Description

Reclaiming Archaeology: Beyond the Tropes of Modernity offers a deep look at how archaeology has influenced 20th-century thought. While intellectuals like Sigmund Freud, Walter Benjamin, Alois Riegl, and Michel Foucault used archaeological concepts as metaphors, the discipline itself has often been treated as a mere source for these ideas. This book addresses the gap where scholars from other fields explore concepts like excavation, stratigraphy, and ruins without giving proper credit to the archaeological discipline. Part of the Archaeological Orientations series from Routledge, this work examines the relationship between archaeology and modern intellectual history. It seeks to restore the discipline's standing by addressing how its methods and findings have been used by others with little or no reference to the actual field of archaeology.

Key Features

This Routledge publication explores the relationship between archaeology and the metaphors used by 20th-century intellectuals.

The book examines the work of Sigmund Freud, Walter Benjamin, Alois Riegl, and Michel Foucault in relation to archaeological concepts.

Part of the Archaeological Orientations series, this text addresses how scholars use excavation and stratigraphy without referencing the discipline.

This title provides a critical look at how archaeology has been treated perfunctorily as a provider of metaphors for other fields.
