Young people imagine, perceive, experience, talk about, use, and produce space in a wide variety of ways. In doing so, they acquire and produce stocks of spatial knowledge. A quite dynamic and ever-changing process by nature, young people's production and acquisition of spatial knowledge are susceptible to many kinds of conditions--from those that shape their everyday routines to those that constitute historical turning points. Against this backdrop and drawing on a qualitative metaanalysis, the authors set out to discover what changes the spatial knowledge of young people has undergone during the past five decades. To that end, sixty published studies were sampled, analyzed, and synthesized to offer a meta-interpretation in terms of both the evolution of young people's spatial knowledge and the refiguration of spaces. As such, this book will appeal to scholars conducting spatial research on childhood and youth as well as scholars interested in urban studies from diverse disciplines such as sociology, anthropology, geography, architecture, urban planning, and design.

The study of medieval and early modern geographic space, literary cartography, and spatial thinking at a time of rapid digitization in the Humanities offers new ways to investigate spatial knowledge and world perceptions in pre-modern societies. Digitization of cultural heritage collections, open source databases, and interactive resources utilizing a rich variety of source materials-place names, early modern cadastral maps, medieval literature and art, Viking Age and medieval runic inscriptions-provides opportunities to re-think traditional lines of research on spatiality and worldviews, encourage innovation in methodology, and engage critically with digital outcomes. In this book, Nordic scholars of philology, onomastics, history, geography, literary studies, and digital humanities examine multiple aspects of ten large- and small-scale digital spatial infrastructures from the early stages of development to the practical applications of digital tools for studying spatial thinking and knowledge in pre-modern sources and societies.

Architecture and Modern Literature explores the representation and interpretation of architectural space in modern literature from the early nineteenth century to the present, with the aim of showing how literary production and architectural construction are related as cultural forms in the historical context of modernity. In addressing this subject, it also examines the larger questions of the relation between literature and architecture and the extent to which these two arts define one another in the social and philosophical contexts of modernity. Architecture and Modern Literature will serve as a foundational introduction to the emerging interdisciplinary study of architecture and literature.

Unter dem Schlagwort des spatial turn erlebt 'Raum' gegenwärtig eine ungeahnte Renaissance in der Geschichtswissenschaft. Was dort schnell zur Mode geworden ist, beschäftigt andere Disziplinen indes schon seit langem. Der interdisziplinär angelegte Band bereitet daher Theorie- und Wissensangebote aus verschiedenen Nachbardisziplinen für historiographische Zwecke auf und lotet zugleich anhand von Fallstudien das Verhältnis von Raum und Kommunikation im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert aus. Dabei steht nichts weniger als die Eignung von Raum als Zentralkategorie für eine neu zu konzipierende Kommunikationsgeschichte zur Disposition. »All jenen, die sich für eine fruchtbare Verbindung von Geschichte und Geopraphie interessieren, sei dieser Sammelband wärmstens empfohlen.« Riccardo Bavaj, Westfälische Forschungen, 57 (2007) »So liegt hier ein Buch vor, das es auf faszinierende Weise schafft, den Raumbegriff davor zu bewahren substanzlose Modeerscheinung zu sein und zeigt, wie viele überaus spannende und wichtige neue Fragen unentdeckt in oft betrachteten Themen warten und durch eine Justierung des Blickwinkels sichtbar werden. Ein großes, ein wichtiges Buch.« Christian Schwarzenegger, medien & zeit, 3 (2005) »Der Sammelband ist ein weiterer eindringlicher Aufruf, Raum als historische Kategorie nun endlich ernsthaft in die Praxis einzubinden [...]. Es ist vorbildlich, wie die Beiträge die sukzessive Selbstzweckwerdung beider Ordnungen während der ›massenmedialen Sattelzeit‹ zwischen 1880 und 1960 herausstellen und dabei betont auf Interdisziplinarität setzen. Man kann nur hoffen, daß dieser innovative Zugang nicht erneut auf taube Ohren stößt.« Roland Cvetkovski, Das Historisch-Politische Buch, 54/5 (2006) »Der Band gehört [...] zu den außergewöhnlichen und herausragenden Publikationen, von denen der aktuelle Raumdiskurs leider nicht sehr viele zu bieten hat.« Ulrike Jureit, H-Soz-u-Kult, 09.03.2006 Besprochen in: Literaturen, 11 (2005)
