THULE på tidens rand

Mammoth book by professor in anthropology Kirsten Hastrup. 

 

A great and beautiful book where text and images provide a vivid portrait of Thule through eight chapters: The place. The people. Isen. The catch. Technology. The colony. Invasion. Time. The 500 page book is illustrated through the photography of Carsten Egevang.

​

Over eight years, the anthropologist Kirsten Hastrup regularly visited Thule to understand the world as it looks away. Meetings and conversations with the people who live there, has been supplemented by the reading of the long and rich history. The result is this portrait of Thule as a community with deep roots, which is currently facing severe challenges.
