Genealogical Knowledge in the Making
Tools, Practices, and Evidence in Early Modern Europe
Inbunden, Engelska, 2019

This book examines how genealogical knowledge was produced in Early Modern Europe. It studies the procedures and difficulties of genealogical research and highlights the many challenges that had to be overcome in the process of establishing family histories. Archives had to be visited, stone inscriptions had to be deciphered, and countless individuals had to be identified. The papers demonstrate that none of these tasks were simple and that the results of the research efforts often remained ambivalent. How early modern genealogists went about studying these questions is investigated here in a comparative perspective that includes cases from Germany, Italy, France, Wales, and beyond.

Zacharias Konrad von Uffenbach (1683-1734) – Patrizier und Bürgermeister in Frankfurt – zählte zu den herausragenden Sammlern und gelehrten Netzwerkern seiner Zeit. Im Laufe seines Lebens erwarb er rund 40.000 Bücher und Handschriften, von denen sich viele heute noch lokalisieren lassen. Ungeachtet der Bekanntheit seines Namens und des außergewöhnlichen Umfangs seiner Sammlung, sind weder der Bestand an sich – Kerne davon befinden sich v.a. in Hamburg, Frankfurt, Gießen und München – noch Uffenbach als Büchersammler und Polyhistor wirklich erforscht. Die Beiträge des Bandes beleuchten das Thema aus der Perspektive der Geschichtsforschung, der Philosophie- und Wissensgeschichte, der Handschriftenkunde, der Kunstgeschichte und der Germanistik. Eingangs werden zeitgenössische Phänomene wie die Entwicklung der Privatbibliothek und das Selbstverständnis des Polyhistors analysiert, gefolgt von Beiträgen speziell zu Uffenbachs Sammlungs- und Wissenskonzeption, zu seinem Netzwerk und seinen Kontakten mit Gelehrten und zum Buchhandel.
Central European Pasts
Old and New in the Intellectual Culture of Habsburg Europe, 1700–1750

Präsentationsvideo (4. Folge der Reihe 'ÖGE18 Update') Anyone wishing to look beyond the paradigm of Western progress needs to understand how it came into being. In the intellectual culture of the 17th and 18th centuries, the competitive comparison of Ancients and Moderns and their respective relations to civilization and barbarism constituted one of the formative discourses. Yet alternative ideas of time and historicity are encountered not only in cultural contexts outside of Europe but also in the largely forgotten professional knowledge of the Old World: Thomism, Peripatetism, moderate forms of criticism, political theory, and legal practice. This book introduces a broad panorama of such intellectual cultures in Central Europe. It situates theological, historical, and philosophical scholarship in its institutional and epistemological environments: the Church, the Holy Roman Empire, and the emerging Habsburg Monarchy. In doing so, it identifies struggles over competing pasts – Christian, ethnic, legal – as the core of those domains' intellectual development.
Johann Friedrich Schannat (1683–1739)
Praktiken historisch-kritischer Gelehrsamkeit im frühen 18. Jahrhundert

Der in Luxemburg geborene Gelehrte Johann Friedrich Schannat (1683-1739) zählte zu den bedeutendsten katholischen Historikern seiner Generation, die im Schatten einer aufgeklärten Geschichtsschreibung bisher nur wenig Beachtung erhielt. Dieser Band untersucht auf Basis seiner Korrespondenz die Vielfalt der Praktiken, die die historisch-kritische Gelehrsamkeit im frühen 18. Jahrhundert charakterisierte. Die Briefe geben Einblick in die Wissenserzeugung des Gelehrten und zeigen eindrücklich, welch zentrale Rolle dabei seinem Netzwerk zukam. Der Aufbau und Erhalt von Kontakten, aber ebenso die Versuche auf ideeller Ebene eine Gemeinschaft herzustellen, müssen als integrale Bestandteile der Gelehrsamkeit verstanden werden, die nur als hochspezialisiertes Gemeinschaftsunternehmen Erfolg haben konnte.

Heirs of Flesh and Paper
A European History of Dynastic Knowledge around 1700
Inbunden, Engelska, 2022
1 022 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
"Heirs of Flesh and Paper" tells the story of early modern dynastic politics through subjects’ practical responses to royal illness, failing princely reproduction, and heirs’ premature deaths. It treats connected dynastic crises between 1699 and 1716 as illustrative for early modern European political regimes in which the rulers’ corporeality defined politics. This political order grappled with the endemic uncertainties induced by dynastic bodies. By following the day-to-day practices of knowledge making in response to the unpredictability of royal health, the book shows how the ruling family’s mortal coils regularly threatened to destabilize the institutionalized legal fiction of kingship. Dynastic politics was not only as a transitory stage of state formation, part of elite cooperation, or a cultural construct. It needs to be approached through everyday practices that put ailing dynastic bodies front and center. In a period of intensifying political planning, it constituted one of the most important sites for changing the political itself.
Between Encyclopedia and Chorography
Defining the Agency of “Cultural Encyclopedias” from a Transcultural Perspective
Inbunden, Engelska, 2022

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
During the early modern period, regional specified compendia – which combine information on local moral and natural history, towns and fortifications with historiography, antiquarianism, images series or maps – gain a new agency in the production of knowledge. Via literary and aesthetic practices, the compilations construct a display of regional specified knowledge. In some cases this display of regional knowledge is presented as a display of a local cultural identity and is linked to early modern practices of comparing and classifying civilizations. At the core of the publication are compendia on the Americas which research has described as chorographies, encyclopeadias or – more recently – 'cultural encyclopaedias'. Studies on Asian and European encyclopeadias, universal histories and chorographies help to contextualize the American examples in the broader field of an early modern and transcultural knowledge production, which inherits and modifies the ancient and medieval tradition.

The volume examines the proliferation of inventorying models and practices as cultural techniques of knowledge organization and production during the long nineteenth century. While inventories are still broadly treated as raw data and unprocessed source materials, the book shows how they function as complex media formats, intersecting and interfering with other material techniques to produce, store, distribute, organize and process cultural information. How do inventories work against and in dialogue with other media of collection, storage and retrieval such as catalogs, indexes, bibliographies, and archives; what new media configurations do techniques of inventorying enable and how, in turn, are such techniques shaped by the media channels and formats they employ; what is at stake in the critical effort of "taking stock", whether as commercial, bureaucratic, literary, historiographical, or scientific operations; finally, what do such operations tell us specifically about the production and circulation of knowledge in the German nineteenth century?

Johann Schilter (1632-1705) und das Edieren volkssprachiger Texte des Mittelalters zwischen Späthumanismus und Historismus
Inbunden, Tyska, 2023

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Ende des 17. Jahrhunderts erhielten volkssprachige Texte des Mittelalters im Heiligen Römischen Reich eine bislang unerreichte Aufmerksamkeit. Gelehrte wie Johann Schilter (1632–1705) sammelten und edierten das älteste deutsche Schriftgut aus einer neuen integrativen und polyhistorisch ausgerichteten Perspektive, die sich für juristische, historiographische und sakrale Texte zugleich interessierte. Am Beispiel der Editionen Schilters untersucht die vorliegende Studie diese Umbruchszeit einer frühneuzeitlichen Germanistik, die deutschrechtliche Studien, Mittelalterhistoriographie und germanische Sprachgeschichte miteinander verband. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die Auswirkungen des Entstehungskontexts frühneuzeitlicher Editionen auf ihr Erscheinungsbild, welche in der Forschung bislang erst in Ansätzen berücksichtigt wurden. Mit Blick auf die begünstigenden oder einschränkenden Faktoren, welche den Herstellungsprozess frühneuzeitlicher Editionen prägten, wird Schilter so als lange Zeit zu Unrecht verkannter Protagonist der germanistischen Mittelalterphilologie um 1700 mit seinen Vorläufern ebenso wie mit seinen Nachfolgern in Beziehung gesetzt.

The chapters in this book reflect on the special status of marginalia as an object of historical-philosophical interpretation and critical editions. They examine the practices of reading and writing from which this text form and the diversity of its purposes and contexts emerged. The focus is on the Latin, Arabic, and Hebrew philosophical traditions of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
Kyrillos Loukaris as an Author of Sermons (1602–1626)
Inventory of the Autograph Codices in the Collection of the Metochion of the Holy Sepulchre

The volume explores the unpublished work of the Greek Orthodox Patriarch Kyrillos Loukaris (c.1570–1638), specifically focusing on his sermons delivered between 1602 and 1626. The study centers on Loukaris’ extant sermons, preserved in an autograph manuscript corpus titled Didachae, currently housed in the collection of the Metochion of the Holy Sepulchre. Following a comprehensive codicological and paleographical examination and the compilation of an annotated inventory of the material, the volume delves into various scholarly inquiries. These include identifying the official corpus of Loukaris’ homiletic work, defining criteria for the standard form, structure, subject matter, and language of the sermons, and analyzing the numerous references to the preacher's diverse readings, including both Orthodox and Latin sources. Moreover, the inventory encompasses all entries found in the codices, presenting the internal classification of the sermons, their methodologies, arguments, the development of each topic, and the application of systems for subsequent processing and revision of the material. Consequently, the description of Loukaris’ unpublished Didachae, regarded as his magnum opus, significantly enriches the modern bibliography on the Patriarch and contributes to the growing field of Eastern Christian homiletics in the early modern period.

Early Modern Literary Genres and Reading Habits
Literary Theory, Social Profiles and Cultural Reactions in Europe and Beyond
Inbunden, Engelska, 2026

Kommande
Reading history and marginalia have become more and more central for global cultural studies. The scholarly community already has in-depth knowledge of the reading habits and annotation systems practiced in vast portions of the modern world, particularly for the 16th and 17th centuries: from Africa to China, from Europe to the Middle East. However, there are still many questions for which we have no answers. Literary Genres and Reading Habits in the Early Modern investigates through various contributions how modern readers approached different textual forms: from Machiavelli’s political treatise to Aristotle's philosophical essay, from Scaliger's poetical work and Dante's literature to scientific and mathematical production. Drawing on a wide range of interdisciplinary approaches that combine historical analysis and stylistic-formal inquiry, the volume aims to document two hypotheses: that reading is a multiple cultural (and ethical) practice, as varied as the genres to which it applies, and that marginalia and reading notes are analyzable and interpretable as an autonomous literary genre.
