چکیده
`̀ In this chapter we argue that many current spatial metaphors, such as `positionality', `locality', `grounding', `displacement', `territory', `nomadism', and so forth require urgent critical scrutiny. The appeal of these spatial metaphors lies precisely in the new meaning they impart, but it is increasingly evident that these metaphors depend overwhelmingly on a very specific and contested conception of space and that they embody often unintended political conception.'' Smith and Katz (1993, page 68)

They sought to reconcile the seemingly mutually exclusive issues associated with abstraction in art. Som...

A grid of vertical and horizontal lines, each composed of light and dark squares, is moved rigidly at 458 to the vertical on a gray surround. When the luminance of the background is set midway between the luminances of the light and dark squares, the squares appear to race along the lines even though they are actually `painted' on the lines. The effect arises from the unequal apparent speeds of...
