Beyond Nature and Culture
AvPhilippe Descola
Häftad, Engelska, 2014

Successor to Claude Levi-Strausa at the College de France, Philippe Descola has become one of the most important anthropologists working today, and Beyond Nature and Culture has been a major influence in European intellectual life since its publication in 2005. Here, finally, it is brought to English-language readers. At its heart is a question central to both anthropology and philosophy: what is the relationship between nature and culture? Culture - as a collective human making, of art, language, and so forth - is often seen as essentially different than nature, which is portrayed as a collective of the nonhuman world, of plants, animals, geology, and natural forces. Descola shows this essential difference to be, however, not only a specifically Western notion, but also a very recent one. Drawing on ethnographic examples from around the world and theoretical understandings from cognitive science, structural analysis, and phenomenology, he formulates a sophisticated new framework, the "four ontologies" - animism, totemism, naturalism, and analogism - to account for all the ways we relate ourselves to nature.By thinking beyond nature and culture as a simple dichotomy, Descola offers nothing short of a fundamental reformulation by which anthropologists and philosophers can see the world afresh.

Imagery and figuration are not just figments of an artist’s imagination. Perception and imagination are always shaped by what habit has taught us to discern. The visual path we spontaneously trace through the world depends on where we are situated in the four regions of the ontological archipelago: animism, naturalism, totemism or analogism. Each of these four regions corresponds to a way of conceiving the objects that make up the world, of perceiving the continuities and discontinuities in the folds of the world and of drawing the dividing lines between humans and nonhumans. From Alaskan Yup’ik masks and Aboriginal bark paintings to miniature landscapes from the Song dynasty and Dutch Golden Age interior scenes: each image reveals, through what it shows or fails to show, a certain figurative regime, identifiable by the formal means it uses and by the device through which it can unleash its power to act. The figurative regime enables us to grasp – sometimes better than words can – the contrasting ways of living that characterize the human condition and its relation to the nonhuman. By comparing a great diversity of visual images and artworks, Descola masterfully lays the theoretical foundations for an anthropology of figuration. One of the world’s leading anthropologists, Philippe Descola has developed a comparative anthropology of relations between humans and nonhumans that has revolutionized both the human sciences and our ways of thinking about the great ecological issues of our time. His new book will be of great value to students and scholars of anthropology, visual art and art history and to anyone interested in art, culture and the relations between the human and nonhuman worlds.

The contributors to this book focus on the relationship between nature and society from a variety of theoretical and ethnographic perspectives. Their work draws upon recent developments in social theory, biology, ethnobiology, epistemology, sociology of science, and a wide array of ethnographic case studies -- from Amazonia, the Solomon Islands, Malaysia, the Mollucan Islands, rural comunities from Japan and north-west Europe, urban Greece, and laboratories of molecular biology and high-energy physics. The discussion is divided into three parts, emphasising the problems posed by the nature-culture dualism, some misguided attempts to respond to these problems, and potential avenues out of the current dilemmas of ecological discourse.
Politics of Worlding

The Politics of Worldling presents Philippe Descola's Tanner Lectures on Human Values, delivered in 2023 at the University of California, Berkeley. It offers a highly readable précis of some of the central ideas that animate Descola's work, and an excellent gateway into a new vision of anthropology developed by one of its most distinguished practitioners. The lectures draw heavily on Descola's research among Achuar peoples (formerly known as Jivaro) of the Upper Amazon, and on his erudite knowledge of the comparative literature in anthropology. He presents evidence that people in different societies construe the relation between nature and culture in fundamentally different ways, according to how they view human beings versus other-than-human beings. Modern Euro-American naturalism holds that the laws of nature are universal and apply continuously across life forms, whereas human mental processes, self-consciousness and "inner lives" are unlike, and hence discontinous with the inner lives of non-human beings. Descola critiques this schema as anchronistic and destructive in the way it has led us to construct our world. He proposes alternative ways of thinking about "worldling" that might lead to less destructive outcomes, and provides a four-part typology of alternative relationships between the human and non-human, employing fascinating examples from the field. The commentators-political theorist Adom Getachew, environmental historian Timothy J. LeCain and comparative archaeologist David Wengrew-respond to the lectures and emphasize the importance of history, hybridity and the need for new, multidisciplinary approaches, to which Descola responds in a final chapter. Intellectually compelling, politically critical, and forward looking, and including an introduction by the volume editor William F. Hanks, The Politics of Worldling will be valuable for scholars and students alike interested in a concise presentation of the views of one of its most visionary theorists.

The Achuar Indians live in the remote forest reaches of the Upper Amazon and have developed sophisticated strategies of resource management. Philippe Descola, who has gathered material over several years of fieldwork, documents their rich knowledge of the environment. He explains how this technical knowledge of the increasingly threatened Amazonian ecosystems is interwoven with cosmological ideas that endow nature with the characteristics of society. Combining a symbolist approach with an ecological analysis, the book contributes a new theory of the social construction of nature.

Sex Thieves – The Anthropology of a Rumor

While working in Africa, anthropologist Julien Bonhomme encountered an astonishing phenomenon: people being accused of stealing or shrinking the genitals of strangers on the simple occasion of a handshake on the street. As he soon discovered, these accusations can have dramatic outcomes: the "sex thieves" are often targeted by large crowds and publicly lynched. Moreover, such rumors are an extremely widespread practice, having affected almost half of the African continent since the 1970s. In this book, Bonhomme examines the story of the "penis snatcher," asking larger questions about how to account for such a phenomenon unique in its spatial and temporal scale without falling prey to the cliche of Africa as an exotic other. Bonhomme argues that the public belief in sex thieves cannot be considered a superstition or form of mass hysteria. Rather, he brings to light multiple factors that explain the rumor's success and shows how the cultural dynamic can operate on a vast scale.Analyzing the rumor on both transnational and local levels, he demonstrates how it arises from the ambiguities and dangers of anonymity, and thus that it reveals an occult flipside to everyday social interaction. Altogether, this book provides both richly ethnographic and theoretical understandings of urban sociality and the dynamics of human communication in contemporary Africa and beyond.

In this autobiographical reflection, the distinguished anthropologist Philippe Descola looks back on his intellectual career and examines both the central themes of his work and the key questions that have shaped anthropological debates over the past forty years.A student of Lévi-Strauss, Descola conducted ethnographic research among the Achuar of the upper Amazon in the late 1970s, focusing on how native societies relate to their environment. In this book he sheds fresh light on the evolution of his thinking from structuralism to an anthropology beyond the human, on the critique of the modern separation between nature and society, and above all on the genesis and scope of his major work Beyond Nature and Culture. This synthesis of the ways in which humans view their relationships with non-humans proposes four schemas for the ‘composition of worlds’ (animism, naturalism, totemism, analogism) that characterize our ways of inhabiting the earth.Presented in the form of an extended conversation with Pierre Charbonnier, this book is both a lucid introduction to the work of one of the most original anthropologists writing today and an impassioned plea for ontologies that are more accommodating of the diversity of beings.

Revêtue de significations multiples, la nature a longtemps formé le pôle principal d’une série d’oppositions dans la pensée européenne : nature et culture, nature et surnature, nature et art, nature et esprit, nature et histoire… Des études de plus en plus nombreuses, dont ce livre se fait l’écho, mettent en doute la généralité de ces catégories et leur pertinence. L’effritement des limites de la nature est-il total, ou doit-on reconnaître la persistance de certaines discontinuités fondamentales entre humains et non-humains ? Issu du colloque de rentrée qui s’est tenu au Collège de France en octobre 2017, ce livre propose une réflexion interdisciplinaire sur les questions soulevées par les déplacements et les brouillages de frontière entre déterminations naturelles et déterminations humaines. Le seuil critique que semble avoir atteint l’anthropisation de la Terre, dont le réchauffement global n’est peut-être que l’exemple le plus criant, donne à ces questions une actualité nouvelle. Philippe Descola est anthropologue et professeur au Collège de France, titulaire de la chaire Anthropologie de la nature. Contributions de Étienne Anheim, Anne Cheng, Alain Fischer, Marie-Angèle Hermitte, Frédéric Keck, Geoffrey Lloyd, François Ost, Alain Prochiantz, Jean-Noël Robert, Clément Sanchez, Justin E. H.

Ce livre réunit les contributions au colloque organisé au Collège de France en novembre 2008 à l’occasion du centenaire de Claude Lévi-Strauss (1908-2009). Au cours de cette longue vie, ponctuée par une trentaine de livres et plus de quatre cents articles, Claude Lévi-Strauss a refondé l’anthropologie en France. Nous commençons à peine aujourd’hui à mettre en valeur ses réflexions sur la nature de la vie sociale, sur le destin des peuples, sur le procès de connaissance ou sur l’émotion esthétique, dont quelques philosophes se sont emparés afin d’en examiner les conséquences dans l’ordre d’un remaniement des concepts dont nous nous servons pour comprendre le monde et sa chatoyante diversité. Ce centième anniversaire de Claude Lévi-Strauss offrait l’occasion de revenir sur le parcours intellectuel d’un auteur devenu un classique et dont les contributions, pour attachées qu’elles soient à une austérité scientifique sans concession, ont néanmoins su séduire un vaste public. Philippe Descola est professeur au Collège de France (chaire d’Anthropologie de la nature), directeur d’études à l’EHESS, et il dirige le Laboratoire d’anthropologie sociale. Il est notamment l’auteur des Lances du crépuscule (1993) et de Par-delà nature et culture (2005). Contributions de M. Bloch, M. Carneiro da Cunha, D. Fabre,R. Hamayon, F. Héritier, L. de Heusch, C. Imbert, P. Maranda, M. Mauzé, M. Sahlins, C. Severi.

Considerado uno de los grandes antropólogos franceses del siglo XX, Philippe Descola realiza sus primeros trabajos de campo en la Amazonia. Como etnógrafo, convive durante años con los jíbaros achuar, observando la relación que estos amerindios mantienen con los demás seres de la naturaleza. Como etnólogo, demuestra que la tradicional oposición occidental entre naturaleza y cultura no se observa entre los achuar, quienes atribuyen características humanas a la naturaleza. Por último, como antropólogo, define cuatro formas de relación con el mundo —totemismo, animismo, naturalismo y analogismo— que ayudan a explicar la relación del hombre con su entorno. En un texto claro y didáctico, Philippe Descola repasa las principales etapas de su recorrido y nos ofrece una apasionante introducción a la práctica de la antropología y a una «ecología de las relaciones».

Pensar lo visual antropológicamente conlleva comprender las formasen que distintos pueblos alrededor del mundo se han enfrentado a loque hacen las imágenes –no siempre diferenciada de la escritura–,así como el lugar que se les ha asignado en la vida y en la muerte,en la «cultura» y en la «naturaleza». La reflexión resultante llevaindefectiblemente a interrogar el estatuto de lo humano, y sutransformación concomitante a las mutaciones de lo visual, una vezque las imágenes se obtienen por medio de un cálculo maquínico.Este segundo volumen reúne algunos de los nombres másrelevantes de la antropología y de los estudios sobre la imagen,además de figuras centrales de disciplinas como la egiptología o laepistemología. Sin excepción, sus trabajos muestran que el estudiode la visualidad no puede hacerse si no es cruzando disciplinas,campos y culturas. El conjunto es un libro que con seguridadcontribuirá a los debates en curso sobre lo visual y lo antropológico.

Sa tentative sincère de décrire le monde dans les termes de celles et ceux qui l’habitent, traverse le domaine des sciences sociales pour toucher un très large public. Autant que Claude Lévi-Strauss, dont il a été l’élève, Descola a su tisser un dialogue qui non seulement a enrichi toutes les disciplines, mais a permis de questionner les méthodes de l’anthropologie. Dans toute son œuvre, Descola développe ainsi une anthropologie comparative ouvrant le débat sur des questions contemporaines, notamment celles liées au changement climatique.
