Der Band knüpft an das wissenshistorisch und praxeologisch orientierte Interesse an Genealogie an, wie es vor allem in der Geschichte der Vormoderne der letzten Jahre formuliert wurde. Dabei wird in den Blick genommen, wie sich im Bereich der Genealogie die Verschränkung und gegenseitige Beeinflussung wissenschaftlicher und populärer Praktiken, etwa in Vereinen, auswirkte. Genealogische Forschungspraxis wurde zudem als Wissensfeld in historischen, sozialwissenschaftlichen, naturwissenschaftlichen und medizinischen Fächern genutzt. Wie zirkulierte genealogisches Wissen zwischen Vereinen, Universitäten, religiösen und staatlichen Behörden und Archiven seit dem 19. Jahrhundert, und für welche gesellschaftlichen Ordnungsvorstellungen wurde es verwendet? Wie dynamisieren der Medienwandel und Strategien des Open Access in Archiven die Produktion von Genealogien? Mit Beiträgen von Bertram Fink, Manfred Gailus, Bernd Gausemeier, Michael Hecht, Katrin Heil, Amos Kuster, Daniel Menning, Niklas Regenbrecht, Jan Ripke, Nicolas Rügge, Jan Ruhkopf, Astrit Schmidt-Burkhardt, Marianne Sommer, Elisabeth Timm, Fiona Vicent. What was the significance of searching for and finding "family" and kinship through the ages? Which methods and strategies did actors use to produce relational connections, and into what structures and discourses can these practices be categorized? This volume takes up new insights from research into premodernity based on the history of knowledge and praxeology.

How was knowledge produced by different people in different times and at different places? How was knowledge stored, managed, classified, organized, deployed, forgotten, and recycled? Finally, how did such practices affect what counted as knowledge? The series invites contributions on the 'long' early modern period in Europe and publishes also works on global cultures of knowledge under European influence.

In the American “Wild West” the nation’s predominant paleontologists O. C. Marsh and E. D. Cope raced for the discovery of the most spectacular dinosaur fossils the world had ever seen. The “Bone Wars” not only unearthed triceratops, stegosaurus, and brontosaurus, they also made US paleontology world-famous. This book analyzes international scientific networks, carves out German influences on the evolution of US paleontology and higher education, and examines the link between the rise of US nationalism and science. So-far neglected by scholars, the perspectives of O. C. Marsh’s German assistants take center stage.

The second issue of the yearbook History of Intellectual Culture (HIC) dedicates a thematic section to modes of publication. This volume addresses recent advances in publication studies and stresses the cultural formation of knowledge.

Arbeiter sind längst von der politischen Bühne verschwunden - scheinbar zwangsläufig infolge des Strukturwandels. Begreift man ›Arbeiter‹ jedoch als eine Ressource gesellschaftlichen Wissens, kommen Akteure wie Gewerkschafter, Filmschaffende und Wissenschaftler in den Blick. Sie nutzten in den 1970er und 1980er Jahren kreativ das Potential der ›Arbeiter‹. Und doch gaben sie diese Ressource bewusst wieder auf. Was bewegte sie dazu? Laborers have long since disappeared from the political stage - seemingly inevitably as a result of structural change. However, if one understands 'laborers' as a resource of social knowledge, actors such as trade unionists, filmmakers, and scholars come into view. In the 1970s and 1980s, they creatively used the potential of the 'laborers' only to give up this resource deliberately thereafter. What moved them to do so?
