Roczniki Kulturoznawcze 3/2025

We invite you to submit articles to the journal Annals of Cultural Studies (Roczniki Kulturoznawcze KUL) no. 3/2025, the main theme of which will be "Space - shaped, inhabited, appropriated, lost, described, experienced".

Space, as a multidimensional and interdisciplinary concept, is the subject of research and reflection in various fields of science and art. Space is a universal concept that includes both material and immaterial aspects of reality. Depending on the context, it can mean territory, relationship, possibility of action, or even an idea. Its study is crucial for understanding the structure of the world, social life, and human cognition.

Space is an ambiguous and interdisciplinary concept that is used in various fields of science, philosophy, culture, and everyday life. Its meaning varies depending on the context, but generally refers to the relationships between objects, places, people, or ideas within specific dimensions or environments.

We encourage you to submit articles presenting the issue of space in such dimensions as:

• cultural space – symbols, narratives, identities;
• space in the artistic dimension, space of creation, exhibition, interpretation, the inner world of an artistic work in the ideological and symbolic sense
• literary space – the world created in a literary work; the author and their traces of presence in literature, theoretical discourse, era, literary trend
• social space – relationships, tensions, divisions and communities;
• geographical and landscape space – from maps to changing environments;
• natural and ecological space – the role of humans in shaping it;
• garden space – aesthetics, design art, places of contemplation;
• space – its metaphors and concepts in literature, poetry and cultural narratives;
• interpersonal communication space – the importance of distance, closeness and interaction in social relations;
• space in media and technology – digital forms of communication, virtual spaces and their impact on social life.
