The area of support “history, language and culture” is intended to preserve the heritage of the traditional humanities and foster its further development. In spite of all the new subject areas and interdisciplinary combinations, the connection to “traditional” subjects such as philosophy and theology, which are also caught up in the process of change, remains important. By the same token, this continues to provide an orientation helping to guide scholarly enquiry which can benefit the broader area of the humanities and cultural sciences.
