Dark Abyss of Time
Archaeology and Memory
AvLaurent Olivier
Inbunden, Engelska, 2011
1 382 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
The field of archaeology continues to face a major crisis of interpretation. The traditional view is that the basic business of archaeology is to reconstruct the history of cultures and civilizations through their material productions. Olivier challenges this view with a new approach to archaeological remains based on the works of French theorists such as Foucault, de Certeaux, and Derrida, with insight from Darwin and Freud. His thesis is that archaeology does not study the past itself but rather what materially remains of the past in our present. Olivier also develops an interpretation of material culture based on Aby Warburg’s and Walter Benjamin’s work in the anthropology of art. With wider implications for history and all social sciences, The Dark Abyss of Time is a major contribution to the theory of time, memory, heritage, and archaeology. This flawless translation makes Olivier’s elegantly written work available in English for the first time.

This book presents a conversation between two prominent archaeologists who have been exploring the concept of time in their discipline for several decades. It is a discussion on key issues of time in archaeology filtered through their unique perspectives, which sometimes meet and at other times, clash.
Key features include discussions on the nature of change and time in the archaeological record, the relation between the present and past, the connection between time and the goals of archaeology and the relevance of the Anthropocene to disciplinary practice. Situated in how the authors'' own views on the topic of time have developed over their careers, the conversation offers an intimate and personal insight into how two leading scholars think and debate a topic of central importance to the discipline.
All archaeologists with an interest in contemporary theory and the topic of time will find this book of relevance. Also the student who wants a front-row seat onto a live debate on this topic will find it an invaluable complement to the more traditional textbook.

Rethinking Historical Time
New Approaches to Presentism

Inbunden, Engelska, 2019

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Is time out of joint? For the past two centuries, the dominant Western time regime has been future-oriented and based on the linear, progressive and homogeneous concept of time. Over the last few decades, there has been a shift towards a new, present-oriented regime or ‘presentism’, made up of multiple and percolating temporalities. Rethinking Historical Time engages with this change of paradigm, providing a timely overview of cutting-edge interdisciplinary approaches to this new temporal condition.Marek Tamm and Laurent Olivier have brought together an international team of scholars working in history, anthropology, archaeology, geography, philosophy, literature and visual studies to rethink the epistemological consequences of presentism for the study of past and to discuss critically the traditional assumptions that underpin research on historical time. Beginning with an analysis of presentism, the contributors move on to explore in historical and critical terms the idea of multiple temporalities, before presenting a series of case studies on the variability of different forms of time in contemporary material culture.

El oscuro abismo del tiempo
Memoria y Arqueología
AvLaurent Olivier
Häftad, Spanska, 2020

Tillfälligt slut
With a very literary style and an unusual depth in current archaeology, Olivier makes a journey between metaphor and reality that questions archaeology as a discipline, in a positive way, highlighting that fundamental aspect as a science of "constantly recomposed memories." There, in the complex sphere of temporality, he shows us how archaeology is a discipline of the present that recovers memories from those remains that we recover like "rags from the past." It is a complex and stimulating book. In the prologue's words: "An unforgettable book that every professional archaeologist should read even if it is only to (re) think the fundamentals of what we do."
