A project dedicated to the edition and study of Karl Benedikt Hase’s ‘Secret’ diary, funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) and hosted by the University of Innsbruck

LAGOOS featured in Innsbruck’s research magazine “Zukunft Forschung”

An article in this month’s edition of the University of Innsbruck’s biannual research magazine, “Zukunft Forschung – Das Magazin für Wissenschaft und Forschung der Universität Innsbruck” reports on some of the latest results of the project’s work on Hase’s diary. Read the article here:

Following an interview with Eva Fessler from the journal’s editorial team, the article reports in particular on the project’s latest article, which appeared open-access in Byzantine and Modern Greek Studies in February: “Learning Modern Greek in nineteenth-century Paris: K. B. Hase’s student notes”. The article also introduces the first volume of our ongoing online presentation of Hase’s diaries, available on our edition website: https://app.transkribus.org/sites/lagoos.
