Imagining Landscapes : Past, Present and Future
ISBN: 9781409429715 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The landscapes of human habitation are not just perceived; they are also imagined. What part, then, does imagining landscapes play in their perception? The contributors to this volume, drawn from a range of disciplines, argue that landscapes are 'imagined' in a sense more fundamental than their symbolic representation in words, images and other media. Less a means of conjuring up images of what is 'out there' than a way of living creatively in the world, imagination is immanent in perception itself, revealing the generative potential of a world that is not so much ready-made as continually on...

Tuked Rini, Cosmic Traveller: Life and Legend in the Heart of Borneo
ISBN: 9788776941307 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This innovative and visually engaging study presents a legend from Borneo in which the Kelabit hero Tuked Rini ventures out into the cosmos to do battle in remote spirit-laden places, returning to his wife with the heads of his enemies. Accompanied by audio material and additional resources that will be developed on a companion website, the work uses the legend to explore Kelabit ideas about life and cosmology--ideas of power or life force, the world of women centred on rice-growing and the relationship of men with the wild. Especially innovative is the way it brings together an orally told...

Kinship and Food in South East Asia
ISBN: 9788791114939 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Food has an important role in establishing and structuring social and kin relations in Southeast Asian societies. For this reason, there is growing interest within anthropology in understanding how the production, processing and consumption of food is one important basis for the construction of ties of relatedness, so-called 'kin' ties. These are often based at least partly on 'shared substance'. In this respect, a book on Southeast Asia is especially interesting in understanding kinship since the region is generally taken to include a number of distinct types of kin structures. This...
