Philosophy and Anthropology

This original compilation of essays engages the largely unaddressed issue of the relationship between philosophy and anthropology over time with an innovative flair. 

‘Philosophy and Anthropology: Border Crossings and Transformations’ is an innovative and original collection of essays exploring the relationships between philosophy and anthropology – historically and presently – and the theoretical and practical issues concerning their dialogue.

Philosophy and anthropology have many, but largely unexplored, links and interrelationships. Historically, they have informed each other in subtle ways. This volume of original essays explores and enhances this relationship through anthropological engagement with philosophy and vice versa, the nature, sources and history of philosophical anthropology, phenomenology, and the practical, methodological and theoretical implications of a dialogue between the two subjects. ‘Philosophy and Anthropology: Border Crossings and Transformations’ seeks to enrich both the humanities and the social sciences through its informative and stimulating essays.
