Η ΑΝΤΙΛΗΨΗ ΤΟΥ ΠΕΡΙΒΑΛΛΟΝΤΟΣ
Πώς αντιλαμβάνονται οι άνθρωποι το περιβάλλον; Μια δυναμική θεώρηση από έναν ειδήμονα της συγκριτικής ανθρωπολογίας, της εξελικτικής θεωρίας και των σχέσεων πολιτισμού, τεχνολογίας και οικολογίας. Σύμφωνα με τον Τιμ Ίνγκολντ, η πολιτισμική ποικιλότητα συνίσταται, πρώτα απ' όλα, στην ποικιλία των δεξιοτήτων. Ούτε έμφυτες, ούτε επίκτητες, αλλά βιολογικές όσο και πολιτισμικές, οι δεξιότητες αναπτύσσονται και ενσωματώνονται στον ανθρώπινο οργανισμό μέσα από την πρακτική και την εκπαίδευση σ' ένα περίγυρο. Για να εξηγήσουμε τη γέννησή τους μέ...

(P/B) LINES
What do walking, weaving, observing, storytelling, singing, drawing and writing have in common? The answer is that they all proceed along lines. In this extraordinary book Tim Ingold imagines a world in which everyone and everything consists of interwoven or interconnected lines and lays the foundations for a completely new discipline: the anthropological archaeology of the line. Ingold's argument leads us through the music of Ancient Greece and contemporary Japan, Siberian labyrinths and Roman roads, Chinese calligraphy and the printed al...

(P/B) THE LIFE OF LINES
To live, every being must put out a line, and in life these lines tangle with one another. This book is a study of the life of lines. Following on from Tim Ingold's groundbreaking work Lines: A Brief History, it offers a wholly original series of meditations on life, ground, weather, walking, imagination and what it means to be human. In the first part, Ingold argues that a world of life is woven from knots, and not built from blocks as commonly thought. He shows how the principle of knotting underwrites both the way things join with one a...

(P/B) MAKING
Making creates knowledge, builds environments and transforms lives. Anthropology, archaeology, art and architecture are all ways of making, and all are dedicated to exploring the conditions and potentials of human life. In this exciting book, Tim Ingold ties the four disciplines together in a way that has never been attempted before. In a radical departure from conventional studies that treat art and architecture as compendia of objects for analysis, Ingold proposes an anthropology and archaeology not of but with art and architecture. He a...

(P/B) THE PERCEPTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT
In this work Tim Ingold offers a persuasive approach to understanding how human beings perceive their surroundings. He argues that what we are used to calling cultural variation consists, in the first place, of variations in skill. Neither innate nor acquired, skills are grown, incorporated into the human organism through practice and training in an environment. They are thus as much biological as cultural. The twenty-three essays comprising this book focus in turn on the procurement of livelihood, on what it means to "dwell", and on the ...
