Description

Explore the hidden world of the domestic sphere with Home Possessions: Material Culture Behind Closed Doors. While much of our lives happen within our homes, these private spaces are often difficult for researchers to study. This book offers a unique look at how material culture works to help construct our lives. Rather than seeing home decoration as a purely personal choice, this work presents the home as an active participant in our social existence. It examines the concept of a new form of estate agency, where the objects we own play a role in our identity and social standing. Through an anthropological lens, the text investigates the meaning behind the things we own. It asks important questions about human movement, such as what our chosen possessions say about our identities when we move. By studying the items people choose to take with them during a move, the book explores the tension between the mobility of life and the stability provided by our belongings. This is an essential read for those interested in sociology and the study of material culture.
