Spurenlesen heiĂt, vergangene Ereignisse zu verstehen, Abwesenheiten zu erfassen, die Gegenwart zu hinterfragen und die mögliche Zukunft zu antizipieren. Spuren finden sich in Sprachen und Ritualen, in Rezepten und Praktiken, in Kunst und Kultur. Wir wollen Spuren und ihren Lesarten nachforschen, denn sie spielen ihre Rolle bei der GrĂŒndung und Legitimation von Gemeinschaften. Unser Ansatz ist transdisziplinĂ€r, daher beinhaltet die Reihe Arbeiten, die sich mit materieller Kultur, Architektur, Kunst, Monumenten, Gegenmonumenten, Texten, Diskursen und Performanzen befassen, und zwar ohne chronologische oder geografische EinschrĂ€nkungen.
Grasping traces means understanding past events, seizing absences, questioning the present, and apprehending the coming of potential futures. Traces are found in languages and rituals, in recipes and practices, in art and culture. We aim to explore such traces and their readings, because they play a role in inventing and authorizing communities. Our approach is a transdisciplinary one. Thus, the series includes texts centered around material culture, architecture, art, monument, counter-monument, discourses, and performances, with no chronological nor geographical limitations.
Saisir les traces, c'est comprendre les événements passés, se confronter aux absences, interroger le présent et appréhender l'avÚnement de futurs potentiels. Les traces se trouvent dans les langues et les rituels, dans les recettes et les pratiques, dans l'art et la culture. Notre objectif est d'explorer ces traces ainsi que leurs différentes lectures, parce que celles-ci jouent un rÎle dans l'invention et la légitimité des communautés. Notre approche est transdisciplinaire; la série publie des textes centrés sur la culture matérielle, l'architecture, l'art, les monuments, les contre-monuments, les discours et les performances, sans limitation chronologique ni géographique.
