Ordnen - Vernetzen - Vermitteln: Kunst- und Naturalienkammern der Frühen Neuzeit als Lehr- und Lernorte (2018)

unapi

Kunst- und Naturalienkammern der Frühen Neuzeit faszinieren Besucher und Forscher gleichermaßen als Orte des wissenschaftlichen Sammelns und ästhetischer Präsentation von Naturgeschichte. Der Band konzentriert sich auf deren Bedeutung als Lehr- und Lernorte. Wie erfolgten Lehre und Lernen an diesen Orten? Nach welchen Ordnungen wurden ihre Objekte gesammelt und präsentiert? Wie waren solche frühneuzeitlichen Sammlungen miteinander vernetzt? Woher kamen die Objekte, und wie kamen sie in die Sammlungen? – Das sind nur einige Fragen, die u. a. an Sammlungen in Halle, Leipzig, Erfurt, Göttingen, Zürich, Breslau, London und St. Petersburg untersucht werden. Ein besonders anschauliches Beispiel liefert etwa die Kunst- und Naturalienkammer der Franckeschen Stiftungen, die in den Schulunterricht des Waisenhauses einbezogen war. Die Beiträge analysieren Lehr- und Lernfunktionen eines breiten Spektrums von Sammlungsformen, die vor allem im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert an Akademien, Gelehrten Gesellschaften, Universitäten und Schulen, aber auch an Höfen und in Häusern reicher Bürger etabliert waren. Sie charakterisieren außerdem die Bildungsintensionen sehr verschiedener Sammlerpersönlichkeiten. Art and natural history chambers of the early modern era fascinate visitors and researchers alike as places for scientific collecting and aesthetic presentation of natural history. The volume focuses on their importance as teaching and learning locations. How did teaching and learning take place in these places? According to what order were your objects collected and presented? How were such early modern collections networked with one another? Where did the objects come from and how did they get into the collections? - These are just a few of the questions that are being investigated in collections in Halle, Leipzig, Erfurt, Göttingen, Zurich, Wroclaw, London and St. Petersburg, among others. A particularly vivid example is provided by the art and natural history chamber of the Francke Foundations, which was included in the school lessons at the orphanage. The contributions analyze the teaching and learning functions of a broad spectrum of forms of collection that were established primarily in the 17th and 18th centuries at academies, learned societies, universities and schools, but also at courts and in the homes of wealthy citizens. They also characterize the educational intentions of very different collector personalities.
