Annotated digital edition of Philipp Hainhofer's travel and collection accounts

奥格斯堡市民菲利普·海恩霍夫是世纪上半叶阿尔卑斯山以北艺术品以及政治和文化信息的主要代理人。作为17世纪世纪的“文化经纪人”，他不断地跨越民族和政治的界限。他的商业、政治和学术信件之间有着广泛的交流，他的旅行记录和对宫廷接受者的艺术品的描述，他复杂的艺术作品和他与艺术品、其他奢侈品、书籍和手稿的交易，这些都概述了各自活动领域的内容和结构。海恩霍夫以这种方式创造了分类的微观世界，作为对三十年战争前夕分裂的国家和政治世界的回答。海恩霍夫的上述行动领域集中在他的旅行帐户。它们构成了他书面遗产的核心，为近代早期的艺术史和历史研究以及相关学科提供了大量存储，并且在关于居住，收藏，宫廷，贵族和礼仪文化，旅行和艺术文学，文化交流和物质文化，外交和政治史的研究方面具有丰富的多样性，和游记作为自我文档，仅举几例。该项目将首次以注释数字版的形式呈现Hainhofer的完整旅行记录。它的目的是提供一个现代和复杂的文件，他的旅行与原件，全文，广泛的关键文书和文本和图像的注释和地图附录的再现。除了期待已久的完整和系统的索引Hainhofer的旅行帐户，该项目服务于两个概念结构的学术方法。一个是，它的目的是集中在泛欧洲地区的文化机构和转移的功能和重要性的问题，在日益增加的政治和民族冲突，另一个是，它希望采用跨学科的方法，其中不同的研究领域结合到同一程度。

The Augsburg citizen Philipp Hainhofer was the leading agent for art objects as well as for political and cultural information in the first half of the 17th century north of the Alps. As “cultural broker” of the 17th century he constantly crossed denominational and political boundaries. There was a versatile exchange between his mercantile, diplomatic-political, and academic correspondence, his travel accounts and description of artworks for courtly recipients, his complex Kunstkammerschränke and his trading with art objects, other luxuries, books and manuscripts, which outlined content and structure of the respective areas of activity. In this manner Hainhofer created classified microcosms as an answer to a denominational and political world drifting apart on the eve of the Thirty Years’ War. Hainhofer’s above mentioned spheres of action were converged in his travel accounts. They form the core of his written inheritance and provide a large store for art historical and historical research in the early modern period as well as related disciplines and this in a rich diversity concerning the study of residencies, collections, courtly, nobility, and ceremonial culture, travel and art literature, cultural exchange and material culture, history of diplomacy and politics, and travelogues as ego-document just to mention a few. This project will present Hainhofer’s complete travel accounts for the first time in an annotated digital edition. It is intended to provide a modern and complex documentation of his travels with renditions of the originals, full text, extensive critical instruments and annotations of text and image and cartographic addendum. Besides the long-awaited complete and systematical indexing of Hainhofer’s travel accounts, the project serves two conceptual-structural academic approaches. One is that it aims at focusing on the question of function and importance of cultural agency and transfer in the pan-European area during increased political and denominational conflicts, the other is that it wishes to apply an interdisciplinary approach in which the different fields of study are combined to the same degree.
