Response: A comment on "the ontological turn" in Japanese anthropology

Reading these three fascinating pieces may have been responsible for a dream I had (reading a thriller before going to sleep was also responsible, so it was all mixed up with pursuing a murderer in a wild place). I looked down to see that what I had assumed was ordinary vegetation was in fact an extensive meadow of pansies, which were aligned in rows and neatly attached (means not clear) to horizontal strips of wood. The wood was just visible. “Aha,” I thought or spoke in the dream, “that is ontology!” (I realized afterwards that I could not have walked on the meadow because of all the wooden supports, so no doubt I was conveniently hovering over it, and beautiful it looked too. The pansies announced themselves as such to me in the dream.)
