Taussig, Michael, Corpse Magic: Echoes Active in the Slayer-Slain Nexus. 320 pp. 2025:4 (U. Chicago Pr., US) <747-716>

Corpse Magic examines beliefs about vengeance the slain magically enact on their killers, focusing on lethal violence in Colombia and the United States.Corpse Magic is a response to the global ubiquity of violence. In this bracing new work, the influential anthropologist Michael Taussig puts killings in Colombia, by gangs and guerrillas, police and the military, and agents of agribusiness, in conversation with mass shootings and police killings, disproportionately of Black people, in the United States. In both contexts, he examines the effects of violent killing on its victims, its perpetrators, and those who witness and relive it through media footage. Drawing from literature, religion, philosophy, and anthropology, Taussig traces the idea that the act of killing "infects" the killer and spreads outward, then connects this concept of contagion to beliefs in Colombia and elsewhere that the souls of the slain possess those of their slayers and that magic can be used to empower or thwart corpses as agents of vengeance. In this powerful and imaginative work, Taussig asks what kind of power the dead continue to have; what kinds of magic can manage that power; and what, if anything, can stop seemingly endless cycles of violence.

Pinto-Garcia, Lina, Marana: War and Disease in the Jungles of Colombia. 240 pp. 2025:4 (U. Chicago Pr., US) <747-413>

Delves into the relationship between war and disease, focusing on Colombian armed conflict and the skin disease known as cutaneous leishmaniasis. Cutaneous leishmaniasis, transmitted by female sandflies, produces skin lesions of varying size and shape. In Colombia, the insect vector of the disease is native to the same forested environments that have served as the main stage for one of the longest and most violent wars in Latin American history. As a result, the populations most affected by leishmaniasis in Colombia are members of the state army and nonstate armed groups. Lina Pinto-Garcia explores how leishmaniasis and the armed conflict are inextricably connected and mutually reinforcing. Marana means "tangle" in Spanish but is also commonly used in Colombia to name the entangled greenery, braided lianas, and dense foliage that characterize the tropical forests where leishmaniasis transmission typically occurs. Pinto-Garcia argues that leishmaniasis and the war are not merely linked but enmaranadas to each other through narratives, technologies, and practices produced by the state, medicine, biomedical research, and the armed conflict itself. All told, Marana is a passionate study of how war has shaped the production of scientific knowledge about leishmaniasis and access to its treatments in Colombia.

Mayor, Adrienne, Mythopedia: A Brief Compendium of Natural History Lore. (Pedia Books) 216 pp. 2025:10 (Princeton U. Pr., US) <747-206>
ISBN 978-0-691-24786-1 hard ¥3,731.- (税込) US$ 17.95

From acclaimed folklorist and historian Adrienne Mayor, an enchanting collection of the ancient myths that emerged out of the wonders-and disasters-of the natural worldMythopedia is a fun, fact-filled A-Z treasury of myths inspired by natural events. Bringing together fifty legends from antiquity to the present, this delightfully entertaining book takes you around the world to explore sunken kingdoms and lost cities, accursed mountains and treacherous terrains, and lethal lakes and singing sand dunes, explaining the historical background and latest science underlying each tale.As soon as humans invented language, they told stories to explain mysterious things they observed around them-on land, in the seas, and in the skies. Even though these tales are expressed in poetic or supernatural language, they contain surprisingly accurate insights and even eyewitness descriptions of catastrophic events millennia ago. Drawing on her unique insights as a pioneer in the exciting new field of geomythology, Adrienne Mayor describes how cultural memories of tsunamis, volcanic disasters, and other massive geological events can reach back thousands of years as the stories were preserved, elaborated, told, and retold across generations. She shows how geomythology is expanding our understanding of our planet's history over eons, revealing the human desire to explain nature and weave imaginative stories intertwined with keen observation, rational speculation, and memory.With captivating drawings by Michele Angel, Mythopedia is a compendium of many marvels, from the Hindu monkey god Hanuman and his army of bridge-building primates to the terrifying sand demon Shensha shen of China, the gnawing glaciers of Austria, and the vengeful fish-headed snake god Nyami Nyami of Africa's Zambezi River.Features a cloth cover with an elaborate foil-stamped design

Bilstein, Johannes / Winzen, Matthias / Zirfas, J. (eds.), Pedagogical Anthropology of Technology: Practices, Objects and Ways of Life. 249 pp. 2025:6 (Springer, GW) <747-1273>
ISBN 978-3-658-47539-0 paper ¥20,005.- (税込) EUR 84.99 *

The volume examines the question of which specifically educational techniques are required in view of the increasing establishment and professionalization of pedagogical fields of work. In this context, an attempt is made to clarify what pedagogical and didactic preparation must take place for an increasingly technically oriented world. In addition, the everyday techniques of self-care are analyzed. And finally, pedagogical anthropology is also concerned with the question of who is the subject and object of technology.

我々の起源の考古学を理解する
Dominguez-Rodrigo, Manuel / Baquedano, Enrique (eds.), Traces of the Distant Human Past: Understanding the Archaeology of our Origins. 350 pp. 2025:10 (Cambridge U. Pr., UK) <747-1275>
ISBN 978-1-009-67059-3 hard ¥25,443.- (税込) GB£ 90.00

Traces of the Distant Human Past offers a critical examination of early human behavior by challenging traditional narratives and pushing for a more scientific, theoretically informed approach to archaeology. Emphasizing the importance of understanding early humans within their environmental context, the contributors to this volume propose a shift towards theoretical frameworks and ecological perspectives in archaeological research. They highlight the scarcity of well-preserved archaeological sites, making a strong case for high-resolution analyses and the need for new methodologies, including the use of artificial intelligence in taphonomy. By questioning the scientific rigor of current practices and advocating for hypothesis-driven research, this volume not only informs but also inspires a reevaluation of the approaches that can be applied to an interpretation of the evidence for human evolution in the archaeological record. It will be an essential resource for those interested in advancing the field and gaining a deeper understanding of human origins.

Leach, Melissa / Fairhead, James, Naturekind: Language, Culture and Power Beyond the Human. 272 pp. 2025:10 (Princeton U. Pr., US) <747-1276>

A new paradigm that integrates human and nonhuman communication and cultureAre language and culture uniquely human, justifying an exceptionalism that sets people apart from the rest of nature? New discoveries in the biological sciences have challenged this assumption, finding syntax, symbolism and social learning beyond the human, and identifying culture as a second inheritance system across the phyla from whales to insects and plants. Biologists are constrained, however, by the mechanistic ways communication is understood. In Naturekind, Melissa Leach and James Fairhead address this impasse by extending insights from structural linguistics, social semiotics, anthropology and Indigenous theorization into wider life, integrating them with new biological findings to develop a new structural biosemiotics paradigm.Leach and Fairhead argue that such a paradigm can provide a unified theory of meaning-making across all of nature, or "naturekind," allowing new theorisation about human and nonhuman communication and culture. They examine people's communicative encounters with chickens, horses, bees, bats and plants, and with assemblages of living and nonliving entities-forests, seas, soils and cities. Marrying the new biology with the structural social sciences, they contend, provides powerful insights for living well with wider life on a shared planet and transforming political relations.

Sherman, Daniel J., Sensations: French Archaeology between Science and Spectacle, 1890-1940. 288 pp. 2025:5 (U. Chicago Pr., US) <747-1280>
ISBN 978-0-226-83537-2 hard ¥9,874.- (税込) US$ 47.50 *

Delves into two controversies from the French archaeological world to illuminate the tension between the discipline's scientific ambitions and its hunger for media attention. For well over a century, from Heinrich Schliemann's sensational discoveries at Troy in the 1880s, through the Tutankhamun excavations of the 1920s, to the recent LIDAR-aided uncovering of lost Maya cities, archaeology has made headlines. In this new history of archaeology and its archival traces, Daniel J. Sherman treats the friction between science and spectacle as constitutive of the field. By exploring two long-running controversies that roiled the French archaeological world and its wider public in the first third of the twentieth century, he gives the science/media relationship a unique place in the history of archaeology-and its present. The first controversy involves a dispute over the conduct of excavations at Carthage in Tunisia, then under French colonial rule. In the second, accusations of forgery clouded what seemed to be a stunning Neolithic find at a hamlet called Glozel, in the Auvergne region in central France. The affair divided the scholarly community and attracted enormous media attention across Europe and North America. Both controversies occurred at a transitional moment between what has been called the heroic age of archaeology, dominated by explorers and adventurers with little specialized training, and the beginnings of its professionalization. As Sherman shows, the two affairs put the methods, procedures, and networks of archaeology in the spotlight and profoundly shaped its history.

Becker, Ralph M. / Costa, Antonio Luz et al. (eds.), Global Perspectives on Animism and Autonomous Technologies. (Artificial Intelligence, Simulation and Society) 230 pp. 2025:6 (Springer, GW) <747-142>
ISBN 978-3-031-88208-1 hard ¥32,952.- (税込) EUR 139.99

This volume provides a timely analysis of the emerging phenomenon of autonomous technology, a topic of intense contemporary importance given the transformative potential and risks posed by rapidly developing AI systems. It utilizes a unique approach by focusing on the ways that these technologies can be understood via the lens of animism and 'techno-animism,' a term that denotes how society and individual users are attributing life-like properties - agency, intention, and will - to technological systems. The volume further interrogates and critiques the ways that autonomous technologies are often intentionally designed to promote socioemotional connections with users. The volume investigates such technologies through a variety of global settings and interdisciplinary lenses. With contributions from scholars across anthropology, sociology, communication studies, law, and design theory, it offers a range of perspectives on how autonomous technologies are reshaping cultural and social institutions worldwide. Furthermore, this collection addresses the urgent need for concrete research on the readiness of legal and social frameworks to incorporate autonomous technologies. With the imminent widespread integration of autonomous technologies into our everyday lives, the volume provides a critical examination of human-technology interaction and its immediate implications, guiding readers through the intricate web of digital interconnectedness that is on course to define the future of humanity.
