CARVALHO, Isabel Cristina de Moura  y  STEIL, Carlos Alberto. Dialogue with Tim Ingold. Different contributions in the field of phenomenological anthropology. Tóp. Sem [online]. 2018, n.39, pp.101-124. ISSN 2594-0619.

The paper highlights Tim Ingold’s contribution to an ecological anthropology and to the human sciences, particularly discussing the concepts of perception, body, flesh and landscape, developed in the book “The perception of environment” (2000). We consider Ingold’s later book, Being Alive (2011) as well as Ingold’s own observations on the first version of this paper, presented and discussed at the Culture, Perception and Environment Seminar (2011), where Ingold personally debated articles written in dialogue with his work. In this article, following Tim Ingold, we start from a phenomenological posture and an interdisciplinary dialogue with biology and psychology, to understand the experience common to all living beings, constituted as organisms that, in turn, do not enclose themselves in envelopes specific identities. From these propositions, the possibilities of being in the world are opened and education is evidenced as mobilization of attention, putting in check the theories on the transmission of culture and the human formation based on oppositions such as mind and body, nature and culture. In this way, we are faced with a radical ecological perspective that symmetrically thinks of the place and status of organisms and their agency in the world.
