Zusammenfassung
Inspiriert von kosmologischen Darstellungen und Weltkarten aus dem mittelalterlichen und frühneuzeitlichen Europa, befasst sich dieses Buch mit der Bedeutung des Raums für die Religionswissenschaft und verwandte Disziplinen. Wie wird religiöse Pluralität räumlich gestaltet? Welche Visionen, Vorstellungen und Utopien werden an Orten zum Ausdruck gebracht, die Pluralität sichtbar und erlebbar machen? Solche Fragen führen die Leserinnen und Leser durch eine imaginäre Reise von den Gipfeln der Alpen bis zu unterirdischen Tunneln, von viktorianischen Begräbnisstätten bis zu digitalen Gedenkstätten, vorbei an einzigartiger urbaner Architektur, Museen und interaktiven Ausstellungen. Dieser Titel erscheint auch Open Access.
