Temporality and materiality

The affective turn in cultural and social sciences has brought to light perspectives through presence and implicit knowledge theories that reveal social and cultural phenomena in their temporal structure and material composition: How do temporal orders translate into social and cultural patterns or materialities? And which materialities constitute social and cultural presences? How do temporality and materiality relate to each other, and why are they particularly relevant for empirical research and theory formation in cultural and social sciences? This volume addresses these questions and gathers contributions that engage with the interplay of temporality and performativity, cultural theories of (non-)presence, and materiality from an interdisciplinary perspective.
