Synopsis
Authors/Editors
Contributing Authors

Eine um 1750 einsetzende zweite Welle der Entdeckungsreisen brachte eine Flut von Informationen uber bislang nicht oder nur wenig bekannte Kulturen nach Europa und sprengte so das Paradigma des uberkommenen Menschenbildes. Im Rahmen eines neu entstehenden Themenfeldes der so genannten Varietaten des Menschengeschlechts bildeten sich in Folge zwei Wissensgebiete aus, die im Mittelpunkt dieses Buches stehen: die Naturgeschichte des Menschen sowie die Geschichte der Menschheit. In den Blick genommen werden nicht nur die jeweiligen Wissenssysteme, sondern auch die ihnen zugrunde liegenden Verfahren der Wissensproduktion vom Sammeln der Daten, Objekte und Artefakte vor Ort uber ihre Verarbeitung bis hin zu den daraus resultierenden Publikationen.

Thomas Nutz ist promovierter Historiker und Geschäftsführer einer von ihm gegründeten Firma für automatisierte Handelstechnologien.
