Synopsis

This volume documents speeches of the University's central event on the occasion of the release of the Hamburg catalogue of professors, supplemented by an epilogue. In her welcoming address, the Vice-President of the university Jetta Frost described the creation of an electronic catalogue of professors as "not only contemporary, but overdue" and necessary for the "self-presentation of our identity as a university". As head of the Centre for University History and responsible for the project, Rainer Nicolaysen stresses the importance of the catalogue as an important basis for research into the history of universities and science. Matthias Glasow documents the conception, genesis and application of the catalogue. The historian Ulf Morgenstern who was involved in the development of the Leipzig Professors' Catalogue more than ten years ago, broadens the horizon beyond the Hamburg example. In his epilogue, Ole Fischer, Head of the Univerisy Archive, stresses that professorial catalogues are "particularly a starting point for a critical examination of individuals and the personal structures of the University of Hamburg".
