Text and Con-Text.Structures of the publishing history of texts of medieval philosophy and its neighboring disciplines.

中世纪哲学文本和与哲学有关的文本都是以手稿和印刷品的形式传达的。提交的项目将涵盖中世纪文本的出版历史。通过全面回顾这段历史，这个项目将第一次为中世纪研究提供两个不同的发现：第一，后来读者对某些中世纪文本兴趣的膨胀和消退；第二，文本语境，后来的读者将这些文本置于这一出版历史中。此外，该项目的历时观点应以排他性的方式描述中世纪文本后期传统的结构特征。这意味着，它既揭示了印刷文本与非印刷文本之间的关系，也揭示了真伪铭文之间的关系。到目前为止，中世纪的哲学研究还没有做到这一点。在认真参考书目前期工作的基础上，提交的项目试图通过涵盖中世纪文本的出版历史并回顾这一历史的不同阶段来结束这一研究理想。文本与其作者之间的双重关系以及整个作品(上下文)之间的关系受到极大的波动。特别是对于最重要的作家，人们可能会说：特别是他们的全集，在不同的版本中被印刷最频繁，经常被不真实的文本渗透。从历史认知的角度来看，我们不能想象某一作品的作者身份被纠正后所造成的历史转折点，而要设想它作为一个整体的接受历史--包括许多部分版本。因为后来对作者的确认并不会使以前的文本接受史变成过时的历史，因为以前的接受者阅读和印刷这篇文章总是把它归功于一定的重要性。这一功劳决定了上述的双重关系。该项目将把涉及中世纪文本出版历史的传记、文本和书目的巨大丰富数据转移到一个大幅升级的在线数据库中，而不是传统的参考书。这将为中世纪学者提供全面的研究机会，例如涵盖所有相关的书目属性。此外，它可以很容易地更正和扩展，甚至可以考虑简短的文本，如信件，卡尔米纳和布道，也可以全面地考虑匿名文本。另一本专著将总结整个中世纪哲学和典范作家的出版史的结构特征。

Medieval philosophical texts and texts relevant for philosophy are conveyed both in manuscript form and in printing. The submitted project will cover the publishing history of medieval texts. By comprehensively reviewing this history, this project will, for the first time, provide two different findings to medieval studies: first, the inflation and deflation of the interest later readers had in certain medieval texts; secondly, the textual contexts, in which later readers placed these texts within this publishing history. Furthermore, the diachronic perspective of this project shall, in an exclusive manner, characterize the structural features of the later tradition of medieval texts. This means, it reveals both the relation between printed and unprinted texts and between authentic and pseudo-epigraphic texts. This has not been accomplished by philosophical medieval research so far. Building on serious bibliographic preliminary works, the submitted project tries to close this research desideratum by covering the publishing history of medieval texts and by reviewing the various stages of this history.The twofold relation between a text and its author and thereby to an oeuvre (con-text) is subject to heavy fluctuations. Especially for the most important authors one might say: Particularly their oeuvre which has been printed most frequently in different editions is often penetrated by non authentic texts. In the interest of historical perception, one has to envision not the historical turning point, caused by the rectification of the authorship of a certain oeuvre, but the history of its reception as a whole - including the many partial editions. For the later identification of an author does not turn the former reception history of a text into an obsolete one since former recipients read and printed this text always by crediting it with a certain importance. This credit determines the aforementioned twofold relation.The project will transfer the enormous abundance of data concerning biographies, texts, and bibliographies dealing with the publishing history of medieval texts into a substantially upgraded online database instead of a conventional reference book. This will provide medieval scholars with comprehensive research opportunities, e. g. the coverage of all relevant bibliographic attributes. Furthermore, it can easily be corrected and extended and can take into account even short texts such as letters, carmina, and sermons and also anonymous texts in a comprehensive manner.An additional monograph shall summarize the structures features of the publishing history for medieval philosophy as a whole and for exemplary authors.
