Konstellationen – Versuchsanordnungen des Schreibens

This volume assembles contributions touching on diverse thought-images of constellations: in thinking with Walter Benjamin of another mode of reading, with Adorno of a mode that shapes the not-yet-thought into a readable figure or with Foucault on the opening of a coherent area of description for new constellations of knowledge. The spectrum of these reflections on constellations does not emanate from a "system", but leaves the things disparately. The contributors describe constellations in their processual movement.
