Der Arkadenhof Der Universitat Wien Und Die Tradition Der Gelehrtenmemoria in Europa: Wiener Jahrbuch Für Kunstgeschichte, Band LXIII/LXIV

Based on the ensemble of monuments in the arcade courtyard of the University of Vienna, this thematic volume is devoted to the tradition of scholarly memoria in European comparison. The first part of the volume focuses on the monuments of the University of Vienna in the context of their genesis and the changing cultural and political framework. The second part opens up the European perspective and directs our attention to the ancient and early modern origins of the Hall of Honor as well as to its various forms in selected European countries to this day. With its methodologically diverse author contributions, this thematic volume makes a significant contribution to a discursive examination of the tradition and topicality of scholarly memory.
