What does place mean for human beings?

What does it mean to exist in space? How do we place ourselves not only in physical space, but within the interior landscape of consciousness?

Place Meant

Place Meant is an interdisciplinary exploration of these and related questions, through the lenses of psychoanalysis, sociology, anthropology, geography, folklore, memoir, and the history of ideas.

It will be of interest to anyone who has traveled the earth and pondered their relationship to home, away, and the world at large.
