The digitalisation and visualisation of Comenius’s correspondence was carried out by the Department for Comenius Studies and Early Modern Intellectual History of the Institute of Philosophy, CAS, as part of a larger project of Oxford University called Cultures of Knowledge. What is the aim of the database and what light does it shed on the famous 17th century scholar and pioneering educator?
