Book Synopsis Early French and German defenses of freedom of the press [electronic resource] by : John Christian Laursen
Book excerpt: This volume contains English translations of Elie Luzac's "Essay on Freedom of Expression" (1749) and Carl Friedrich Bahrdt's "On Freedom of the Press and its Limits" (1787). These texts demonstrate that the intellectual resources for defending modern intellectual freedom were not a monopoly of anglophone cultures.
