Product Description

Edward Casey offers a philosophical history of the evolving conceptualizations of place and space in Western thought. Not merely a presentation of the ideas of other philosophers, this text is sensitive to silences, absences and missed opportunities in the complex history of philosophical approaches to space and place. A central theme is the increasing neglect of place in favour of space from the 7th century AD onward, amounting to the virtual exclusion of place by the end of the 18th century.
