Der französische Philosoph und Soziologe Henri Lefebvre (1901-1991) gilt als einer der Vordenker des so genannten spatial turn. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes untersuchen sein Werk aus literaturwissenschaftlicher, historischer, philosophischer, soziologischer und ethnologischer Perspektive mit Blick auf die praktische Anwendbarkeit der Theorien. The articles take a decidedly interdisciplinary look at the opus of the French philosopher, sociologist and pioneer of spatial analysis Henri Lefebvre (1901-1991). His works are reflected upon from theoretical and practical perspectives by authors from various fields (literature, history, philosophy, sociology, ethnology) closely examining text references from Lefebvre.

In recent political and constitutional history, scholars seldom specify how and why they use the concept of territory. In research on state formation processes and nation building, for instance, the term mostly designates an enclosed geographical area ruled by a central government. Inspired by ideas from political geographers, this book explores the layered and constantly changing meanings of territory in late medieval and early modern Europe before cartography and state formation turned boundaries and territories into more fixed (but still changeable) geographical entities. Its central thesis is that analysing the notion of territory in a premodern setting involves analysing territorial practices: practices that relate people and power to space(s). The book not only examines the construction and spatial structure of premodern territories but also explores their perception and representation through the use of a broad range of sources: from administrative texts to maps, from stained glass windows to chronicles.

In the wake of the spatial and affective turns in Literary Studies in general, and the study of Jewish literatures in particular, this volume shifts focus from the extensity of exile and return to the intensities of sense of place and belonging across a moving landscape of 20th and 20st century literatures, Jewish and other. It brings together contemporary writers and literary scholars who collectively map these intensities onto a bodily word world in transit and textures of habitable, readable space as passage.Works by Hélène Cixous, Cécile Wajsbrot, Alex Epstein, Almog Behar, and Svetlana Boym explore sites made up of layers of passages, taking configurations of sayability and readability as forms, poetic and political, of inhabiting the material world. The contributions by literary scholars explore the theoretical potential of a mapping of such sites in studies of modalities of belonging and unbelonging in modern and contemporary works of literature.The volume collects a collaborative investigation of the exigencies and potentialities of sense of place and belonging through literature, Jewish and other. It offers a literary perspective on current debates in a variety of fields, including literary criticism, human geography, architectural theory, and translation studies.

This edited volume presents theoretical concepts of space from disciplines such as philosophy, literary studies, cultural studies and social sciences by applying them to one literary text: Franz Kafka's "Der Bau". Theoretical basics of current spatial theories are introduced and compared, and their usefulness in relation to literary texts is reflected upon critically. This volume functions as a companion to current debates on the cultural production of space, while at the same time delivering profound contributions to research on Kafka's works.

Forschung zu "Rechtsräumen" markiert eine Schnittstelle zwischen Rechtsgeschichte und Kulturwissenschaften. Es werden die dynamischen Veränderungen von rechtlichen Vorschriften und Praktiken, aber auch von religiösen, weltlichen oder technischen und ökonomischen Handlungsweisen analysiert, denen sie bei ihrer räumlichen, sprachlichen sowie kulturellen Übertragung ausgesetzt sind.

Jetzt zugänglich unter SSRN: URL: http://ssrn.com/abstract=3493150 Research on “legal realms” constitutes an interface between legal history and the cultural sciences. The analysis addresses dynamic changes in legal regulations and practices along with religious, secular, technological, and economic ways of action that are predicated on geographical, linguistic, and cultural transmission.
