Synopsis

This book offers an anthropological and historical perspective on home. Beginning with a vision of modernity as characterised by both spiralling liminality and an ongoing quest for belonging, it plumbs the roots of western civilisation and assembles a wide body of comparative evidence to illuminate the foundations of a sense of home.
