Book Description
Dieser Band reagiert auf das wachsende Interesse an historischen Praktiken. Dabei kommen alte historiographische Tugenden zur Anwendung, denn Geschichtsschreibung ist von ihren Anfängen an stark an Handlungen und Handlungsvollzügen interessiert, an Fakten und ihrer Darstellung. Zugleich muss jedoch neuen methodischen Reflexionen Raum gegeben werden, denn es reicht nicht mehr aus, "Taten" aus Ideen oder individuellen Entscheidungen abzuleiten. Praktiken verfügen über eine Eigenlogik und damit auch über eine eigene Geschichte. Diese zu erschließen, nahm sich die Arbeitsgemeinschaft Frühe Neuzeit in ihrer zehnten Tagung vor. Die wichtigsten Ergebnisse sind in diesem Band versammelt.

Book Description
Wissenschaft ist bis zum 18. Jahrhundert vornehmlich eine Tätigkeit gewesen, die sich mit "gelehrtem" Wissen beschäftigt hat, mit dem Lesen, Einüben, Exzerpieren, Kompilieren, Edieren und Auslegen von überliefertem Wissen. Dreizehn internationale Wissenschaftler untersuchen in den Beiträgen dieses Bandes die Praktiken der Gelehrsamkeit in der Frühen Neuzeit sowie ihre sozialen und kulturellen Bedingungen und Kontexte. Es geht um die Wissenstechnik und ihre Medien ("Lesen und Kompilieren"), den Zusammenhang zwischen der gelehrten Tätigkeit von Editoren, Philologen oder akademische Lehrern und den Endprodukten ihrer Tätigkeit ("Forschen und Lehren"), die Praktiken des Transfers von Wissen an Adressaten ("Kommunizieren und Repräsentieren") und schließlich das Überwachen der gelehrten Kommunikation und ihre Regularien.

Book Description
"Universitätsgeschichte wird nach wie vor vielfach als Wissenschafts- bzw. Institutionengeschichte betrieben. Entsprechend wenige fundierte wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen liegen bisher zum Alltagsleben im frühneuzeitlichen Studenten- und Gelehrtenmilieu vor. Ausgehend von diesem Forschungsdesiderat thematisieren die Beiträge des Bandes zentrale Aspekte des Lebens an den vormodernen Universitäten in europäischer Perspektive. Im Blickfeld der Betrachtungen stehen Phänomene wie Musik und Tanz in der studentischen Kultur, das Leben in den Colleges der Universität Krakau im 16. Jahrhundert oder die Männlichkeitskonzepte von Studenten an der frühneuzeitlichen Universitat Cambridge. Einen anderen Blick auf die professorale Lebensrealität werfen Beitrage zur gelehrten Kleiderordnung als Medium sozialer Distinktion, zu Professorengrabmälern in Oxford, Leiden und Tübingen als symbolische Markierungen des gelehrten Milieus sowie zu Orten und Praktiken der Gelehrtenkultur am Beispiel der Gastfreundschaft."--Publisher's website.

Book Description
The printed book caused an explosion of knowledge and major changes in the perception of texts. In investigating how knowledge was presented to the early modern reader, this volume treats both book-historical issues and the intersections of layout with issues of genre, content and function.

Book Description
Lucas Haasis found a time capsule: A complete mercantile letter archive of the merchant Nicolaus Gottlieb Luetkens who lived in 18th century Hamburg. Luetkens travelled France between 1743-1745 in order to become a successful wholesale merchant. He succeeded in this undertaking via both shrewd business practice and proficient skills in the practice of letter writing. Based on this unique discovery, in this microhistorical study Lucas Haasis examines the crucial steps and activities of a mercantile establishment phase, the typical letter practices of Early Modern merchants, and the practical principles of persuasion leading to success in the 18th century.

Book Description
How might practice theories and engagement with practice contribute to and advance theological study of religion and religious life and practices? This volume explores and discusses how theological engagement with practice, theoretically as well as empirically, might profit from theories of practice developed in disciplines such as philosophy, sociology, education and organisational studies during the recent decades, but so far scarcely employed within theology. In part I, the volume unfolds key components of practice theory, especially as they have more recently been developed within sociological practice theories, reflect on their significance and potential with regard to theology. In part II, these perspectives are employed in the study of concrete religious practices - established as well as experimental religious practices, and collective as well as individual ones. By unfolding connections between theology and practice theories, and reflecting on practice theories' analytical and theoretical potential for theological study of religion, the book will be of interest for any scholar in the study of contemporary religion and practical theology.

Book Description
Thinking Bodies - Shaping Hands focuses on the critical as well as historical dimension of the handling of the brush and of the resulting appearance of colour on the painted surface in art and art theory from the middle of the 17th (above all from 1660) to the dawn of the 18th century in the Netherlands. More specifically, it deals with Rembrandt’s last pupils such as Arent de Gelder. „Handeling” describes an active, embodied process that is connected to the motion of the hand with the brush or with any other kind of tool. This term, up to now not sufficiently appreciated in scholarly literature, seems to be fruitful in this context. It is not so much connected with the term „style”, as with a prior step, which is equivalent to „manner”. At the same time, its meaning in Dutch till today is „action”. „Handeling” is an act that could be described as a „form-act”. It focuses on Formgestaltung, in which these actions themselves are understood as processes. Examining the „Rembrandtist ideology of painting”, this study attempts to reveal the embodied process of painting in the sense of a bodily articulation during the application of colour. This occurs within the productive tension between theory and practice.

Book Description
Both in our time and in the past, death was one of the most important aspects of anyone’s life. The early modern period saw drastic changes in rites of death, burials and commemoration. One particularly fruitful avenue of research is not to focus on death in general, but the moment of death specifically. This volume investigates this transitionary moment between life and death. In many cases, this was a death on a deathbed, but it also included the scaffold, battlefield, or death in the streets. Contributors: Friedrich J. Becher, Benedikt Brunner, Isabel Casteels, Martin Christ, Louise Deschryver, Irene Dingel, Michaël Green, Vanessa Harding, Sigrun Haude, Vera Henkelmann, Imke Lichterfeld, Erik Seeman, Elizabeth Tingle, and Hillard von Thiessen.

Book Description
During the early modern period, the emergence of what ultimately became modern science took place mainly in Latin, the international language of educated discourse of the era. Hundreds of thousands of scientific texts were published in Latin from the invention of print around 1450 to the demise of Latin as a language of science around 1850. Despite its importance, our knowledge of this literature is extremely limited. This book aims to provide an overview of this area, the first ever to be written. It does so, not from the perspective of a natural scientist or a historian of science, but of a literary scholar. Instead of the scientific content or methodology of the respective works, it focusses on the genres of scientific literature and their communicative functions. Latin Scientific Literature, 1450-1850 falls into two main parts. The first part ('Contexts') introduces four aspects of early modern intellectual culture which are crucial for an understanding of the scientific literature of the time: the development of science, the role of Latin, the concept of literature, and the rise of print. Part two ('Texts'), offers an overview of Neo-Latin scientific literature. Subsumed under five communicative functions - disclosing sources, presenting facts, arguing for certain positions, summarizing knowledge, and publicizing science - twenty pertinent genres are discussed.
