Seeing and Knowing [PDF ebook]
Understanding Rock Art with and without Ethnography

Ajutor

Copertina de Geoffrey Blundell & Christopher Chippindale: Seeing and Knowing (PDF)

The purpose of Seeing and Knowing is to demonstrate the depth and wide geographical impact of David Lewis-Williams’ contribution to rock art research by emphasizing theory and methodology drawn from ethnography. Contributors explore what it means to understand and learn from rock art, and a contrast is drawn between those sites where it is possible to provide a modern, ethnographic context, and those sites where it is not. This is the definitive guide to the interplay between ethnography and rock art interpretation, and is an ideal resource for students and researchers alike.
