Petrarchism: Competing Models for Early Modern Community Building (1400-1700)

Idee und Organisation: Prof. Dr. Bernhard Huss (Freie Universität Berlin) und Dr. Roland Béhar (École
Normale Supérieure-PSL, Paris)

Teilnehmer:innen: Prof. Dr. Thomas Borgstedt (Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München), Dr. Giacomo Comiati (University of Oxford), Prof. Véronique Ferrer (Université Paris Nanterre), Dr. Jacopo Galavotti (Freie Universität Berlin/Università degli Studi di Padova), Prof. Dr. Andrew James Johnston (Freie Universität Berlin), Dr. Nicolas Longinotti (Freie Universität Berlin), Prof. Ignacio Navarrete (University of California, Berkeley), Prof. Dr. Paul Smith (Universiteit Leiden) und Prof. Dr. Eva Struhal (Università di Trento)

In the wake of Francesco Petrarch’s self-stylisation as a point of reference for the formation of literary, philosophical and philological groups, communities of intellectuals emerge, first in Italy, then throughout Europe, that refer to certain aspects of Petrarch’s authorial figure and parts of his Italian and Latin oeuvre. Petrarch serves as a model for pre-modern literary, aesthetic, philosophical, philological, historical and artistic concepts and projects.

The workshop’s aim is to analyse the phenomenon of Petrarchism in a broad sense of a multifaceted international, interlinguistic, intergeneric and, by including the question of Petrarchism in the visual arts, also intermedial dynamics, always under the specific aspect of the formation of temporary cultural communities.
