Wolfgang Ernst has demonstrated that the knowledge of time-giving
('chrono-poetical') media and their temporal essence enriches the
tradition of philosophical inquiry into the nature of 'time'. This
book, a translated and abridged edition of Ernst's two major
volumes, Chronopoetik and Gleichursprunglichkeit, undertakes this
on three levels: a close analysis of time-critical moments within
media technologies; descriptions of how media temporalities affect
and disrupt the traditional human sense of time; and questioning
the traditional position of media time within cultural history. The
book brings together two fields of inquiry: the technological
analysis of media time processes and the venerable tradition of
philosophical inquiry into the nature of time. Ernst argues that
the scientific inquiry into the nature of time is enriched by the
media-technological context. The book exposes a media theoretical
approach to contemporary media culture that derives from the
combination of philosophical reflection on the essence of
technology and a close analysis of technological devices
themselves. Ultimately Ernst addresses a fundamental concern of
past, contemporary and future media culture: the position of
technology in culture under the focused perspective of its
tempor(e)alities.
