We invite you to the lecture, organised as part of the seminar series ‘Legal History Meets Digital Humanities’ at the Max Planck Institute for Legal History and Legal Theory and held in a hybrid format on 3 December 2024 from 14:00 to 16:00.

This presentation held by Prof’in. Dr. Silke Schwandt (Bielefeld University) explores the influence of the digital condition of our society on the development of historical methods in recent years. Methods and practices in history are being transferred into the digital realm and transformed by it. The talk will use several examples from medieval legal history to explore these developments and ask for the institutional challenges and changes that come with the digital condition.
