The Work of Art: Rethinking the Elementary Forms of Religious Life
ISBN: 9780231178181 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How are we to think of works of art? Rather than treat art as an expression of individual genius, market forces, or aesthetic principles, Michael Jackson focuses on how art effects transformations in our lives. Art opens up transitional, ritual, or utopian spaces that enable us to reconcile inward imperatives and outward constraints, thereby making our lives more manageable and meaningful. Art allows us to strike a balance between being actors and being acted upon. Drawing on his ethnographic fieldwork in Aboriginal Australia and West Africa, as well as insights from psychoanalysis,...

Lifeworlds: Essays in Existential Anthropology
ISBN: 9780226923659 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Michael Jackson's Lifeworlds is a masterful collection of essays, the culmination of a career aimed at understanding the relationship between anthropology and philosophy. Seeking the truths that are found in the interstices between examiner and examined, world and word, and body and mind, and taking inspiration from James, Dewey, Arendt, Husserl, Sartre, Camus, and, especially, Merleau-Ponty, Jackson creates in these chapters a distinctive anthropological pursuit of existential inquiry. More important, he buttresses this philosophical approach with committed empirical research....

The Other Shore: Essays on Writers and Writing
ISBN: 9780520275249 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this book, ethnographer and poet Michael Jackson addresses the interplay between modes of writing, modes of understanding, and modes of being in the world. Drawing on literary, anthropological and autobiographical sources, he explores writing as a technics akin to ritual, oral storytelling, magic and meditation, that enables us to reach beyond the limits of everyday life and forge virtual relationships and imagined communities. Although Maurice Blanchot wrote of the impossibility of writing, the passion and paradox of literature lies in its attempt to achieve the impossible--a leap of...

The Politics of Storytelling: Variations on a Theme by Hannah Arendt
ISBN: 9788763540360 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 322 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Hannah Arendt famously argued that politics are best understood as a power relationship between private and public realms. And storytelling, she argued, creates a vital bridge between these realms, a place where individual passions and shared perspectives can be contested and interwoven. In The Politics of Storytelling--revised in this 2nd edition with a new preface and design--anthropologist Michael Jackson explores and expands on Arendt's notions, bringing stories from all around the world into impressive cross-cultural analysis.

ISBN: 9780226491820 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Michael Jackson has spent much of his career elaborating his rich conception of lifeworlds, mining his ethnographic and personal experience for insights into how our subjective and social lives are mutually constituted. In How Lifeworlds Work, Jackson draws on years of ethnographic fieldwork in West Africa to highlight the dynamic quality of human relationships and reinvigorate the study of kinship and ritual. How, he asks, do we manage the perpetual process of accommodation between social norms and personal emotions, impulses, and desires? How are these two dimensions of lived...

Between One and One Another
ISBN: 9780520272330 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Michael Jackson extends his path-breaking work in existential anthropology by focusing on the interplay between two modes of human existence: that of participating in other peoples' lives and that of turning inward to one's self. Grounding his discussion in the subtle shifts between being acted upon and taking action, Jackson shows how the historical complexities and particularities found in human interactions reveal the dilemmas, conflicts, cares, and concerns that shape all of our lives. Through portraits of individuals encountered in the course of his travels, including friends and family,...

Minima Ethnographica: Intersubjectivity and the Anthropological Project
ISBN: 9780226389455 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 249 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The postmodern opposition between theory and lived reality has led in part to an anthropological turn to "dialogic" or "reflexive" approaches. Michael Jackson claims these approaches are hardly radical as they still drift into such abstractions as "society" or "culture." His Minima Ethnographica proposes an existential anthropology that recognizes even abstract relationships as modalities of interpersonal life. Written in the style of Theodor Adorno's Minima Moralia, Jackson's work shows how general ideas are always anchored in particular social events and critical concerns....
