The Einstein Center Chronoi investigates time and related aspects such as awareness of time, time management, time reckoning and temporality in interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary formats.
Chronoi will build on the unique cross-institutional cooperation that exists within ancient studies research in Berlin. It will be operated jointly by Freie Universität Berlin (FUB) and Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (HU) in cooperation with the Berlin Brandenburgischen Akademie der Wissenschaften (BBAW), the Deutsche Archäologische Institut (DAI), the Max-Planck-Institut für Wissenschaftsgeschichte (MPIWG), and the Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz (SPK). The application was submitted by the Berliner Antike-Kolleg. It is the first Einstein Center devoted to the humanities.
