Die Deutsche Sprache im Zeitalter der Aufklärung – The German Language in the Age of Enlightenment

Joachim-Friedrich Kapp Series 2 of 3 The 18th century marks the beginning of an age of innovation that continues to this day. At first sight, conflicts of old and the emergence of new powers as well as the emergence of a new, industrialized economy seem to be defining for this era. But behind it are fundamental upheavals in art, culture, science and philosophy. This new way of thinking and feeling is what makes the emergence of the modern possible in the first place. "The founding of modernity" therefore not only offers a comprehensive overview of an underestimated century, its events and effects on all the powers of an already networked world. Rather, an entire epoch, including its outstanding minds, is brought back to life here. Quellenangabe: Joachim-Friedrich Kapp, Die Gründung der Moderne. Die Welt im 18.
