Spracharbeit und Literaturreform (1617–1650)

This study delves into discourses and practices of translation in the Fruitbearing Society. Specifically, it focuses on the translation work of Prince Ludwig von Anhalt-Köthen, using his Petrarch translation as a case study to analyze the processes and mechanisms behind his productive engagement with texts of foreign linguistic or cultural origin, which was aimed at "elevating the mother tongue."
