The book series Fragmenta mundi addresses the fragment as an interdisciplinary research object and as a phenomenon that involves many aspects of human knowledge and experience. The overall aims of this series are implied in its Latin basis fragmentum, which designates an object that results from breaking something. This ‘new’ object comes into being with a doublefold nature: it is both pars pro toto of the object it comes from, and irreversibly other than it.
The series includes authored monographs and edited volumes. Contributes may follow a mono-, pluri-, or interdisciplinary approach, provided they offer a view of the fragment as a complex object that requires to be looked at from more perspectives to be fully understood.
