The history of ideas at Aarhus University The academic environment in Philosophy and the History of Ideas at Aarhus University is the largest of its type in Denmark and – not least thanks to the productive tension between the systematic and historical perspectives – the research conducted is characterised by an undogmatic and open orientation towards the worldy sphere. The programme’s researchers are thus involved in a variety of interdisciplinary projects both within and outside the Faculty of Arts. For a more detailed description of the programme, please see this website.
The Department of Culture and Society
The focus of the Department of Culture and Society, to which the History of Ideas Programme belongs, is the interplay of culture and society in time and space:
– from the traditional disciplines of the humanities and theology
to applied social research
– from antiquity to the issues facing contemporary societies
– from familiar Danish cultural forms to other – and very different –
worlds
– from local questions to global challenges
The department’s goal is to produce compelling research with international resonance and visibility, as well as to offer high-quality undergraduate and post-graduate study programmes. The department is closely linked to society, both in Denmark and abroad, and contributes to social innovation, research communication and further and continuing education. For a more detailed description of the department, please see this website.
The Faculty of Arts
