors from a wide cross-section of countries evaluate the development of the distinctly national and European characteristics of archaeology and assess future directions. Contributors consider an extensive range of ideologies and viewpoints, stressing the fundamentally...

Theory and Practice in Archaeology
ISBN: 9781138155794 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this latest collection of his articles, of which seven are written especially for this volume, Ian Hodder captures and continues the lively controversy of the 1980s over symbolic and structural approaches to archaeology. The book acts as an overview of the developments in the discipline over the last decade; yet Hodder's brief is far wider. His aim is to break down the division between the intellectual and the "dirt" archaeologist to demonstrate that in this discipline more than any other, theory must be related to practice to save effectively our rapidly diminishing heritage.

Reading the Past
ISBN: 9780521821322 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The third edition of this classic introduction to archaeological theory and method has been fully updated to address the rapid development of theoretical debate throughout the discipline. Ian Hodder and Scott Hutson argue that archaeologists must consider a variety of perspectives in the complex and uncertain task of "translating the meaning of past texts into their own contemporary language." While remaining centered on the importance of meaning, agency and history, the authors explore the latest developments in post-structuralism, neo-evolutionary theory and phenomenology. Previous Edition...

Religion in the Emergence of Civilization: Çatalhöyük as a Case Study
ISBN: 9780521192606 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 374 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book presents an interdisciplinary study of the role of spirituality and religious ritual in the emergence of complex societies. Involving an eminent group of natural scientists, archaeologists, anthropologists, philosophers, and theologians, this volume examines Catalhoyuk as a case study. A nine-thousand-year old town in central Turkey, Catalhoyuk was first excavated in the 1960s and has since become integral to understanding the symbolic and ritual worlds of the early farmers and village-dwellers in the Middle East. It is thus an ideal location for exploring theories about the role of...

Emotional Bureaucracy
ISBN: 9781412814935 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study casts doubt on the classic model of bureaucracy and its relevance to developing areas. In particular, Hodder challenges the Weberian distinction between the role of emotion and a modern bureaucracy's impersonal and rational qualities. He suggests that bureaucracies function differently, and offers a different perspective. The focus is the Philippines, but Hodder's conclusions are applicable to other developing areas. Two main themes are discussed. The first explores the classic Weberian model of bureaucracy. The second concerns ways of thinking about the social features of...

Between Two Worlds: Society, Politics, and Business in the Philippines
ISBN: 9780700716432 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book considers the tensions and complementarities between two different attitudes towards social relationships - on the one hand, the attitude aspired to in the West, which emphasises individualism, institutional probity, and the rule of law, and which regards social relationships as ideals or absolutes; and, on the other hand, the attitude often found in Asia, where loyalties based on kinship, local networks, and places of origin are vitally important, and where social relationships, institutions and practices are often material for manipulation and the pursuit of ambition. The book...

The Life and Work of the Seventh Earl of Shaftesbury, K.G.
ISBN: 9781108075541 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 542 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the preface to this three-volume work of 1886, Edwin Hodder (1837 1904) writes that the seventh earl of Shaftesbury 'resisted every appeal that was made to him to allow his biography to be written'. In the end, he succumbed to the inevitable, and co-operated with Hodder, a professional author, sharing with him both his archives and his memories. Anthony Ashley-Cooper (1801 85) was an evangelical Christian with a profound sense of the duty owed by the aristocracy to their country and to the less fortunate. He first came to prominence as the leader of the parliamentary campaign for shorter...
