Johann Georg Adam Forster (1754-1794) accompanied James Cook on his second voyage (1772-1775) and became a Jacobin (1792-1793). His distinctly European outlook as a cultural mediator between England, France, and Germany in scientific and political terms explains, to a large degree, the difficulties that German literary critics had in dealing with Forster's nonfiction writing. The first part of this book relates readings - spanning from the late 1790s through 1989 - of Forster's life and work to the development of institutionalized German studies, the second part discusses the secondary literature on individual texts by Forster guiding the reader to the most important critical analyses.
