A History of Curiosity - The Theory of Travel 1550-1800 (Paperback): Justin Stagl A History of Curiosity - The Theory of Travel 1550-1800 (Paperback)

The author's grasp of the vast, often obscure, but highly interesting body of literature which emerged in the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries commands the attention of a wide readership outside purely academic boundaries. Stagl weaves together a series of separate studies, emphasizing links between the figures, the philosophies and the literature of early modern times; links which have previously only been suspected.
In focusing on the "ars apodemica," or "art of travelling," a body of formal instruction on how to travel, observe and record the information gathered, Stagl demonstrates the origins of the characteristic inquisitive and systematizing spirit of the modern West.
"A History of Curiosity" examines the early methodology of anthropological and social research from a critical-historical perspective. The two principal methods of research, travel and the questionnaire, are studied in the context of the social conditions and intellectual trends of early modern times.

Das Buch untersucht die historische Dynamik der Lehre des katholischen Sozialreformers Karl von Vogelsang. Es folgt dem Denken und Wirken dreier Generationen seiner Schuler zwischen 1880 und 1960 in der oesterreichischen Monarchie, der Ersten und der Zweiten Republik und in der Weltkirche .Es behandelt dabei die konservative Kritik an Liberalismus und Kapitalismus, den foederalistischen Korporatismus, den Laizismus in der Kirche mit dem politischen, sozialen und kulturellen Katholizismus und die Reaktion darauf im Integralismus, die Entstehung "christlich-sozialer" Parteien, eine konservierende Haltung zur Natur und gewachsenen Sozialbeziehungen, schliesslich auch den Antijudaismus.
