Smell as a Way of Thinking About the World: An Anthropology

Le Breton, David

Pages: 3 –19

[Smell is a moral indicator in our societies. Mingling with the other senses, it is essential in our social relationships. It is often a measure of the quality of our attention to others. It conditions love and hatred, often in a purely fantastical way. It is at the heart of racism. A person who...

The Smells of Caste – Body, Self and Politics

Kapoor, Shivani

Pages: 21 –34

[Odours, because of their proximity to bodies and because of their surreptitious nature, can be very potent sources of understanding how power is organised and sustained. Caste, a system of hierarchical arrangements, can also be thought of as a system of sensory ordering of bodies, spaces, and...

Not Only Olfaction: The Nose, Protagonist of the Diversity and Individuality of the Human Face

Cilli, Elisabetta; Gruppioni, Giorgio

Pages: 35 –52

[Besides being involved in respiratory and olfactory functions, the human nose presents the peculiar morphological and functional characteristics that have emerged during the evolution of the face and neural skull. In particular, following the nasalization process, i.e., the formation of the...

Being and Making the Olfactory Self. Lessons from Contemporary Artistic Practices

Diaconu, Madalina

Pages: 55 –73

[Contemporary smelly artworks, installations and “scent sculptures” endorse philosophical and anthropological theories about the construction of identity as a relation to oneself and the others through consciousness and memory (John Locke), as a multi-staged process of social exchange (George H....

Sniffing Atmospheres. Observations on Olfactory Being-In-The-World

Griffero, Tonino

Pages: 75 –90

[The paper considers the phenomenological and atmospherological significance of smell perception as a form of felt-bodily attunement and resonance. Exerting a strong but underestimated influence over the way people feel, smell, in fact, needs to be addressed as an atmosphere, that is as an...

Smell as a Carrier of Values

Jaquet, Chantal

Pages: 91 –106

[In everyday language, whether the other smells good or bad becomes an expression of a close or, on the contrary, distant relationship, and implies a value judgment on his entire being. But can we consider smell to be a carrier of ethical or aesthetical norms that gives rise to a philosophy of...

What a Good Nose Knows. The Role of Smell in the Appreciation of Food

Cavalieri, Rosalia

Pages: 109 –116

[The sense of smell, together with taste, is the most marginalized in the Western philosophical tradition. Actually, it plays a decisive role in many of our activities and social and affective relationships, and, in particular, in one of our most ordinary and meaningful behaviours: the evaluation...

Towards a Situated Cognitive Approach of Olfactory experiences and Languages

Dubois, Danièle

Pages: 117 –139

[In a series of investigations in everyday life situations in different cultures and languages, in expert professional practices (of perfumers) as well as in experimental conditions, we developed a situated cognitive approach of olfactory experience departing from the canonical cognitive model of...

The Psychology of the Appreciation of Olfactory Beauty

Diessner, Rhett

Pages: 141 –154

[It is controversial among philosophers and psychologists whether or not it is appropriate to label a scent as beautiful. However, based on the concept that a beautiful stimulus requires structure, it is demonstrated that scent experiences have several kinds of structure, and thus are bona fide...

Crossmodal Correspondences in Art and Science: Odours, Poetry, and Music

Di Stefano, Nicola; Murari, Maddalena; Spence, Charles

Pages: 155 –189

[Odour-sound correspondences provide some of the most fascinating and intriguing examples of crossmodal associations, in part, because it is unclear from where exactly they originate. Although frequently used as similes, or figures of speech, in both literature and poetry, such smell-sound...
