Course Description

Space does not mean a concept that can only be perceived by the senses and mentally understood. The truth of the space, how it?s created, its transformation and the phenomenological-hermeneutical analysis of its transformation also the examination of these discussions in the context of the museum are intented. Emerged in Cartesian thought and prevailed until the 19th century, the distinction between "matter and thought" shaped the dualist character of modern thinking which perceives space and matter independently from thought. In the context of the change that the concept of time and space has undergone, the changes of the idea of space and the mental and social production of the reconstructed space concept, the process of "museum and museology"'s space creation, the contribution of space to the reproduction and a general analysis of its transformative effects are made.
