The concept of otium and leisure are key to understanding epistolary cultures in early modern Italy. The correspondence of politicians, families, artists, and composers (re)negotiated boundaries between active and the contemplative lives in ways that might even provide new perspectives on today's use of social media.
Über Formen der Muße erschließt sich ein neuer Zugang zu den Briefkulturen im Italien der frühen Neuzeit. In den Korrespondenzen von Politikern, Familien, Künstlerinnen und Künstlern oder Komponisten (voll)ziehen und verschieben sich die Grenzen zwischen tätigem und kontemplativem Leben in einer Weise, die uns vielleicht sogar neue Perspektiven auf die sozialen Medien der Gegenwart eröffnen könnte.
