Die zum Teil erstmals aus dem Nachlass edierten Antrittsvorlesungen werden von ausgewiesenen Expertinnen und Experten fach-, wissenschafts- und universitatshistorisch erlautert und in ihrem politischen und gesellschaftlichen Kontext verortet. Der Band leistet einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur kaum erforschten Geschichte der Antrittsvorlesung als universitares Ritual, akademische Praxis und Textgattung. Mit Antrittsreden u. a. von Alexander Conze, Erich Schmidt, Ernst Mach, Elise Richter, Ludwig Boltzmann, Moritz Schlick und Erwin Schrodinger.


This edited collection brings together thirteen inaugural lectures given at the ‘old’ philosophical faculty of the University of Vienna. It presents the voices of important representatives of humanities, natural sciences and social sciences through programmatic texts from the mid-19th century to the mid-20th century. Some published for the first time, the lectures have been annotated by renowned scholars in terms of disciplinary, scientific and academic history as well as socio-political context. Hence, this volume contributes substantially to the so far under-researched history of the inaugural lecture as a university ritual, academic practice and text-genre.With inaugural lectures by Alexander Conze, Erich Schmidt, Ernst Mach, Elise Richter, Ludwig Boltzmann, Moritz Schlick, Erwin Schrodinger and others.
