2026-IpdDip-02 -stum - Visual Ecology – Research strand within the ERC Project NEWWORLD - Renewing the World. A Philosophical History of Early Modern Ecology G.A.101171475
The research programme is connected to the ERC NEWWORLD’s work package on “visual ecology”, with special regard to the curation of a philosophical exhibition. From conceptual perspective, it involves collaborating with the other members of the ERC team to select the exhibits (including digital elements) and to develop the overall concept of the exhibition. Particular attention will be devoted to the representation of space, drawing on maps and cosmographies. This work will lead to a series of publications on the relationship between text and images, with particular attention to the Renaissance, including for a volume to be edited by the ERC team on the longue durée of ecology. The work package includes coordinating and curating the exhibition and providing scientific support for the conception of an international research centre on the European Renaissance, including the development of editorial projects.
