Beschreibung (Kurztext)
What does Imagination do? How does it affect our reality and the places we experience? Answers from sociology, philosophy, literary and cultural studies.
Beschreibung (Langtext)
The contributors to this volume explore the intertwined relationship of imagining and practicing from different fields of study (sociology, philosophy, literary and cultural studies), complementing practice and theoretical approaches with interdisciplinary insights into the entanglements of doings and imaginations. They build a bridge between sociological research and cultural studies and thus challenge perspectives which characterize imagining as an individual and solitary activity. Rather, imagining is situated and shaped by its placement in specific contexts and communities.
