A Permeability of Boundaries?

New Approaches to the Archaeology of Art, Religion and Folklore

162 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This group of 15 papers, taken from a conference held at the University of Southampton in 1999, takes the issues of art, religion and folklore from the fringes of archaeological research and places it at the forefront of discussion. These papers cross the disciplinary boundaries and present case studies that are `challenging the orthodox and deconstructing rigidity', including those focusing on the prehistoric Carribean, post-Medieval East Anglia, north-west Iberia, southern India, shamanism in rock art and theoretical aspects of the debate.
