This volume endeavours to describe and comparatively discuss the formation of academic disciplines in Austria through their concrete research practice, focussing on the examples of music research, art history, geography, geology, ancient history and archaeology, oriental studies and historical research. Some of these disciplines deal with (historical) processes, some lie on the boundary between humanities and the natural sciences. This interdisciplinary approach seeks to make a contribution to research on 19th-century Austrian scientific practice that has also significantly shaped today’s research landscape.
