9783837680317: Imaginary Negotiations: Virtuality in Premodern Image Spaces (Virtuelle Lebenswelten)

Synopsis

Spaces of negotiation in politics, law, education and administration are shaped through their architectural environment, artworks, or elaborate interior designs as well as rituals, ceremonies and imagination processes. Drawing on art history, legal history, literary studies and artistic research, this volume analyses the virtual potential of various spaces that require a normative framework as well as an imaginary dimension to allow different potential outcomes to be envisaged. The contributions reflect on the dynamics of early modern virtuality and offer insights into collective spaces, such as town halls, churches and courtrooms, as well as virtual environments created through printed images as well as contemporary digital technologies.
