The Affect of Crafting: Third Millennium BCE Copper Arrowheads from Ganeshwar, Rajasthan

By (author) Uzma Z. Rizvi





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy


| book description |

The Affect of Crafting presents an interrogation of materiality and crafting, a consideration of the situatedness of the technological practice of crafting itself, and the forms of relationships that exist between all things transformed in the act of crafting: bodies, minerals and landscapes. Linked to those transformations, this volume presents an argument for cultural resonance as a manner through which to understand the resilience and repetition of certain styles and forms of copper arrowheads across the region during the third millennium BCE. Morphological consistency is theorized as producing affective responses that engender belonging: one belongs with and through things.
