Mythen und Erinnerungen im Zeichen des Panthers nimmt eine neue Ringvorlesung unter die Lupe. Foto: Steiermärkisches Landesarchiv

Historische Ringvorlesung über die steirische Erinnerungskultur startet am 7. März

Wie haben sich Mythen ins kollektive Gedächtnis eingeschrieben? Welche Machtausübung war dafür nötig? Welche Geschichten wurden erst im Nachhinein mit Fabelhaftem angereichert? Diesen Fragen geht die neue Ringvorlesung „Mythos.Macht.Geschichte: Historische Konstruktionen des Erinnerungsraumes Steiermark und Innerösterreich“ auf den Grund, die am 7. März startet. Dabei geht es um Hexen und Teufel ebenso wie um die Heilige Maria, um Dichtung wie um Rechtliches. Die Vortragenden kommen aus den Bereichen Archäologie, Germanistik, Geschichte, Soziologie, Rechtsgeschichte und Religionswissenschaft.
Die Lehrveranstaltung ist eine Kooperation der Uni Graz mit der Historischen Landeskommission für Steiermark und richtet sich nicht nur an Studierende, sondern an alle Interessierten. Die einzelnen Veranstaltungen finden immer mittwochs von 17 bis 18.30 Uhr statt, teilweise im Hörsaal 4.01 an der Uni, teilweise im Wartingersaal des Landesarchivs am Karmeliterplatz 3.

Das genaue Programm als pdf

Die Ergebnisse der Vorlesung sollen 2019 in Buchform erscheinen und eine neue Reihe im Grazer Universitätsverlag eröffnen.

The answers are provided by the initial findings of a major study involving the University of Graz. 99 per cent of those surveyed are in favour of the state ensuring healthcare provision. Almost three-quarters would like to see more public funding for education, whilst only around three per cent are in favour of cuts in this sector.

Complying with the norm: Why Do Standards Shape Our Lives, Elisabeth Staudegger?

Standards determine whether a sheet of paper fits in a printer or whether a charging plug can power multiple devices. These standards shape our everyday lives. But who actually sets these standards? Where are the weaknesses, and how could science help to improve them? Elisabeth Staudegger, Head of the ‘Law and IT’ Department at the Institute for Legal Foundations at the University of Graz, host the Academic Standards Day on 16 June. Here she relays how sciences can contribute to the topic of standardisation and reveals her personal favourite standard.
