Keith Tribe
Keith Tribe has a long-standing interest in conceptual and economic history, language and translation as well as an interest in the work of Max Weber. In April 2015, he published the book The Economy of the Word: Language, History, and Economics with Oxford University Press and is currently working on a new translation of Max Weber’s Economy and Society for Harvard University Press. Keith Tribe has also played a huge role in the dissemination and translation of the work of Wilhelm Hennis and Reinhart Koselleck to English speaking academic circles.
The seminars
During his visit, Tribe will lead two seminars, each consisting of two parts, which will follow roughly the same form. In the first part of the seminars, Tribe will give a keynote lecture, and in the second a panel will discuss the overall topic of the day in relation to some of Tribe’s work and/or present circumstances.
