Medien der Aufklärung – Aufklärung der Medien

Overview & Synopsis

The Enlightenment as an epoch and intellectual movement was closely linked to a new way of using media. New formats established themselves not just in the centers of the Enlightenment but also on their peripheries. What were the most influential media practices of the Baltic Enlightenment, who were their most important proponents, and at whom were they addressed? This book presents the Baltic as a prime example of a European Enlightenment region.
