Der Briefwechsel zwischen Sigmund von Birken und Georg Philipp Harsdörffer, Johann Rist, Justus Georg Schottelius, Johann Wilhelm von Stubenberg und Gottlieb von Windischgrätz - Frühe Briefwechsel

The volume contains the first publication of the five most important of the early epistolary relationships between Sigmund von Birken and various literary figures and patrons. They are instructive sources for the biographies, works, and print careers of all those involved, as well as for a finer perception of the role played by literature and literary figures in 17th century German-speaking society.
