The History of Teaching

This conference deals with the question of how history was or should be taught and the status of the subject of history in the early modern period. The following topics will be addressed: When was history taught as a subject in its own right? To what extent was history regarded as an academic discipline? What differences were there between the teaching of history at universities and pre-university institutions? What changes in the teaching of history during the early modern period are known? Are there differences between individual regions and denominations? The geographical focus of the lectures will be on Italy (Florence), Leuven (Belgium), Tartu (Estonia) and the German-speaking regions of Europe (Basel, Danzig, Elbing, Gotha, Nuremberg, Thorn, Vienna, Würzburg and Zurich).
