Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Hardcover, xi + 363 pages, index, NOT ex-library. Faint age-spotting on page edges externally. Interior is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- Archaeology is a social practice that is thoroughly embedded in the contemporary world. This is nowhere clearer than in the Middle East, a region that is today an epicenter of political and economic tensions and ongoing conflicts. Archaeologies of the Middle East: Critical Perspectives provides an innovative introduction to the archaeology of this fascinating region, spanning 100,000 years from the Paleolithic to Hellenistic times, and a window on both its past and present. Archaeologies of the Middle East explores the connections between modern-day politics and the social context of archaeological practice and underutilized approaches to archaeological interpretation, such as: examining the ways in which scholars write about the past, the portrayal of archaeology in the news media, and the impacts of and on archaeology in volatile political situations. Written by some of the top archaeologists of the Middle East, this volume integrates scholars from diverse backgrounds with a wide range of interests and intellectual approaches to their research. Archaeologies of the Middle East is carefully designed for student use and focuses on key themes and time periods rather than offering a static overview of the history of the region. -- Contents: A Cultural-Historical Framework / Reinhard Bernbeck and Susan Pollock; Producing and Disseminating Knowledge About the Ancient Near East / Reinhard Bernbeck and Susan Pollock; Who Has Not Eaten Cherries With the Devil Archaeology Under Challenge / Caroline Steele; Archaeology and Nationalism in the Holy Land / Adel Yahya; Archaeology Goes to War at the Newstand / Susan Pollock; The Past as Fact or Fiction From Historical Novels to Novel Histories / Reinhard Bernbeck; Reassessing Evolutionary "Firsts" / Reinhard Bernbeck and Susan Pollock; Bleeding or Breeding: Neanderthals Vs.
