Pressestimmen
Die in dem Band versammelten Texte verbindet ihre engagierte, aufgrund des bisweilen hohen Abstraktionsgrades und der Komplexität der Gedankengänge auch herausfordernde Argumentation.
Sonja Windmüller in: Bayerisches Jahrbuch für Volkskunde 2017
There are theoretical explorations as well as case-studies, from younger and established scholars, on a very wide variety of topics that are all related to “die Welt des Materiellen” in some way, but not at all from similar perspectives, nor dealing with similar research questions, or focussing on a specific discipline. […] For archaeologists trying to put the material turn into practice, this model presents a most useful point of departure for understanding how humans are lost in things indeed. A stimulating collection of essays.
Miguel John Versluys, in: EAZ 1–2/2015
The anthology as a whole offers an inspiring read and points to central flaws in anthropological theory. It is true that things are incapacitated by representationalism. Things are supposed to reflect social structure, or ideologies and cosmologies. Things in these perspectives are subordinate to a priori ideal categories. Therefore, the change in perspective propagated here is reasonable and necessary.
Stefan Burmeister, in: Germania 97, S. 386-390.
