Investigating the core concepts of materiality, perception, ritual and agency the volume redefines conceptual categories and argues for the need of 'critical bewilderment' as a unique scholarly practice. The pioneering intersubjective methodology brings together recent developments in religious aesthetics, theoretical archaeology and cultural studies. Taking as its focus 'troublesome' objects and places - those deemed ambiguous in purpose and meaning - the individual case studies contribute new knowledge to a range of areas including the archaeology of shamanism, contemporary art and early medieval Norse and Insular material culture. \u003ci\u003eStag and Stone\u003c\/i\u003e offers useful insights to upper level undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers in the areas of heritage and cultural studies, theoretical archaeology, animal studies, religious studies and art history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jay Johnston\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1781793387\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781781793381\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Equinox Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d","brand":"Jay Johnston","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43991844028671,"sku":"9781781793381","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_85b9b0a9-d2b2-44fb-8b3b-8856da168837.jpg?v=1683312560","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/stag-and-stone-jay-johnston-9781781793381","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
