The volume German Women Writers and the Spatial Turn: New Perspectives engages the analytical category of space and the spatial turn in the context of German women's writing. The collection of essays divides its discussion of spatiality in German literature into sections that reflect privileged sites within the current scholarly debates around space. Essays look to such issues as environmentalism, globalization, migration and immigration, concerns of belonging, points of encounter, spaces and places of (im-)mobility, topographies of departure and arrival, movement, motion, or shifting identities. German Women Writers and the Spatial Turn: New Perspectives continues the challenge to understand the representation of space and place in German language texts by focusing on how spatial theory figures into the realm of feminist thinking and writing. 410 0$aInterdisciplinary German cultural studies ;$vVolume 17. 606 $aGerman literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aGerman literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aSpace perception in literature 606 $aSpace in literature 606 $aPlace (Philosophy) in literature 606 $aCulture in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGerman literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aGerman literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aSpace perception in literature. 615 0$aSpace in literature. 615 0$aPlace (Philosophy) in literature. 615 0$aCulture in literature. 676 $a830.9/38 686 $aGO 12210$2rvk 702 $aDaffner$b Carola 702 $aMuellner$b Beth A.$f1965- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910467287103321 996 $aGerman women writers and the spatial turn$92482791 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05519nam 22008295 450 001 9910457367503321 005 20210113215502.0 010 $a1-283-21113-0 010 $a9786613211132 010 $a0-8122-0066-7 024 7 $a10.9783/9780812200669 035 $a(CKB)2550000000051286 035 $a(OCoLC)645388273 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10491956 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000534192 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11343004 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000534192 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10493983 035 $a(PQKB)10558536 035 $a(DE-B1597)448918 035 $a(OCoLC)979577641 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780812200669 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3441499 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000051286 100 $a20190708d2010 fg 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aAstrofuturism $eScience, Race, and Visions of Utopia in Space /$fDe Witt Douglas Kilgore 210 1$aPhiladelphia : $cUniversity of Pennsylvania Press, $d[2010] 210 4$d©2003 215 $a1 online resource (305 p.) 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 $a0-8122-1847-7 327 $t Frontmatter -- $tContents -- $tIntroduction: The Wonderful Dream -- $t1.

Drawing on the popular science writing and science fiction of an eclectic group of scientists, engineers, and popular writers, De Witt Douglas Kilgore investigates how the American tradition of technological utopianism responded to the political upheavals of the twentieth century.Founded in the imperial politics and utopian schemes of the nineteenth century, astrofuturism envisions outer space as an endless frontier that offers solutions to the economic and political problems that dominate the modern world. Its advocates use the conventions of technological and scientific conquest to consolidate or challenge the racial and gender hierarchies codified in narratives of exploration. Because the icon of space carries both the imperatives of an imperial past and the democratic hopes of its erstwhile subjects, its study exposes the ideals and contradictions endemic to American culture.Kilgore argues that in the decades following the Second World War the subject of race became the most potent signifier of political crisis for the predominantly white and male ranks of astrofuturism. In response to criticism inspired by the civil rights movement and the new left, astrofuturists imagined space frontiers that could extend the reach of the human species and heal its historical wounds. Their work both replicated dominant social presuppositions and supplied the resources necessary for the critical utopian projects that emerged from the antiracist, socialist, and feminist movements of the twentieth century. This survey of diverse bodies of literature conveys the dramatic and creative syntheses that astrofuturism envisions between people and machines, social imperatives and political hope, physical knowledge and technological power. Bringing American studies, utopian literature, popular conceptions of race and gender, and the cultural study of science and technology into dialogue, Astrofuturism will provide scholars of American culture, fans of science fiction, and readers of science writing with fresh perspectives on both canonical and cutting-edge astrofuturist visions. 606 $aSCIENCE$2bisac 606 $aSpace Science$2bisac 606 $aScience fiction, American$xHistory and criticism$zUnited States 606 $aLiterature and science 606 $aLife on other planets in literature 606 $aSpace and time in literature 606 $aAstronautics in literature 606 $aUtopias in literature 606 $aFuture, The, in literature 606 $aRace in literature 606 $aEnglish$2HILCC 606 $aLanguages & Literatures$2HILCC 606 $aAmerican Literature$2HILCC 615 7$aSCIENCE 615 7$aSpace Science 615 0$aScience fiction, American$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aLiterature and science 615 0$aLife on other planets in literature 615 0$aSpace and time in literature 615 0$aAstronautics in literature 615 0$aUtopias in literature 615 0$aFuture, The, in literature 615 0$aRace in literature 615 7$aEnglish 615 7$aLanguages & Literatures 615 7$aAmerican Literature 676 $a813/.08762093299 700 $aKilgore$b De Witt Douglas, $01045343 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457367503321 996 $aAstrofuturism$92471557 997 $aUNINA
