Syllabus
  • The seminar focuses on the reading and subsequent analysis of various types of documents from the Modern Age. Excerpts for discussion will also cover areas which have not been studied by diplomatics because some of the documents (particularly from the Modern Age) have yet to be researched. Different administrative approaches will also be examined.
