Europe: The Space and Time of Reflection: On the Complutense Research Group La Europa de la Escritura

We are currently witnessing a moment in which the emergence of new circumstances in Europe from which to address cultural heritage requires the scientific community to engage in deep reflection. For centuries Europe was the space of reference for the development of knowledge. Over the millennia its soil amassed the successive contributions left behind by the different fields of knowledge like traces of mankind’s intellectual passage. The various cultures that exist today all over the planet are either rooted in Europe or were recognized, studied, assessed and even challenged or subjugated in Europe. It is to this intellectual space that people keen to further and increase their knowledge flocked from all over the world until only recently.
