Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Religious diversity was a structural condition in early modern Southeast Europe and to this extent forms a cultural heritage that continues to have manifold impacts until today. This phenomenon has been moving for some time now increasingly into the focus of critical historical research on the region, which questions established national-historiographic interpretations and also deconstructs static perceptions of the Early Modern in Southeast Europe. The seminar initially deals with institutional aspects of religious heterogeneity, whereby imperial ruling strategies applied by Ottomans, Venetians and Habsburgs are examined in comparative perspective. A further question concerns the manifold social and cultural implications of religious heterogeneity, with the focus being on contact zones and forms of trans-religious interaction as well as their repercussions on the formation of denominational identities. There will also be opportunity to examine the limits and scope of tolerance under pre-secular conditions.
