| book description |

The essays gathered in this volume illuminate aspects of space and place in modern German history. Drawing from the fields of Art History, Architectural History, and German Studies, the chapters are built upon close analysis of specific cultural artifacts—photographs, murals, buildings, films, installations, mementos—while considering broader political, theoretical, and historical contexts. Even as the editors offer foundational definitions, the essays in the collection make clear that space and place are never neutral or stable; they slip and overlap in practice. Spaces and places are shaped by power, ideology, and memory but are open to appropriation, re-signification, and repair. Contributors include Peter Chametzky, S.E. Eisterer, Nathan Goldberg, Kevina King, Christine Mehring, André Patrão, Jeffrey Saletnik, and Robin Schuldenfrei.
