Despite the wide interest in material culture, art, and aesthetics,
few studies have considered them in light of the importance of the
social imagination - the complex ways in which we conceptualize our
social surroundings. This collection engages the "material turn" in
the arts, humanities, and social sciences through a range of
original contributions on creativity in diverse global and
contemporary social settings. The authors engage with everyday
objects, art, rituals, and ethnographic exhibitions to analyze the
relationship between material culture and the social imagination.
What results is a better understanding of how the material embodies
and influences our idea of the social world.
