Summary:
"How do we follow affects in places? And how do they follow us? How can rural places be described as "affective places"? Considering local and global transformations and crises, this book examines the "how" of culture in rural areas. It delves into everyday stories and natural-cultural landscapes in three rural regions of Germany. On the basis of concrete places and institutions, traces and practices of cultural education are also followed; it becomes obvious that rural regions are not "Wastelands". They offer a wealth of "affective places" to be experienced and lived out. This "ethnographic collage" brings together vignettes, photo essays and reflections at the interface of affect theory, sensory ethnography, artistic research and feminist new materialism. Digitally available audios and videos add to the picture"-- De Gruyter Brill
Wie Affekten an Orten folgen? Und wie folgen sie uns? Wie werden ländliche Räume beschreibbar? Das Buch fragt vor dem Hintergrund lokaler und globaler Transformationen und Krisen nach dem "Wie" von Kultur auf dem Land. Es taucht ein in alltägliche Geschichten und naturkulturelle Landschaften in drei Regionen Deutschlands. Anhand konkreter Orte und Institutionen werden Spuren und Praktiken kultureller Bildung verfolgt; es wird deutlich: Ländliche Regionen sind keine "Wastelands". Sie bieten eine Überfülle an "Affekträumen", die erlebt und gelebt werden. Die "ethnografische Collage" versammelt Vignetten, Fotoessays und Reflexionen an der Schnittstelle von Affekttheorie, sensorischer Ethnografie, künstlerischer Forschung und feministischem New Materialism. Digital verfügbare Audios und Videos ergänzen das Bild
