It was suggested that we should also read an archaeological text where Bourdieu's theory has been used. An article by Hodder was suggested but I'm open to anything else. I couldn't download the article (the difference between Jstor and Gale) so go to the e-journals of the library to access it: American Antiquity 2004 (69). January. I. Hodder and C. Cessford. "Daily Practice and Social Meaning at Catalhoyuk".
For anyone who is interested, here is a critique of Bourdieu-ian theory in archaeology by J. Dornan (2002) in Journal of Archaeological Methods and Theory
