A New Working Paper by Oleg Morozov

Oleg Morozov, junior research fellow of IGITI, published a new working paper "Wilhelm von Humboldt and Berlin University: a New Look at the Origin of the Humboldt Myth." The paper challenges the established view that the Humboldt Myth was constructed during the celebration of the centenary of Berlin University in 1910. The paper concludes that the myth originated from the works by philosopher and pedagogue Friedrich Paulsen before the centenary whose ideas were later developed by his student Eduard Spranger.
