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.
Mattias Pirholt is a professor of Literature at Uppsala University (Sweden). He has written extensively on Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Karl Philipp Moritz, and the German Romantics. His book publications include Metamimesis: Imitation in Goethe’s Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre and Early German Romanticism (2012), Grenzerfahrungen: Studien zu Goethes Ästhetik (Winter, 2018), Art, Nature, and Self-Formation in the Age of Goethe (co-ed. with Camilla Flodin and Gerad Gentry, 2024), and Self-Optimization in Modernist Culture (co-ed. with Thorsten Carstensen, 2025).
