Synopsis
Contributing Authors

Johann Caspar Lavater – eine schillernde Zentralfigur des 18. Jahrhunderts

Lavaters vielfaltige Interessen, die nicht allein durch Lekture ausgemessen wurden, sondern durch personliche, nicht selten streitbare Kontakte vitalisierend waren, machen ihn zu einer schillernden Zentralfigur des 18. Jahrhunderts. Entsprechend seinem Diktum vom “Antlitz Gottes im Antlitz des Menschen” spiegelt sich dieses 18. Jahrhundert mit den Gleichzeitigkeiten des Ungleich(zeitig)en, mit seinen gradlinigen wie krummen Verlaufen, seinen Kontroversen und Konflikten in Lavaters komplexer Werk-Physiognomie. Der Band schafft interdisziplinare Zugange aus germanistischer Literaturwissenschaft, Latinistik, Russistik, Medizin- und Psychologiegeschichte, Kunstgeschichte, Esoterikgeschichte, Religionswissenschaft, Theologien mehrerer Konfessionen, Musikwissenschaft, Philosophie und Fruhneuzeitgeschichte. Er bietet einen kulturwissenschaftlich-diskursgeschichtlich orientierten Zugriff. Das ist insofern dem Gegenstand des Interesses angemessen, als es sich bei Lavater um einen Autor handelt, der einerseits eine, wenn man so will, kulturwissenschaftlich fundierte und andererseits interdisziplinar ausgreifende Theologie etabliert hat.
