Entangled

A New Archaeology of the Relationships between Humans and Things

Omschrijving

Unlike the example of Theseus's ship, Hodder's new Entangled uses many of the same planks to create a different vessel. Things are still front and centre, but now they are radically recast as conduits through which forces flow, forces that move from past to future through a non-existent present of solid objects that is our own projection. Hodder has let his thinking flow over the shifting theoretical terrain of the last decade, revealing a new direction for archaeological interpretation. -Carl Knappett, Professor and Chair, Art History, University of Toronto In this enhanced second edition, enriched by a focus on flows and process, the master of archaeological theory demonstrates that his work remains as central to contemporary debates as ever. -Oliver Harris, Associate Professor of Archaeology, University of Leicester Entangled presents a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the theory of material entrapment, exploring how archaeological evidence can provide a clearer understanding of human social and technological development. Drawing on vivid examples from early history to modern life, Ian Hodder's innovative volume illuminates the entanglement of people and things as a defining characteristic of human history and culture. Entangled demonstrates that the co-dependency of humans and objects is the essential, unseen driver of human development. This revised and expanded edition provides fresh perspectives on this relationality, reframing it in terms of dependency to better explore inequality and injustice. An entirely new chapter explores human dependency on other humans, and there is a new focus on object-orientated ontologies, symmetrical archaeology, and indigenous approaches to archaeology. Entangled: A New Archaeology of the Relationships between Humans and Things, Second Edition, is essential reading for undergraduate and graduate students, lecturers, researchers, and scholars in the fields of archaeology, anthropology, material culture studies, phenomenology, and evolutionary theory.
