- Abstract
"Inhabited: Wildness and the Vitality of the Land" by Phillip Vannini and April Vannini is a book that explores the concept of inhabiting a place and the relationships between humans and the natural world. The authors challenge traditional notions of human ownership and control, aiming to subvert colonialism and social hierarchies. The book draws on various academic disciplines, including geography, cultural studies, anthropology, and sociology of science. Through ethnographic research and interviews, the authors examine the Canadian wilderness and emphasize the vitality and interconnectedness of nonhuman beings and their environments. The book takes a posthumanist perspective and uses a combination of text, photography, and film to provide a multidimensional understanding of the places and people studied. The authors highlight the importance of recognizing and respecting the diverse perspectives and voices of all beings in order to foster a more inclusive and sustainable relationship with the natural world.
