Cultural Theory and Its Genealogies

The aim of the research group is the analysis of spatial practices and techniques of space production as well as space organization since antiquity. Taking classical antiquity as a starting point, these spatial practices and techniques will be explored with regard to alterations and transformations that gave rise to and resulted in the reorganization and reevaluation of cultural theory. The six research projects of the CSG-II focus on either a corporeal, a social, an agricultural, a metrological or a networked epistemology of space. In doing so, they aim at specific perspectivizations as well as at a historical synthesis of cultural theories.
