Encountering the Global in Early Modern Germany
The Dutch Republic and the Birth of Modern Advertising, by Arthur der Weduwen and Andrew Pettegree
It is a promising and alluring topic: in their study, Andrew Pettegree and Arthur der Weduwen explore the ‘birth of advertising’ in the seventeenth-century Dutch Republic. They introduce their readers to a fascinating world of information, people and things—a world that proves to be a microcosm of contemporary Dutch society. The authors explain that in some regards, the book itself has grown out of the allure of the topic and material: its first …

Ein Schlüssel für zwei Truhen. Diplomatie als interkulturelle Praxis am Beispiel einer westafrikanischen Gesandtschaft nach Frankreich (1670/71)
The arrival of an embassy from the West African kingdom of Allada in Paris 1670 was a rather singular event in its time. Tracing the embassy’s origins and its journey within the Atlantic world, the essay addresses three main points: First, it demonstrates how actors outside ‘official’ diplomatic elites, here the representatives of trading companies, could assume diplomatic roles.
