| Popis: | The relations between texts and the world are at the forefront of cultural geography. Along with the cultural and linguistic turns in geography, the aims of searching for meanings have been problematized, and the awareness of the complicated nature of the textures of place has at the same time been widened. What does it mean if the meanings of place are interpreted as becoming instead of being, if feeling is emphasized instead of seeing, and if there still remain nondiscursive elements that disrupt the supposed order in writing places? The aims of this article are to consider the current discussions on the textuality of place and to give some openings for writing places and understanding the limits of that writing. These questions are connected here to the deconstructive and humanistic efforts to write places by inhabiting them or by crossing their discursive boundaries. |
