Walking Into the Void: A Historical Sociology and Political Anthropology of Walking
今日就讓我們以 “Walking Into the Void: A Historical Sociology and Political Anthropology of Walking” 一書作為連日來歷史人類學書籍推介劃下休止符。此書首先討論步行對於人類體驗的重要性,包括對步行的語言和文化的比較研究。然後,它以考古學為基礎,詳細回顧了人類歷史的兩個轉折點:洞穴藝術保護區的出現和長途朝聖的新文化實踐,這意味著深入這些洞穴,因此實際上是 “虛空 void”; 冰河時代末期,人們通過定居而放棄了步行文化,大約在那個時候,洞穴保護區的參觀也停止了 。哲學和基督教的興起被描述為步行的兩次回歸。這本書以當代現代性與步行之間矛盾的關係作為結尾,對步行的徹底放棄與回歸的嘗試相結合。 本書前所未有地探索了行走文化的譜系,匯集了遙遠時空的考古研究,並特別關注代表性藝術的興起對人類歷史的意義。我們人類的家譜幫助人認識到,定居點並不是文明的輝煌起源 ,而是一個極其有問題的發展的根源。這本書的研究結果應該與社會科學家以及那些對步行及其文化和文明意義或人類歷史的方向和意義感興趣的人相關。 說到 “行走”,這本書關注的是一種特殊的行走 ,一種走進虛空的行走。從某種意義上說,任何真正的步行 —— 不是一小時的隨意漫步,而是持續的努力,持續很長的幾天,甚至幾週 —— 就是走進虛空,進入未知的地方。再一次, “虛空 void” 意味著更多的東西,不僅僅是未知,而且是字面上的虛無:一種特殊的,比我們更大的,一種巨大的情感負擔。更進一步,正是在這裏,通過虛空,科學和宗教,據說與現代性分離,突然再次相遇,雖然虛空是牛頓科學的基礎,但實際上,人也可以在虛空中認識神。事實上,虛空的存在,就像無限的象徵一樣,是一個棘手的問題,並且可以像莫比烏斯環一樣簡單地與有關神聖 “存在 existence ” 的同樣棘手的問題聯繫起來。換句話說,通過虛空,牛頓-康德的先驗論遇到了超越性的宗教意義。 此外,這本書主要關注一種非常特殊的走進虛空的方式:舊石器時代晚期走進洞穴的做法,作為 “朝聖 pilgrimage” 的中心,洞穴的牆上掛滿了巨大而難以理解的美麗畫作 。 然而,這些洞穴代表的是一種出現,而不是起源,因為它們的新穎性,代表性藝術的誕生,不僅是文化的輝煌起源,而且也是代表性問題的根源。再現實際上就是 … Continue reading
