Este trabajo es una reseña de la revisión al libro titulado: Changing Pictures: Rock Art Traditions and Visions in Northern Europe. Autores: Joakim Goldhahn, Ingrid Flugestvedt and Andrew Jones. (Oxbow Books, Oxford, 2010, 272 pp., 159 illustr., pbk, ISBN: 978 1 84217 405 0) The fourteen chapters of this well-edited book have as their primary source the contributions to a workshop held at Linnaeus University, Sweden (formerly University of Kalmar) in October 2008. The contributions of the different authors focus on several aspects concerning the study of rock art images from northernmost Europe. One of the most interesting goals of this book is to appraise some of the current research in the field of rock art in Northern Europe and to present it to an international audience, since most of the scientific output in this research field has been published in Norwegian, Danish, Swedish, Finnish or Russian. This anthology’s declared interest is ‘to explore the relevance of older ideas, such as (…) prehistoric religion (…), ritual performance (…), sympathetic magic, animism and totemism (…), [and] the mindscapes of landscapes (…) from the present “state of the art”, and try to develop a broader and “deeper” understanding of the phenomenon’ (p. 2). As the introductory chapter states, the main themes developed throughout the work are animism, the agency of the rock, picturing as performance, and the significance of the narrative.
