Writing Remains

Description

"Writing Remains brings together a wide range of leading archaeologists and literary scholars to explore emerging intersections in archaeological and literary practice. Drawing upon a wide range of literary texts from the nineteenth century to the present, the book offers new approaches to understanding storytelling and narrative in archaeology, and the role of archaeological methods in literature and literary criticism. Across the book's 10 chapters - ranging from Thomas Hardy and H.P. Lovecraft to Zadie Smith and Paul Beatty, from new genetic insights into prehistoric man and the deepening record of our changing human environment - scholars from across disciplines are brought into dialogue, making innovative connections to concepts, methodologies and practices of cultural understanding"--
