"The project investigates the astonishing convergence between different basic researches that strive for an anthropological generalization: The specifically human nature of Homo sapiens sapiens is seen in its ability to cooperate and the ability to cooperate is identified both ontogenetically and phylogenetically with transitions to the potential of cooperative pointing."
If we have always lived in a media society, what are media actually? Erhard Schüttpelz explores this question in his new book Medium, Medium: Elemente einer Anthropologie (Medium, Medium: Elements of an Anthropology).
Nowadays, the term “medium” is often used in connection with technology, although media have long existed in other mediating roles between humans and non-humans. With this study, Schüttpelz shifts the perspective of media studies and asks the question of what media actually are.
Editoral text:
When we think of media, we usually have in mind its manifestation in technical devices, from the first telegraph to today’s communication and storage media. This ignores the fact that the term medium also has a meaning that existed before technology, in which it refers to those who can mediate between heaven and earth, between the living and the dead, between those present and those absent. If mediality can be understood over millennia as a practice that connects humans and non-humans, a rupture takes place in the modern age: Media fall into one with technology, and a diverse strangeness of media becomes an interplay of prosthesis and remote control.
In his groundbreaking study, Erhard Schüttpelz shifts the perspective of media studies: from weapon to container, from writing to language, from magic to ritual. And he poses the question of what media actually are if we have always lived in media societies.
Erhard Schüttpelz is laureate of the Scholar’s Prize 2025
The Aby Warburg Foundation awards its scholar’s prize to Erhard Schüttpelz, Professor of Media Theory and PI at the CRC 1187 Media of Cooperation at the University of Siegen. The award recognizes individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the arts, culture and humanities.
Erhard Schüttpelz, born in 1961 in Haldern (now Rees), studied in Hannover, Exeter, Bonn, Cologne and Oxford (St. Johns) and completed his doctorate in 1994 at the University of Bonn. In 1994/95 he was a Feodor Lynen Fellow of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation at Columbia University, New York. From 1996 to 1998, he was a postdoc at the DFG Research Training Group Theory of Literature and Communication at the University of Konstanz; from 1998 to 2003, he was a research associate preparing and then working at the DFG Collaborative Research Centre Media and Cultural Communication at the universities of Cologne, Bonn and Aachen. He completed his habilitation at the University of Konstanz in 2003, where he was scientific coordinator of the research initiative Cultural Theory and Theory of the Political Imaginary from 2003 to 2005, funded by the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize awarded to Albrecht Koschorke. In 2005, he was a fellow at the IFK (Vienna). Since 2005, he has been a professor of media theory at the University of Siegen. Principal investigator of the DFG Research Training Group Locating Media and the DFG Collaborative Research Center Media of Cooperation. 2012-2016 Elected member of the DFG Review Board 103, 2018-2022 Member of the University Council of the University of Siegen. He has also held fellowships in Weimar, Konstanz, Berlin (FU), Münster and at the Center for Advanced Studies – Erlangen.
His interests are in the fields of philology and cultural studies. They first led him from structuralist literary theory to the linguistic theory of rhetorical figures, fuelled by a fondness for impossible syntheses that could have bridged the gap between continental and analytical philosophy, for cross-disciplinary border crossers, for the history of science in the humanities in the context of science and technology studies, and for figures of transition, border objects, tricksters, disturbances, images. He found his home in the German media studies that had emerged in the meantime – of which he says they are »a discipline that I could neither have studied nor better have thought up in order to pursue my interest in opportunities for cooperation.«
His films and books include, among others, a film with the working title Gaabi Cirey! and the voice of Hanns Zischler (with Anja Dreschke and Carlo Peters), the film A Kind of World War (with Anselm Franke, 2021), online at: https://www.hkw.de/de/app/mediathek/video/84649 and the books A Kind of World War / Eine Art Weltkrieg (with Anselm Franke, Berlin, Haus der Kulturen der Welt, 2021), Die Moderne im Spiegel des Primitiven. Weltliteratur und Ethnologie 1870-1960 (Munich 2005), Deutland (Berlin 2023) and Medium, Medium: Elemente einer Anthropologie (Berlin 2025). His volume »Schlangenritual«. Der Transfer der Wissensformen vom Tsu’ti’kive der Hopi bis zu Aby Warburgs Kreuzlinger Vortrag (Berlin 2007), co-edited with Cora Bender and Thomas Hensel, emerged from a conference at the Warburg-Haus in 2002.
Date and title of Erhard Schüttpelz’s laureate lecture at the Warburg-Haus in the second half of 2025 are to be announced in the near future.
About the Scholar’s Prize of the Aby Warburg Foundation
With its scholar’s prize, the Wissenschaftspreis, the Aby Warburg Foundation has been recognizing outstanding research in the field of art history, cultural studies, and the humanities every year since 1995. An integral part of the award is that prizewinners are also expected to give a lecture at the Warburg Haus.
The Martin Warnke Medal was endowed by the Aby Warburg Foundation and Universität Hamburg to mark the retirement of art historian Professor Martin Warnke from the Kunstgeschichtliches Seminar. Since 2005, it has been awarded every three years for academic achievements in the field of cultural studies. The prize is named after Martin Warnke, who was professor of art history at Universität Marburg from 1971 to 1978. From 1979, he taught at Universität Hamburg and served as the director of the Research Centre for Political Iconography at the Warburg Haus in Hamburg. In 1991, he was awarded the Leibniz Prize. He retired in 2002 and was bestowed with the title professor emeritus. Martin Warnke was a member of the Akademie für Sprache und Dichtung. In 2006, he received the Gerda Henkel Prize, an international research prize awarded by the Gerda Henkel Stiftung Düsseldorf, and was granted an honorary doctorate by the Technische Universität Dresden in 2007 and by the Technische Universität Dortmund in 2010. Martin Warnke died on December 11th, 2019, in Halle/Saale.
About the Aby Warburg Foundation
The Aby-Warburg-Stiftung is a foundation under German civil law. The purpose of the foundation is to promote scholarship in Hamburg. It funds the Warburg professorship and places a special emphasis on the promotion of lectures at the Warburg Haus. To this end, it holds conferences, seminars, and symposia in the reading room of the Warburg Haus, which has been allocated to the foundation for such purposes. Lectures also form a central part of the scholarship programme, which is funded by the foundation. The foundation invites acclaimed researchers in the humanities and social sciences to take part in order to make their work known to a wider audience.
The sub-project's topic is the investigation of the amazing convergence between different fundamental researches that strive for anthropological generalization: The specifically human of Homo sapiens sapiens is seen in its ability to cooperate, which is identified both ontogenetically and phylogenetically with transitions to the potential of cooperative pointing. In current practice-theoretical variants, cooperative pointing is also characterized by the fact that it develops and limits skills in a specific form; skills that can be taught and learned through cooperative seeing and pointing (through professional vision in communities of practice) as well as media that can be formed ad hoc or made permanent.
Despite its different manifestations in linguistics, linguistic anthropology, behavioral research, developmental psychology, ethnomethodology, conversation analysis, distributed cognition and various philosophical discussions, this convergence has not produced any overarching terminology. So far, it has mainly been a patchwork of theoretical drafts, the attraction of which is precisely that they combine a basically recognizable convergence with disciplinary clarifications and empirical investigations. This constellation also challenges the history of science, insofar as the corresponding research connects to social-theoretical drafts of the category "interaction" ("Wechselwirkung"), the category that Georg Simmel used for good reasons at the end of the 19th century to justify "socialization" ("Vergesellschaftung") and by various other transfer routes back into German and partially translated: e.g. as "interaction" (from the American translation of "Interaction" in Chicago) and "reciprocity" in Durkheim and Mauss, but also as "mutuality" and "cooperation" (in structuralism and in phenomenology). The sub-project is dedicated to synthesizing this largely unrecognized conceptual and research history(s), including a series of media terms that were derived outside of media studies, primarily from terms of "mediation"; an interdisciplinary specialist history of linguistics, sociology and anthropology, as well as last but not least a media theory of cooperation, which should be able to cope with the oldest and newest media.
Sub-project P02 is oriented towards the history of science and is based on four types of data:
publications
unpublished writings
artifacts, audio and video recordings, notes and other (archive) material
Oral History interviews with central protagonists of the projects and experts on individual parts of the relevant conceptual history
This data is analyzed with a view to the historical development of theories, practices and controversies. In the sense of source criticism, they are scrutinized with regard to their context of origin, the publics addressed and the interests and institutional contexts of those who produced and preserved them.
From Sprachtheorie to Semantics and Cybernetics: Karl Bühler’s ‘Pocketbook on Practical Semantics’
Among the many Central European scholars and intellectuals driven into exile across the Atlantic in the 1930s was the prominent Vienna psychologist Karl Bühler (1879–1963). Bühler had great difficulty establishing himself in his new home of the United States, despite his attempts to adapt his ideas to the American scene. In this paper, we look at one such attempt at adaptation, the unpublished manuscript of Bühler’s “Pocketbook on Practical Semantics”, an effort to turn the Sprachtheorie of his Vienna period into a contribution to the applied semiotics and communications research popular in America at the time. Our paper represents the first detailed examination of the “Pocketbook” manuscript that places it in its context in the history of semiotics.
