Annotation

Referring to the approaches applied by the history of mentalities and historical anthropology, this course is concerned with the way historians examine cultural categories (i.e. concepts, ideas, images, ways of imagination etc.) and their historical variability, with a special emphasis on the European culture. Along with an introduction to a range of methodological issues, the course reflects on the historical variability of selected cultural categories.
