Description

Works through longstanding concerns of sociology with the qualities of self and sociality, with what it means to live in relation to others. Aims to enhance the productive tension between ways of knowing and ways of living and to teach particular skills in reading, writing and researching. Among the topics considered are ritual, passion, intellectuality, enchantment, estrangement, play, inspiration, sympathy and humility. Among the theorists are Durkheim, Sartre, Bachelard, Simmel and Buber.
