Heterotopická jinočasovost pevnostního města Josefov: teoretické a výzkumné podněty

Abstract

This article is an attempt to present further results in the author’s continuing qualitative field work among the historical war re-enactment societies of the fortress towns of Josefstadt and Theresienstadt (from 2010). Michael Foucaults Heterotopic theory of places is used to shed light on a wide range of ritualised social behaviour, centred around key symbols from the monarchical military culture of the Enlightenment. New categories for the analysis of local context have been created which are clearly compatible with Braudel’s theory of longue-duree, that is isophenomenological historic-social objects, maintaining and transferring the original meaning of heterotopic social-disciplination.
