            Abstract
            The long history of cosmology did not simply end in the specialised discipline of the physical study of the universe. Rather, the times we live in are characterised by a "cosmological restlessness", which indicates that today central questions about the world and our position in it demand new answers. A look at the history and diversity of cosmology reveals a "form of expression" that is not limited to the function of a worldview (a picture of the world), but can pursue many other purposes and inscribes itself in complicated ways in the intellectual, theoretical, but also political, ethical and practical contexts of its time. This volume portrays this in many case studies, ranging from prehistory to present-day Earth system science.
             
            Die lange Geschichte der Kosmologie mündete nicht einfach in der Spezialdisziplin der physikalischen Lehre vom Universum. Vielmehr ist die Gegenwart von einer „kosmologischen Unruhe“ gekennzeichnet, welche anzeigt, dass heute zentrale Fragen nach der Welt und unserer Stellung in der Welt neue Antworten verlangen. Ein Blick in die Geschichte und Vielfalt der Kosmologie zeigt eine „Ausdrucksform“, die sich nicht auf die Funktion des Weltbildes beschränkt, sondern viele andere Zwecke verfolgen kann und sich auf komplizierte Weise in die intellektuellen, theoretischen, aber auch politischen, ethischen und praktischen Kontexte ihrer Zeit einschreibt. Der vorliegende Band zeichnet dies in vielen Fallstudien nach, die von der Vorgeschichte bis zur heutigen Erdsystemwissenschaft reichen.
