Description

This philosophical work examines material culture as a subject of rigorous inquiry, addressing central and difficult issues whilst providing innovative solutions to longstanding problems in the field. The author develops an action-theoretic foundation for understanding material culture, arguing that it essentially involves activities of production and use. The book presents an original account of improvised action and a non-intentionalist approach to function in material culture, offering fresh perspectives on how objects, their creation, and their use shape human experience and understanding. Part of the Routledge Studies in Contemporary Philosophy series, this volume contributes significantly to philosophical scholarship on the relationship between humans, objects, and material practices.
