The art agent Philipp Hainhofer (1578-1647) is one of the most important figures in the politics of art and collections in the first half of the 17th century north of the Alps. He not only planned, commissioned and brokered highly artificial objects for curiosity cabinets, but he also advised collectors and documented art collections he visited in his travelogues. As an Augsburg entrepreneur, he acted at the point of intersection of a significant art-political exchange of ideas and goods, the result of which is reflected - if one disregards the art objects themselves - in the above-mentioned travelogues and in his vast archive of correspondence (containing business correspondence, correspondence with princely commissioners about politics and art), which is comprehensively preserved, for the most part in the Herzog August library in Wolfenbüttel. Since November 2011, these documents have been the focus of research within a DFG-funded project, and a monograph on Philipp Hainhofer is currently being written. The new methodological approach in this study based on Hainhofer as its central figure concentrates on a synthetic approach to the research that has up to now been undertaken separately within various scientific disciplines. It, therefore, unites aspects from the fields of art history (collection history, history of applied arts and their functions), history of communication (information networks in 1600: correspondence and manuscripts), political history (including diplomacy and ambassadors) and literature (travel literature and culture of correspondence) showing up their mutual interdependence. The proposed second funding period of 12 months is used, as provided in the initial proposal, for drafting two chapters and for the overall revision and preparation for printing.

艺术经纪人菲利普·海恩霍夫（Philipp Hainhofer，1578-1647）是17世纪上半叶阿尔卑斯山以北艺术和收藏政治中最重要的人物之一。他不仅计划，委托和经纪高度人工物品的好奇心柜，但他也建议收藏家和记录艺术收藏，他参观了他的游记。作为一名奥格斯堡的企业家，他在一个重要的艺术-政治思想和商品交流的交叉点上采取了行动，如果不考虑艺术品本身的话，其结果反映在上述游记和他大量的信件档案中（包含商业信件，与王子专员关于政治和艺术的信件），保存完好，在沃尔芬比特尔的赫尔佐格·奥古斯特图书馆里自2011年11月以来，这些文件一直是DFG资助项目的研究重点，目前正在撰写关于Philipp Hainhofer的专著。这项研究的新方法论以Hainhofer为核心人物，集中于迄今为止在各个科学学科中单独进行的研究的综合方法。因此，它将艺术史（收藏史，应用艺术史及其功能），通信史（1600年的信息网络：通信和手稿），政治史（包括外交和大使）和文学（旅行文学和通信文化）等领域的各个方面结合起来，显示出它们的相互依存关系。按照初步提案的规定，拟议的第二个供资期为12个月，用于起草两章，并进行总体修订和印刷准备。
