"Ars corrigendi" in der frühen Neuzeit
Unter dem Titel Ars corrigendi diskutierten F. Robortello (1557), W. Canter (1571) und K. Schoppe (1597), wie man aus dem überlieferten Textmaterial verlässliche Textfassungen gewinnen konnte – Editionen antiker Texte bildeten ja die Voraussetzung für die Aneignung der antiken Wissensbestände im Renaissancehumanismus. Die antiken Schriften in den Manuskripten hatten auf ihrem langen Überlieferungsweg im Mittelalter viele Verschreiber und redaktionelle Umarbeitungen erfahren und mussten nun in mühseliger Kleinarbeit verbessert werden.

Die Urkunden Philipps von Schwaben
English summary: The double-election of the Staufen Philipp of Swabia and the Welf Otto IV in 1198 marked the beginning of one of the worst political crises of the High Middle Ages, which ultimately affected the whole of the Holy Roman Empire.

He develops a historical anthropology of collecting and sheds new light upon the genesis of the modern museum. Pomian charts the changes in fashion which characterised the world of collecting, arguing that such shifts can be seen as a sign of wider and more profound changes in mentality and can be analysed in terms of a conflict between aesthetic and historical sensibilities.
