Overview & Synopsis

Dieser Band untersucht die epistemische Funktion des Briefes, d. h. seine Rolle als Medium der Wissensvermittlung, in der Korrespondenz des Publizisten und Diplomaten Karl August Varnhagen von Ense (1785–1858) mit dem Naturforscher und Polyhistor Alexander von Humboldt (1769–1859) sowie dem Schweizer Arzt und Philosophen Ignaz Paul Vital Troxler (1780–1866), am Beispiel des Konzepts der Ganzheit. Joanna Jamrozik orientiert sich dabei an aktuellen Ansätzen der Wissenskommunikationsforschung, die die Rolle dialogischer Formen für die Explikation und Konstitution von Wissen betonen. This volume considers the epistemic function of the letter, i. e. its role as a medium for the transmission of knowledge, in the correspondence of the publicist and diplomat Karl August Varnhagen von Ense (1785–1858) with the naturalist, polyhistor, Alexander von Humboldt (1769–1859) and the Swiss physician and philosopher Ignaz Paul Vital Troxler (1780–1866), using the concept of wholeness as an example. Joanna Jamrozik follows current research on forms of knowledge construction and transmission, which emphasises the role of dialogic forms of communication.
