Summary:
"Offering an interdisciplinary approach to conceptual history, Concepts of Culture broadens its scope through a series of experimental case studies in 'applied conceptual history.' Bringing together Contributors from a variety of disciplines--including art history, comparative literature, cultural studies, German studies, and history--it offers a range of theoretically reflected applications of conceptual history that focus on the cultural concepts, and thereby contribute to the methodological development of these particular fields of research"-- Provided by publisher.
