September 2020 digital Programm CURIOSITAS www.kmt.uni-koeln.de 42. Kölner Mediaevistentagung E s geht der Tagung um die Rehabilitierung der theoretischen Neugierde für jenes Millennium, das wir Mittelalter nennen. Was heißt es, eine theoretische Einstellung einzunehmen? Gibt es kul turelle Unterschiede oder einen Bedeutungswandel hinsichtlich der theoretischen Einstellung? Was sind die bevorzugten Gegenstandsbereiche der theoreti schen Neugier? Hierbei prallen zwei Einstellungen aufeinander: die curiositas als fehlgeleitete und im Grunde eitle und schädliche Neugier oder als ein Naturverlangen, als ein desiderium naturale sciendi, das ein anthropo logisches Existential darstellt. Unter welchen Bedingungen ist die theoretische Neugierde legitim? 42. Kölner Mediaevistentagung 7.-10. September 2020 digital CURIOSITAS 3 CURIOSITAS 42. Kölner Mediaevistentagung 7.

vegetabilibus to explain the compilative strategy with which the Dominican master tries
to reconstruct the botanical science. Following a classification of the genres, the main
encyclopaedic, lexicographical, medical and pharmacological sources that influenced the
work of the doctor universalis are listed. It is also aimed at analysing the interest that
motivates Albert’s content choices. In this way, the work is put in relation to the main
texts that constituted the botanical panorama, outlining the innovation of its contribution.
idea of direct observations together with the collection of many sources. In this paper, two medieval philosophers and encyclopaedists will be taken into consideration, Thomas of Cantimpré, and Albert the Great. The latter presents a progressive growth of classifying interest, dividing bees into nine species, some of which were in turn divided into further species. Lastly, the case of Federico Cesi’s Apiarium is particular. His work was written at the beginning of the 17th century and presents a unique methodology. Cesi develops a method that could be called pre-modern as it mixes ancient
terminology with modern aims. While relying on a lot of ancient and medieval sources, including amongst others Pliny, Aristotle and Albert the Great, Cesi in fact tries to prove the statements of these authors through direct observation, which was promoted by the use of the microscope. In this way, he develops a precise taxonomic method in tabular form. The most significant aspect of Cesi’s research concerns, in fact, his taxonomic division. Although the use of the microscope leads to more detailed anatomical descriptions, his taxonomy is still based on morphological features and on the
geographical origin of the insects. The division of the species into subspecies follows a dichotomic division: the mellifices apes could be classified in accord to several criteria; they could be civiles or solitariae, namely either live in a group or alone.
