Seize the Book, Jail the Author : Johann Lorenz Schmidt and Censorship in Eighteenth-century Germany Hardback
by Paul S. Spalding
Part of the Central European Studies series
Hardback
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.
