Die Ein-Mann-Theorie. Reinhart Koselleck auf der Zeitenschwelle zum Klassiker
摘要
An examination of the recent reception of Reinhart Koselleck (1923–2006) on the occasion of his centenary shows that the transition from an emerging to a genuine field of research has been completed. Nonetheless, there is a contemporary ambivalence towards his work that oscillates between theoretical debate and superficial evocation. In particular, some persistent theoretical deficits in historical scholarship call for a more systematic and deeper engagement with Koselleck’s work. The new literature shows: increasingly rich sources provide the basis for numerous ongoing and potential research projects.
