Entangled Discussions: Talking with Ian Hodder About His Book Entangled: Streitraum: Entanglement

Abstract

Through a series of fortuitous events, Ian Hodder agreed to visit the Institut für Vorderasiatische Archäologie (Institute of Western Asian Archaeology), Freie Universität Berlin in early December 2013 to discuss his recent book, Entangled: An Archaeology of the Relationships between Humans and Things. A group of interested students and scholars assembled for this occasion. As organizers of this event, we are pleased to acknowledge the sponsorship of the Excellence Cluster Topoi and the Institut für Vorderasiastische Archäologie, both of the Freie Universität Berlin, and Forum Kritische Archäologie. Above all we wish to express our thanks to Ian Hodder for his willingness to engage over the course of a long afternoon with our comments and question.
