Abstract
The article introduces the double loosening of modern ontology, which the authors recognize as a valuable but overly totalizing theoretical tool. The recognition of ontological practices (fishing and nature photography) reveals how they produce not-quite-modern localities. This bottom-up, everyday loosening inspires the authors to make a second loosening – of theoretical models geared at grasping a coherent modernity. The argument thus highlights the discontinuous, patchy, and ambiguous nature of the modern world’s duration. Key-words: ontological practices, ontological anthropology, modern ontology
