The concept of space has become increasingly significant in cultural studies in recent years. Stephan Günzel, a professor of media theory at the Berlin University of the Arts, has compiled the most important texts from Herder, Clausewitz, and Benjamin to Derrida and Agamben, as well as Said and many others in this volume. He introduces the topic in introductory essays for the respective chapters on "Culture," "Medium," "Politics," and "Knowledge.".
