Concepts of Text and Scripture in Early Modern Drama

The project focuses on questions applying to the theoretical field on the archaeology of concepts regarding text and scripture – acting on the hypothesis that both drama and print brought along considerable changes not only in technical terms but also (and maybe in an even more comprehensive way) with regard to subjacent theoretical matters. The joint consideration of these two phenomena opened a new perspective on the history of Early Modern drama in Europe.

In 2015, S. T. Kilian was part of the organizing committee of the DramaNet conference on Poetics and Politics.
