The story covers many facets of life in eighteenth-century Germany, including its complex political structure, endemic religious strife, the publishing industry, and intellectual life in the universities and courts.
Full Description
Under the patronage of two south German nobles, Johann Lorenz Schmidt published an annotated translation of the Bible's opening books in 1735. The story of the controversy the work aroused and of its eventual suppression sheds light on many aspects of the eighteenth century, as well as the nature of censorship in our time.
