Material Hermeneutics
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-72034-6 (ISBN)
Material Hermeneutics explores the ways in which new imaging technologies and scientific instruments have changed our notions about ancient history. From the first lunar calendar to the black hole image, and from an ancient mummy in the Italian Alps to the irrigated valleys of Mesopotamia, this book demonstrates how revolutions in science have taught us far more than we imagined. Written by a leading philosopher of technology and utilizing an interdisciplinary approach, this book has implications for many fields, including philosophy, history, science, and technology. It will appeal to scholars and students of the humanities, as well as anthropologists and archaeologists.
Don Ihde is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at Stony Brook University, USA. He is the author of 24 published books and lives in New York with his wife, Linda.
