Renate Johne
Renate Johne (born January 3, 1940 in Chemnitz ) is a German classical philologist and epigraphist .
Renate Johne, née Fiedler, received her doctorate in 1981 from the Humboldt University in Berlin with a thesis on Willibald Pirckheimer and the Plato image of German Renaissance humanism . Probably the most important work of the wife of the ancient historian Klaus-Peter Johne was the Lexicon of Antiquity , which was published jointly with Johannes Irmscher . The editorial work was mainly done by Johne, who was employed at the Central Institute for Ancient History and Archeology of the Academy of Sciences of the GDR , whose own dissertation project was repeatedly impaired. The lexicon was so successful that it had a double-digit print run in East and West Germany. In addition, she was involved in the work on several other large-scale projects at the academy, such as the two-volume cultural history of antiquity . Later, Johne worked at the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences , where she was deputy head of the project “German Inscriptions of the Middle Ages”. She also translated Plato's Das Gastmahl or about love into German.
