«With imagination "cut adrift", Ingold writes,

“life itself appears diminished.” It “no longer

gives cause for wonder or astonishment.”

In school we are taught “to distrust the sensuous,

to prize intellect over intuition, and to regard the

imagination as an escape from real life rather than

its impulse.»

Emeritus Professor of Social Anthropology]
