About the Book

This volume of essays is to commemorate Georg Christoph Lichtenberg (1742-1799) on the occasion of the two-hundred and fiftieth anniversary of his birth. The brilliant eighteenth-century German physicist, philosopher/essayist is particularly noted for his significant aphoristic production. The contributors represented are American and Canadian scholars who are treating a variety of topics within Lichtenberg's intellectual and literary sphere. The study seeks to augment Lichtenberg scholarship by illuminating topics not heretofore addressed.

In addition to numerous articles in professional journals, she is the author of Christoph Martin Wieland as the Originator of the Modern Travesty in German Literature, and she is General Editor of the series The Enlightenment: German and Interdisciplinary Studies.

Review :
This collection of essays, looking as it does both backwards from Lichtenberg's time and forward to our own, provides a useful contribution to the growing literature on this enigmatic thinker. (John P. Heins, Lessing Yearbook) ...extremely readable...suited for both an introduction to Lichtenberg and for an addition to the growing body of Lichtenberg research. (Ralph W. Buechler, Monatshefte) Die kleine, ausgewogen komponierte Festschrift oist! nicht nur angenehm lesbar; es ist auch hoechst lesenswert, was die Spezialisten des Eighteenth-Century German und Kennerinnen des Enlightenment aus den USA und Kanada mitzuteilen haben. ...In summa eine willkommmenes und wuerdiges, zudem ansehnlich eingepacktes Jubilaeumsgeschenk. (Bernd Achenbach, Lichtenberg-Jahrbuch)
