The iconoclastic Brazilian anthropologist and theoretician Eduardo Viveiros de Castro, well known in his discipline for helping initiate its "ontological turn," offers a vision of anthropology as "the practice of the permanent decolonization of thought." After showing that Amazonian and other Amerindian groups inhabit a radically different conceptual universe than ours--in which nature and culture, human and nonhuman, subject and object are conceived in terms that reverse our own--he presents the case for anthropology as the study of such "other" metaphysical schemes, and as the corresponding critique of the concepts imposed on them by the human sciences. Along the way, he spells out the consequences of this anthropology for thinking in general via a major reassessment of the work of Claude Lévi-Strauss, arguments for the continued relevance of Deleuze and Guattari, dialogues with the work of Philippe Descola, Bruno Latour, and Marilyn Strathern, and inventive treatments of problems of ontology, translation, and transformation. Bold, unexpected, and profound, Cannibal Metaphysics is one of the chief works marking anthropology's current return to the theoretical center stage.… (meer)

os dois piores livros que li em 2016 foram metafísicas canibais, de eduardo viveiros de castro, e synthethic philosophy of contemporary mathematics, de fernando zalamea. ambos falam, de um ponto de vista filosófico, sobre recentes avanços em certa área: antropologia e matemática. mas exigem do leitor um conhecimento vasto nessas especificidades, bastante acadêmico (de tipos de correntes e operações), ainda mais por justamente não se aterem a explorar de fato nenhum exemplo específico destas (do qual o leitor poderia obter informações e fazer inferências). enquanto metafísicas leva ao pé da letra seu prefácio, que diz tratar-se de um livro vago e excessivamente geral, como um rascunho de um livro não-escrito, synthetic parece um enorme resumo criptografado do trabalho do próprio autor, usando uma quantidade enorme de conceitos que aparecem como um encantamente mágico para aí existe novidade. de modo que, adicionalmente, mesmo tendo interesse pelos assuntos tratados, devo dizer que o de zalamea é incompreensível, com quase 400 páginas que soam exotéricas nível “hegel para desavisados”, e que levam o leitor a deslizar de palavra a outra, sem com isso obter quase nenhum sentido das frases. de castro, por outro lado, soa por vezes como um sermão professoral, em que nomes de correntes, operações e metodologias passam rapidamente, dando a impressão de que o leitor deveria estar inteirado inclusive das picuinhas universitárias entre profissionais de inclinações diversas. se são livros para leigos, o são no pior sentido: como alguém diz de um quadro a um não conhecedor de arte: não se preocupe, é muito bonito.
