Poor rascal of a general who doesn't know any better how much such a head is worth. I wouldn't give six pennies for his." Georg Forster, one of the most engaging German writers of the 18th century and one of the clearest and most outspoken political authors, had been degraded to the status of a petty criminal for his service in the cause of Revolution. He is a classic example of the outsider: born in Poland, raised in England and led to Germany to seek his fortune, at home everywhere and belonging nowhere, an intellectual in permanent exile. Participant and observer of two great world revolu-tions, the knowledge explosion of the 18th century and the French Revolution, Forster became famous for the account of his voyage with Captain Cook, A Voyage Round the World, infamous for his attempt to turn part of Germany into a republic on the French model, His writings on anthropology, history and politics, art, and science were passed over in silence for most of the next hundred and fifty years. The present book explores the works of this essayist whom Friedrich Schlegel already called a "Oassic," and who nevertheless still has something to say to the modern world.
