In This Groundbreaking Interdisciplinary Study About Conceptual Origins, Maxine Sheetsjohnstone Shows That There Is An Indissoluble Bond Between Hominid Thinking And Hominid Evolution, A Bond Cemented By The Living Body. Her Thesis Is Concretely Illustrated In Eight Paleoanthropological Case Studies Ranging From Toolusing/Toolmaking To Counting, Sexuality, Representation, Language, Death, And Cave Art. In Each Case, Evidence Is Brought Forward That Shows How Thinking Is Modeled On The Bodyspecifically, How Concepts Are Generated By Animate Form And The Tactilekinesthetic Experience.Later Chapters Critically Examine Key Theoretical And Methodological Issues Posed By The Thesis, Sheetsjohnstone Demonstrates In Detail How And Why A Corporeal Turn In Philosophy And The Human Sciences Can Yield Insights No Less Extraordinary Than Those Produced By The Linguistic Turn. In Confronting The Currently Popular Doctrine Of Cultural Relativism And The Classic Western Metaphysical Dualism Of Mind And Body, She Shows How Pancultural Invariants Of Human Bodily Life Have Been Discounted And How The Body Itself Has Not Been Given Its Due. By A Precise Exposition Of How A Fullscale Hermeneutics And A Genetic Phenomenology May Be Carried Out With Respect To Conceptual Origins, She Shows How Methodological Issues Are Successfully Resolved.
