Overview

The editor's introduction and the eighteen essays in this book seek to correct, avoid, or overcome certain trammels and aporias in previous research on early modern German culture. The language of boundary work enters into the authors' critical vocabulary with varying degrees of explicitness. This book's challenge to historical norms comes from a strong commitment to investigate questions in terms of the Sinnkonstruktion particular to early modern German cultural forms.
