Formationen einer Kunstwissenschaft

In this study, new archival research enables a re-reading of the controversial art historian Hans Sedlmayr. Modes of citing, excerpting, and writing are analyzed in depth and examined as practices of theory formation. This textological investigation sheds light on receptive, productive, and material aspects that are constitutive for the emergence and discursivization of a scientific model of thought.

The series encourages research that foregoes the traditional division between philosophy and philology in order to bring the meaning and function of forms of expression and presentation of thought into clearer focus. This series is peer-reviewed.
