David K. Lewis

    28 de septiembre de 1941 – 14 de octubre de 2001

    David Kellogg Lewis fue un influyente filósofo del siglo XX cuyo trabajo impactó profundamente la filosofía del lenguaje, la mente, la metafísica, la epistemología y la lógica. Es quizás mejor conocido por su controvertida postura del realismo modal: la idea de que existen infinitos universos paralelos, cada uno concreto y causalmente aislado, siendo el nuestro solo uno de ellos. Estos universos sirven como mundos posibles en el análisis de la necesidad y la posibilidad. El legado de Lewis radica en su pensamiento original y su profunda exploración de la naturaleza de la realidad.

      The universality of shamanistic power and practice among today's hunter-gatherers - along with the similarity of rock art found in varied sites around the world - has led Jean Clottes and David Lewis-Williams to suggest in this new book that the great art of paleolithic caves can be best understood through the lens of shamanism. Indeed, this is not a monograph on a particular site, but a general discussion of the art of painted caves and their shamanistic meaning. Through the authors' revealing words and the abundant full-color illustrations, we follow shamans into their trance states, and we watch as they carefully paint and engrave on rock surfaces the shapes of animals whose power they seek. As we learn how drawings and rituals were likely modes of shamanistic contact, we understand best the actions, accomplishments, and traces left behind by prehistoric shamans
