The Forest & the School - Where to Sit at the Dinner Table?

Edited by writer and visual artist Pedro Neves Marques, The Forest and the School, is the first comprehensive anthology in English about the Brazilian tradition of Antropofagia, an aesthetic movement and South American cosmo-political philosophy. Over 30 contributors from Montaigne to Jarry, are included in this dense softcover reader. Antropofagia refers to the concept of anthropophagy - literally, cannibalism - to call for the transformative digestion of modernity's paradigmatic divides of nature and culture, human and animal, object and subject, labor and technology.
