Description

Book Synopsis
Philological practices have served to secure and transmit textual sources for centuries. However - this volume contends -, it is only in the light of the current radical media change labeled "digital turn" that the material and technological prerequisites of the theory and practice of philology become fully visible. The seventeen studies by scholars from the universities of Budapest and Cologne assembled here investigate these recent transformations of our techniques of writing and reading by critically examining core approaches to the history and epistemology of the humanities. Thus, a broad praxeological overview of basic cultural techniques of collective memory is unfolded.

Trade Review
"A large number of the contributions [contain] far-reaching theoretically ambitious considerations, which indicate the blatant need for research in the philological history of science." Friederike Schruhl, JLTonline, 22.03.2020, translated from German
