Franziska Fritzsche, So einfach – in der Theorie. Überlegungen zur Interdisziplinarität in der Klassischen Archäologie
The 11th. volume of the series Daidalos – Heidelberger Abschlussarbeiten zur Klassischen Archäologie concentrates on the applicability of interdisciplinary theoretical models within Classical Archaeology. It starts off with an analysis of the term “science” and its evolution in order to extrapolate essential technical terms such as inter-, trans- and multidisciplinarity. This is followed by an overview of the history, methods and theories of Classical Archaeology. Since this discipline has often been criticized for a lack of interdisciplinary theories, the author compares the conception of Classical Archaeology with the modus operandi of Pre- and Protohistory, which in turn features a large spectrum of – at times contradictory – schools of thought. To this end, different theories from Pre- and Protohistory are selected and introduced.
