Ebook: Heteronome Texte: Kommentierende und tradierende Literatur in Antike und Mittelalter

"Heteronomous texts" are texts that are updated through selection and processed on different levels – academic, cultural, formal, aesthetic – thereby developing their own idiosyncratic "autonomy," which has contributed to the development of Europe’s intellectual foundations. Ten studies present heteronomous texts from antiquity and the middle ages, from the fields of theology and philosophy, medicine and law.
