Performative Strategies of Resonance: Texts, Music, and Image-Objects in Cultural Practices - Neuware

This volume explores how literature, visual art, music, and religious practices can function as counterparts in resonant self-world relations. Drawing on Hartmut Rosa's theory of resonance, the contributions understand resonance as dialogical, transformative, and fundamentally unavailable to full control. Combining resonance theory with performativity studies, the book approaches aesthetic and religious sources not merely as carriers of meaning but as performative offerings that may enable affective engagement and transformation. Interdisciplinary case studies from antiquity to modernity illus trate how resonance is prepared, intensified, or disrupted through narrative, aesthetic, and cultural practices.With contributions byMario Baumann | Ursula Gärtner | Markus Hafner | Veronika Kolomaznik | Hartmut Rosa | Verena Weidner | Franz WinterThis title is also available as open access.
