Nära nyskick. Tillsynes obläddrat exemplar///Förlagets beskrivning: Material culture has finally earned a central place within anthropology. Emerging from the pioneering work done at University College London, this reader brings together for th© first time seminal articles that have helped shape the anthropological study of material culture. With topics ranging from the anthropology of art to architecture, landscape studies, archaeology, consumption studies and Heritage management, this key text reflects the breadth of material culture studies today. The authors/who discuss field sites as distant as Vanuatu, New Ireland, Trinidad and Soviet Russia, show how material culture provides a new lens for viewing the world around us and effectively bridges the gap between theory and data. Providing the first-ever synthesis of these ground-breaking essays in an easily accessible volume, this book will serve as a comprehensive introduction to the subject and a valuable reference guide for anyone interested in material culture, anthropology, art and museum studies.
