The struggle to create and sustain meaning in our everyday lives is
fought using cultural ingredients to spin the webs of meaning that
keep us going. To help reveal the complexity and intricacy of the
webs of meaning in which they are suspended, Tom Inglis interviewed
one-hundred people in their native home of Ireland to discover what
was most important and meaningful for them in their lives. Inglis
believes language is a medium: there is never an exact
correspondence between what is said and what is felt and
understood. Using a variety of theoretical lenses developed within
sociology and anthropology, Inglis places their lives within the
context of Ireland's social and cultural transformations, and of
longer-term processes of change such as increased globalisation,
individualisation, and informalisation.
