Description
Tim Ingold's Being Alive explores the fundamental connection between human life and the world around us. By re-examining traditional anthropological approaches, Ingold seeks to restore life as a central concern of the discipline.
The essays in this collection delve into various themes, including the nature of materials, perception, storytelling, and the role of movement in shaping our understanding of the world. Ingold argues that human experience is not pre-defined, but rather emerges from our interactions with the environment through movement and wayfaring.
This edition includes a new preface by the author, offering fresh insights into his thought-provoking ideas on movement, knowledge, and description.
