Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume launches a new, eight-volume series entitled Theatrum Scientiarum on the history of science and the media which has arisen from the work of the Berlin special research project on 'Performative Cultures' under the aegis of the Theatre Studies Department of the Free University. The volume examines the role of space in the constitution of knowledge in the early modern age. 'Kunstkammern' (art and curiosities cabinets), laboratories and stages arose in the 17th century as instruments of research and representation.

Not only is an account given of the mutual architectural and intellectual influence of the spaces of knowledge and the performance spaces of art; they are also analyzed to ascertain what was possible in them and through them. This volume is the English translation of Kunstkammer, Laboratorium, Bühne (de Gruyter, Berlin, 2003).; Der von renommierten Wissenschaftlern verfasste Band untersucht die Rolle des Raumes bei der Konstituierung von Wissen in der Frühen Neuzeit. Kunstkammern, Laboratorien und Bühnen entstehen im 17. Jahrhundert als Instrumente der Forschung und der Repräsentation. Die Räume des Wissens und die Schauplätze der Kunst werden nicht nur in ihrer gegenseitigen architektur- und wissenschaftsgeschichtlichen Beeinflussung untersucht; sie werden auch hinsichtlich dessen, was in ihnen und durch sie möglich wurde, analysiert.…
