Irritation, Faszination, Komplikation - Gegensätze in der deutschen Shaftesbury-Rezeption. Das Buch wurde mit dem Ernst-Reuter-Preis ausgezeichnet. Die Frage nach der Bedeutung Anthony Ashley Coopers (1671-1713), des Dritten Earl of Shaftesbury, für das deutsche 18. Jahrhundert ist eine Schlüsselfrage der Aufklärungsforschung. Die ältere Germanistik beantwortete sie enthusiastisch: Sie begriff Shaftesburys Einfluss als zentral für die Ästhetik des Sturm und Drang und der Klassik. Die Quellen sprechen jedoch eine andere Sprache. Shaftesburys eigentliche Wirkung liegt in der Aufklärung. Mark-Georg Dehrmann beschreibt, unter welchen Komplikationen Shaftesbury der deutschen Aufklärung bekannt wurde und wie er dennoch zentrale Debatten des 18. Jahrhunderts stimulierte. Dazu werden erstmals umfassend die in den Quellen belegten Auseinandersetzungen in den Blick genommen. Die Zeitschriftenlandschaft, das Verhältnis von Theologie und Aufklärung, die Entwicklung der aufklärerischen Poetik und Kritik, die Entstehung eines modernen Literaturbegriffs, schließlich der Topos vom prometheischen Schöpfer-Dichter gehören zu den behandelten Themen. Leibniz, Gottsched, Spalding, Nicolai, Mendelssohn, Wieland und Herder sind nur einige der Protagonisten, deren Auseinandersetzung mit Shaftesbury minutiös rekonstruiert wird.

This book explores the first encounters between Samoans and Europeans up to the arrival of the missionaries, using all available sources for the years 1722 to the 1830s, paying special attention to the first encounter on land with the Lapérouse expedition. Many of the sources used are French, and some of difficult accessibility, and thus they have not previously been thoroughly examined by historians. Adding some Polynesian comparisons from beyond Samoa, and reconsidering the so-called ‘Sahlins-Obeyesekere debate’ about the fate of Captain Cook, ‘First Contacts’ in Polynesia advances a hypothesis about the contemporary interpretations made by the Polynesians of the nature of the Europeans, and about the actions that the Polynesians devised for this encounter: wrapping Europeans up in ‘cloth’ and presenting ‘young girls’ for ‘sexual contact’. It also discusses how we can go back two centuries and attempt to reconstitute, even if only partially, the point of view of those who had to discover for themselves these Europeans whom they call ‘Papalagi’. The book also contributes an additional dimension to the much-touted ‘Mead-Freeman debate’ which bears on the rules and values regulating adolescent sexuality in ‘Samoan culture’. Scholars have long considered the pre-missionary times as a period in which freedom in sexuality for adolescents predominated. It appears now that this erroneous view emerged from a deep misinterpretation of Lapérouse’s and Dumont d’Urville’s narratives.

The life of Henry Hotze encompasses the history of antebellum Mobile, Confederate military recruitment, Civil War diplomacy and international intrigue, and the development of a Darwinian-based effort to find scientific evidence for differences among human "races." When civil war broke out in his adopted country, Hotze enthusiastically assumed the mindset of the young Southern secessionist, serving first as newspaper correspondent and Confederate soldier until the Confederate government selected him as an agent, with instructions to promote the Southern cause in London. There he founded, e
