The edited volume offers an innovative platform for an interdisciplinary and holistic discussion of different questions on the topic of cultural formations in various humanistic research fields. The content is broad, ranging from classical historical and archaeological to philosophical-sociological and even theological aspects. Topics include discussions and case studies from cultural and visual studies, cultural heritage studies, history, philosophy, theology, critical media studies, sociology, political and cultural history, political anthropology and studies of everyday life. The diversity of topics demonstrates the complexity of considerations about cultural formations in practice, which are essential for any thematization of relationships among people and their interactions on one side and their conceptions on the other.
