This project combines legal and literary history in an exploration of new epistemic approaches regarding the developments in natural law from the early 17th century on. After reconstructing the early modern interdependencies between the innovative potential of professional jurisprudence and literary imaginations during the first period of the programm, the second period will focus on the correlation between the natural law discourse and social ethics from the early 18th century to 1790. Historical accounts have usually treated these two strands separately, the developments of positive law having been rarely correlated with the new paradigm in natural law that emerged around 1600. Our joint project undertakes to overcome this divide, which the period itself did not draw but which is the product of later disciplinary distinctions and their particular narratives of progress. We aim to develop descriptive categories that will enable us to consider the two fields together both in their dependence on older, mainly legal traditions and in their discontinuities with these traditions. In doing so, we will relate ideas connected with natural law and, especially, conceptions of the status naturalis to narrative experiments in which juridical propositions are tested under utopian conditions literary texts that depict the lives of consummately virtuous people in an ideal commonwealth. The developments which are to be explored are interdependent: the invention of the state founded on an idea of 'natural' origin has its counterpart in an anthropology that defines man as dependent on a network of social relations generating fundamental norms and obligations.

该项目结合了法律的和文学史，探索从世纪早期开始的自然法发展的新认识方法。在重建了专业法学的创新潜力和文学想象力之间的早期现代相互依存关系之后，第二个时期是世纪初至1790年，主要探讨自然法话语与社会伦理的关系。历史记载通常将这两条线分开对待，实在法的发展很少与1600年左右出现的自然法新范式相关联。我们的联合项目致力于克服这一鸿沟，这一时期本身并没有画出来，而是后来的学科区分和他们对进步的特殊叙述的产物。我们的目标是发展描述性的类别，使我们能够考虑这两个领域在一起既依赖于旧的，主要是法律的传统，并在他们的中断与这些传统。在此过程中，我们将把与自然法有关的思想，特别是自然状态的概念与叙事实验联系起来，在叙事实验中，法律命题在乌托邦条件下得到检验，文学文本描绘了理想共和国中消费道德的人的生活。将要探讨的发展是相互依存的：建立在“自然”起源观念基础上的国家的发明在人类学中有其对应物，人类学将人定义为依赖于产生基本规范和义务的社会关系网络。
