Tamen shows how inanimate objects take on life through interpretation—notably as they are collected and housed in museums. He claims that an object becomes interpretable only in the context of a “society of friends.” Thus, he suggests, our tendency as humans to interpret the phenomenal world gives objects both a life and a society.
