While concepts of Earth have a rich tradition, more recent examples
show a distinct quality: Though ideas of wholeness might still be
related to mythical, religious, or utopian visions of the past,
"Earth" itself has become available as a whole. This raises several
questions: How are the notions of one Earth or our Planet imagined
and distributed? What is the role of cultural imagination and
practices of signification in the imagination of "the Earth"? Which
theoretical models can be used or need to be developed to describe
processes of imagining Planet Earth? This collection invites a wide
range of perspectives from different fields of the Humanities to
explore the means of imagining Earth.
