Alongside Erasmus of Rotterdam, Johannes Reuchlin (1455-1522) is
one of the most important European humanists whose works marked the
transition from the Middle Ages to the modern era. The year 2022
marks the 500th anniversary of the Pforzheim-born jurist, Hebraist,
and religious philosopher's death, cause indeed for an exhibition
and publication to bring jewellery, writings, and language into a
stimulating dialogue and to offer new meanings to the titular
mystery of signs. At the fore stands the human quest for
understanding and tolerance, which has lost none of its relevance
today. One particular focal point comprises selected manuscripts
and works by Reuchlin, highlighted from new perspectives. An
additional emphasis is placed on objects that reflect Reuchlin's
cognitive world through script and symbols from the resplendent
collection of the Schmuckmuseum Pforzheim [Pforzheim jewellery
museum]. With contributions by Jonathan Boyd, Beatriz
Chadour-Sampson, Matthias Dall'Asta, Cornelie Holzach, Wolfgang
Mayer, Susanne Nagel, Katja Poljanac, Stefan Rhein, Nathan Ron,
Isabel Schmidt-Mappes, Pierre Vesperin, and Anja Wolkenhauer. Text
in German.
