Описание: Marcel Jousses anthropology of mimism is a plea for a change of civilization. Our present-day Western civilization has decomposed the human being into a mind-soul-spirit and a body, put writing as the apex of this humans expression, and set this human as the conqueror of his world. Jousse pleads for a threefold re-composition: a human compound, expressing himself as a whole, and in exchange with a cosmos that he mimes and infuses with consciousness. What is needed is an evolution, neither progressive nor regressive, but an evolution in depth, reconnecting the new with the old--in short, coherence. After In the Beginning was Mimism, In Search of Coherence displays another splendid synthesis of Marcel Jousses body of thought and teachings. Professor Sienaert offers us a view of the anthropological law of mimism as a comprehensive unifying theory of human sciences. The Joussian search for more realism is rendered in ethic coherence between human speech and human acts (human sayings and human doings). --Gabriel Bourdin, Instituto de Investigaciones Antropologicas, UNAM-Mexico In Search of Coherence is a milestone in the panorama of studies on oral culture and oral tradition. Its scientific depth and impressive acribia, pervading all the hermeneutic discourse, make Dr. Sienaerts work not only an indispensable epistemological instrument in analyzing Marcel Jousses contribution to the study of oral tradition but also an essential tool in academic teaching. --Francesco Perono Cacciafoco, Nanyang Technological University, School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Division of Linguistics and Multilingual Studies, Singapore The proclamations of Marcel Jousse offered the twentieth century a modern way of understanding the ancient power of oral performance. Edgard Sienaert is his most eloquent translator and insightful interpreter, and in this new book he brings Jousse back to life, showing how we are most finely human when we recognize that style is a permanent and not a temporary virtue, and when we believe in the coherence of movement and metaphor, body and spirit. Those of us who celebrate the humanities should be very grateful to both Marcel Jousse and Edgard Sienaert. --J.
