Introduction to the Sociology of the Imagination

This book presents imaginal studies and its founder, Gilbert Durand, as well as the founders of interpretive sociology and social phenomenology, such as Weber, Simmel, and Schutz, and ethnomethodology. It then moves on to developing the theoretical framework for the sociology of everyday life and its potential implications for field researchers, by explaining the major concepts formulated by Michel Maffesoli.
