The Erfurt RaumZeit-Forschung announces an international conference on urban co-temporalities together with the Kolleg-Forschungsgruppe "Religion and Urbanity" (FOR 2779). The conference will take place from February 21 to 23, 2024 at the University of Erfurt and deals with multiple temporalities in an urban environment that seem to coexist.

Urban Co-Temporalities

The conference focuses on multiple temporalities within an urban environment that appear to coexist. It investigates the question of co-temporalities in the urban setting and asks whether such a concept could prove useful for analysing the connectivity between co-extensive spaces. In 2003, the related concept co-spatiality was introduced by the French geographer Jacques Lévy to describe space in terms of multiple layers. Lévy outlined a specific relation between spaces and the idea of interspatiality, a space of overlapping realities. Since then co-spatiality has received significant attention within the fields of social geography, spatial sociology, and the history of urban ways of life.

Within these same fields, a notion of cotemporalities has not yet been sufficiently theorized. The present conference aims to fill this gap by developing the idea of multiple strata or layers of temporalities co-existing, and contesting, within urban space. Co temporalities are located; they must take place. The goal is therefore to seek an understanding of co-temporalities of pasts, presents and futures coexisting in a single urban space, and how different accounts of time and history occupy the same space.

The conference is jointly organised by the Centre for Advanced Studies in the Humanities and Social Sciences “Religion & Urbanity” (FOR 2779) and the SpatioTemporality group at the University of Erfurt.
