Projects

Enlightenment, Classicism and the Classics. Concepts of periods as historical constructions in European Context

Elisabeth Décultot, Martin Dönike, Claudia Keller and Denis Stante

The goal of this project is to investigate the terms given to the periods of the Enlightenment, Classicism and the Classics as historical constructions and hence to ask about their meaning for a retrospective understanding of the long 18th century. The reconstruction of terminological and intellectual-historical contexts will pay particular attention to internationally diverging terminological traditions and historical asynchronicities across Europe.

Excerpting, Citing, Plagiarizing. Written Culture, Academic Practices and Authorship (16th–21st century)

Elisabeth Décultot, Christian Kuhlmann, Helmut Zedelmaier

This project investigates transformations in reading and writing with regard to the practices of excerpting, citing and plagiarizing from the early modern period up to the present day, across all of Europe. The C18th deserves particular attention here as a transitionary period and link between the humanistic tradition and the present day.
