Proximity as Method
Concepts for Coexistence in the Global Past and Present
About this book
This book examines proximity as a benchmarked concept that can be deployed across a range of humanities disciplines to rethink the ways in which existences in the world are always already coexistences – and to parse the heuristic, ethical, epistemological, praxeological consequences of this recognition.
The volume:
- Brings together diverse theoretical approaches and utilizes a range of methodological instruments – conceptual, textual-analytic (whether in the realm of literary or religious studies, or theology or law), archival, digital, sociological or politological;
- Includes empirical case-studies that allow calibrated and scaled exemplifications;
- Launches forays onto unexplored conceptual terrain, or call into question hallowed truths of scholarly procedure.
The volume will be essential reading for students and early researchers in the social sciences and the humanities.
