Abstract

Die Monografie stellt sich der Herausforderungen des „global turns“ in den Geisteswissenschaften aus der Perspektive der Kunstgeschichte. Eine globale Kunstgeschichte, so argumentiert sie, muss weder der Logik ökonomischer Globalisierung folgen, noch muss sie darauf abzielen, die gesamte Welt allumfassend zu erzählen. Stattdessen zieht sie eine Theorie der Transkulturation heran, um die Schlüsselmomente einer Kunstgeschichte zu erkunden, die nicht länger über eine oberflächliche Globalität erreicht werden kann. Wie kann die kunsthistorische Analyse Beziehungen von Konnektivität theoretisieren, die Kulturen und Regionen über Entfernungen hinweg gekennzeichnet haben? Wie kann sie auf sinnvolle Weise Fragen der Kommensurabilität oder deren Abwesenheit unter Kulturen behandeln? Durch die Verlagerung des Forschungsschwerpunkts der Untersuchung auf Südasien sollen die fünf Betrachtungen, die das Buch umfasst, intellektuelle Ressourcen und Erkenntnisse regionaler Erfahrungen jenseits von Euro-Amerika in eine global verständliche Analyse überführt werden. The book responds to the challenge of the global turn in the humanities from the perspective of art history. A global art history, it argues, need not follow the logic of economic globalization nor seek to bring the entire world into its fold. Instead, it draws on a theory of transculturation to explore key moments of an art history that can no longer be approached through a facile globalism. How can art historical analysis theorize relationships of connectivity that have characterized cultures and regions across distances? How can it meaningfully handle issues of commensurability or its absence among cultures? By shifting the focus of enquiry to South Asia, the five meditations that make up this book seek to translate intellectual insights of experiences beyond Euro–America into globally intelligible analyses.

Abstract

This book investigates what has constituted notions of "archaeological heritage" from colonial times to the present. It includes case studies of sites in South and Southeast Asia with a special focus on Angkor, Cambodia. The contributions, the subjects of which range from architectural and intellectual history to historic preservation and restoration, evaluate historical processes spanning two centuries which saw the imagination and production of "dead archaeological ruins" by often overlooking living local, social, and ritual forms of usage on site. Case studies from computational modelling in archaeology discuss a comparable paradigmatic change from a mere simulation of supposedly dead archaeological building material to an increasing appreciation and scientific incorporation of the knowledge of local stakeholders. This book seeks to bring these different approaches from the humanities and engineering sciences into a trans-disciplinary discussion.

Abstract

The volume examines the mutually constitutive relationship between the materiality of objects and their aesthetic meanings. Its approach connects material culture with art history, curation, technologies and practices of making. A central dimension of the case studies collected here is the mobility of objects between Europe and China and the transformations that unfold as a result of their transcultural lives. Many of the objects studied here are relatively unknown or understudied. The stories they recount suggest new ways of thinking about space, cultural geographies and the complex and often contradictory association of power and culture. These studies of transcultural objects can suggest pathways for museum experts by uncovering the multi-layered identities and temporalities of objects that can no longer be labelled as located in single regions. It is also addressed to students of art history, of European and Chinese studies and scholars of consumer culture. « This eagerly awaited volume offers deep and extensive insights into the fast-growing field of material culture studies. Its fresh approach to Eurasian objects and materialities will serve as useful reading for all scholars interested in transcultural and global studies. A very helpful introductory essay. » Sabine du Crest, University of Bordeaux Montaigne, Former Fellow, The Harvard University Center for Italian Renaissance Studies. .

Abstract

Studies on architecture in South Asia continue to ignore women in canonical histories of the discipline. This book attempts to recover the stories of the women architects whose careers nearly parallel the development of modernism in colonial and postcolonial India. Writing their experiences into the narrative of mainstream architectural history within the challenge of non-existant archives, it sheds light on seven pioneering women who broke male bastions to go beyond the traditional confines of the era from the 1940s onwards. The author also examines 28 contemporary practices to demonstrate the ways in which architectural modernism in India was shaped by the contribution of women.

Abstract

Seit Ende des europäischen Kolonialprojekts und mit den aktuellen Auswirkungen der Globalisierung ist die eurozentrische und nationalstaatlich orientierte Konzeption von »Kulturerbe« in eine konfliktgeladene Schieflage geraten, die auch die institutionalisierte Denkmalpflege vor neue Herausforderungen stellt. Dieser Band stellt mit Fallbeispielen aus aller Welt die kulturwissenschaftliche Denkfigur der »Transkulturalität« vor, mit der sich neue Zugangsformen zu Kulturerbe ergeben: mit einer Wertschätzung grenzüberschreitender Kontaktzonen, flüchtig-bildhafter Erscheinungsformen, hybrid-ephemerer Materialität und heterogener Identitätskonstruktionen. »Die zahlreichen Impulse, dem globalen verstandenen Themenkreis Kulturerbe und Denkmalpflege einen neuartigen und zeitgenössischen Bezugsrahmen zu unterlegen, bereichern auf anspruchsvolle Weise und entfachen Neugier auf die zu erwartenden wissenschaftlichen und faktischen Konsequenzen.« Tino Mager, sehepunkte, 2 (2014)/www.arthistoricum.net »Insgesamt führen die Beiträge des Sammelbandes eindrücklich vor, dass eine Auseinandersetzung mit den transnationalen und transkulturellen Kontaktzonen, in denen Kulturerbe entsteht, genutzt und verhandelt wird, ein lohnenswertes Unterfangen ist.« Markus Tauschek, Kieler Blätter zur Volkskunde, 45 (2013) Besprochen in: Restaurierung Konservierung Denkmalpflege, 4 (2012) www.german-architects.com, 3 (2013), Ursula Baus Die Denkmalpflege, 71/1 (2013), Dorothee Heinzelmann Stadt und Raum (2013) Revue de l'IFHA, 12 (2013), Hélène Ivanoff NIKE-Bulletin, 1-2 (2014) Volkskunde, 2 (2015), Paul Catteeuw
