Preface: The History of Scholarly Forgetting

Journal Contribution - Journal Article

The collection of essays in this themed issue examine processes of forgetting in the history of the humanities. The theme includes contributions from fields as diverse as art history, musicology, linguistics, logic, classics, archaeology, papyrology, theology, and history. By exploring how names, books, ideas, methods, connections, and approaches have fallen into oblivion, and by asking why this happened, the essays raise some wider questions about writing histories of humanities.
