Die akademischen Rituale an den Universitäten Prag und Basel im späten 15. bis frühen 17. Jahrhundert

Abstract

Based on sources of various kinds, this study examines pre-modern academic rituals in the case of two major European universities founded in the Middle Ages. The article suggests the breadth of the issue, focusing primarily on so-called depositions and then on master’s and doctoral graduations. It traces various aspects of the issue, including the process of these rituals and their symbolic aspects. It concludes by summarizing the findings, opening up further perspectives, including the possibility of researching other types of academic rituals and celebrations.
