Differenz: Anmerkungen zu einem analytischen Leitbegriff Reinhart Kosellecks

Koselleck 100

Britta Hochkirchen – Sattelzeit, Erfahrungsraum, Zeitschichten, Lava: Die schillernden Metaphern, die Reinhart Koselleck als beschreibende und analytische Begriffe in seiner Forschung für neue Perspektivierungen der Historie zu nutzen wusste, sind heute zum Gegenstand eigener Studien geworden. Daneben (oder dahinter?) fallen weitere – weniger schillernde – Begriffe auf, die Koselleck nicht allein in hoher Anzahl nutzte, sondern die darüber hinaus eine zentrale Stellung innerhalb seines Denkens eingenommen haben.

KOMPOSITA: Contributions to Reinhart Koselleck’s “Space of Resonance”

Koselleck 100

Bettina Brandt, Jonathon Catlin, Jana Kristin Hoffmann & Lisa Regazzoni – The historian Reinhart Koselleck would have turned one hundred on April 23, 2023. The work of Koselleck, who died in 2006, is now in vogue in the humanities and historical social sciences, both in Germany and internationally. The fact that Koselleck addressed a basic question of historical scholarship with his contributions to a theory of historical time is a likely factor in this successful reception, as is the diversity of his oeuvre, in which new facets can continually be discovered, and which invites surprising readings.

Outlines of a critical theory of history

Christophe Bouton – Philosophical research on history as it is developing today in France does not pursue the ambition that characterized the philosophies of history of Hegel or Auguste Comte, namely delivering the sense and finality of “the history of humanity”. This way of thinking about history continued to recede throughout the twentieth century, and has been criticized by both philosophers (such as François Lyotard, who pointed to the end of “great narratives”) and historians (for example Paul Veyne and Roger Chartier). Like many others I prefer the expression “theory of history”, in order to establish distance from the tradition of teleological philosophies of history. What positive content can be attributed to it?

Esquisse d’une théorie critique de l’histoire

Christophe Bouton – Telle que se développe aujourd’hui en France, la recherche philosophique sur l’histoire n’entend nullement renouer avec l’ambition qui caractérisait les philosophies de l’histoire de Hegel ou d’Auguste Comte, celle de délivrer le sens et la finalité de « l’histoire de l’humanité ». Cette manière de penser l’histoire n’a cessé de reculer tout au long du XXe siècle, elle a été critiquée tant par les philosophes (tel François Lyotard, qui a pointé la fin des « grands récits »), que par les historiens (par exemple Paul Veyne et Roger Chartier). C’est pour marquer la distance avec la tradition des philosophies téléologiques de l’histoire que je préfère, comme beaucoup, l’expression « théorie de l’histoire ». Quel contenu positif lui attribuer ?
