The Research Training Group Media Historiographies is a joint project of the Bauhaus-University Weimar, the University Erfurt and the Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena. It attempts to ascertain the manner in which the question of a "history of media" intersects the question of "media of history". The double focus is reflected in the concrete material and contexts the Research Training Group is planning on analyzing: on the one hand, the nineteenth centurys shift in media development, in the course of which mass media, new media technologies of communication, and media of visualization supplement; on the other hand, the emergence of modern historical concepts which as of the late eighteenth century centered on the persisting tension between event and process.
