The project focuses on the significance of landscape for social history in high modernity. The concept of imaginary landscapes refers to the interplay of the perception of landscape, its medial representation and its physical transformation. The subproject "Landscapes in Motion" illuminates this interrelationship in an inter-systemic comparison of U.S. and German history between the 1920s and 1950s. It explores a quite distinct dimension of this process, tying in with the history of mobility. At issue is the duality of motoring and hiking, of road and wilderness landscapes, for which the United States, with parkway construction and frontier obsession, and the German Reich, with its myths of the Reichsautobahn and "Wanderlust," have proven to be the sites of study par excellence. Motorists and hikers fought over the "right" forms of movement and the "right" nature of the landscapes required for them; the successful symbiosis of nature and technology contrasted with the temporary exit from industrial society into pre-modern, "naturally grown" spaces. They simultaneously fought over cultural chapter, gender roles, forms of subjectivation, and the state of the state, population, and culture as a whole. Yet both sides were responding to the same challenges of the Second Industrialization. They were concerned with the material design of timeless ideal landscapes that supposedly corresponded to the national essence. In addition to landscape architecture in general, the construction of (long-distance) hiking trails, Autobahnen/Parkways, and panoramic roads played a decisive role here. The subproject will shed comparative light on this connection between materiality and discourse.

该项目的重点是景观对于高度现代性社会历史的重要性。想象中的景观的概念是指景观的感知、其媒介表征及其物理转化之间的相互作用。子项目“动态中的风景”通过对 1920 年代和 1950 年代美国和德国历史的系统间比较阐明了这种相互关系。它探索了这一过程的一个非常独特的维度，与流动性的历史相结合。问题在于驾车和徒步旅行、道路和荒野景观的二元性，对于这种二元性，美国的公路建设和对边境的痴迷，以及德意志帝国的帝国高速公路和“旅行癖”的神话，都被证明是最重要的。卓越的学习场所。驾车者和徒步旅行者为“正确”的运动方式和他们所需的景观的“正确”性质而争论不休。自然与技术的成功共生与暂时退出工业社会进入前现代的“自然生长”空间形成鲜明对比。他们同时就文化篇章、性别角色、主体化形式以及国家、人口和整个文化的状况展开斗争。然而，双方都在应对第二次工业化的同样挑战。他们关心的是永恒理想景观的材料设计，据称这些景观符合国粹。除了一般的景观设计之外，（长途）远足步道、高速公路/公园道路和全景道路的建设在这里发挥了决定性作用。该子项目将比较阐明物质性和话语之间的联系。
