The Archaeological Imagination
ISBN: 9781598743623 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 167 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Archaeology is a way of acting and thinking--about what is left of the past, about the temporality of what remains, about material and temporal processes to which people and their goods are subject, about the processes of order and entropy, of making, consuming and discarding at the heart of human experience. These elements, and the practices that archaeologists follow to uncover them, is the essence of the archaeological imagination. In this extended essay, renowned archaeological theorist Michael Shanks offers his colleagues and students a window on this imaginative world of past and...

The Classical Archaeology of Greece: Experiences of the Discipline
ISBN: 9780415172059 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Archaeologists do not discover the past but take the fragmentary remains which they recover and make something of them. Archaeology is a process of detection and supposition; this is what makes it so fascinating. However, the interpretations of archaeologists differ and change over time. They depend upon the amount of evidence available, the ideas and preconceptions of the archaeologist and their interests and aims.
Michael Shanks's enlivening work is a guide to the discipline of classical archaeology and its objects. It assesses archaeology as a means of reconstructing ancient Greek...

Re-constructing Archaeology : Theory and Practice
ISBN: 9780415088701 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In Re-Constructing Archaeology, Shanks and Tilley aim to challenge the disciplinary practices of both traditional and the new archaeology and to present a radical alternative - a critically self-consious archaeology aware of itself as practice in the present, and equally a social archaeology that appreciates artefacts not merely as objects of analysis but as part of a social world of past and present that is charged with meaning. It aims to provide a fresh and invigorating contribution to the emergence of a philosophically and politically informed archaeology.

Social Theory and Archaeology
ISBN: 9780745601847 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Archaeological theory and method have recently become the subject of vigorous debate centred on the growing realization that archaeological theory is social theory and as such can be looked at by means of a wide variety of sociological frameworks, such as structuralism and post-structuralism, Marxism and critical theory. In this analysis, Shanks and Tilley argue against the functionalism and positivism which result from an inadequate assimilation of social theory into the day-to-day practice of archaeology. Aimed at an advanced undergraduate audience, the book presents a challenge to the...

Interpreting Archaeology : Finding Meaning in the Past
ISBN: 9780415157445 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume provides a forum for debate between varied approaches to the past. The authors, drawn from Europe, North America, Asia and Australia, represent many different strands of archaeology. They address the philosophical issues involved in interpretation and a desire among archaeologists to come to terms with their own subjective approaches to the material they study. The book also recognizes how past researchers have also imposed their own value systems on the evidence which they presented.

Art and the Early Greek State
ISBN: 9780521602853 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Widely known as an innovative figure in contemporary archaeology, Michael Shanks has written a challenging contribution to recent debates on the emergence of the Greek city states in the first millennium BC. He interprets the art and archaeological remains of Korinth to elicit connections between new urban environments, foreign trade, warfare, and the ideology of male sovereignty. Adopting an interdisciplinary perspective, which draws on an anthropologically informed archaeology, ancient history, art history, material culture studies and structural approaches to the classics, his book raises...

The Psychology of Associative Learning
ISBN: 9780521449762 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It is hard to think of any significant aspect of our lives that is not influenced by what we have learned in the past. Of fundamental importance is our ability to learn the ways in which events are related to one another, called associative learning. This book provides a fresh look at associative learning theory and reviews extensively the advances made over the past twenty years. The Psychology of Associative Learning begins by establishing that the human associative learning system is rational in the sense that it accurately represents event relationships. David Shanks goes on to consider...
