| Abstract | 'Cultural memory and the resources of the past, 400-1000 AD' is the title of a joint research project by the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the Universities of Utrecht, Cambridge, and Leeds. It is funded by Humanities in the European Research Area (HERA), a project led by the European Science Foundation (ESF). The project combines two elements: on the one hand, the careful analysis of the transmission of texts and manuscripts; on the other, the problem of identity formation, including perceptions of difference on the part of specific social, political and religious communities. It has started in 2010, and the two sessions entitled 'cultural memory' are the first presentation of ongoing research. |
