Ausgewählte Briefwechsel aus dem Nachlass von Karl August Böttiger: Karl August Böttiger – Briefwechsel mit Désiré Raoul-Rochette

This critical edition presents the 1824–1835 correspondence between Böttiger and Raoul-Rochette, which has survived nearly in its entirety. The letters address the sharing of scientific knowledge in Europe and the rising field of archeology, which had to demonstrate its independence from philology. This annotated volume reproduces the original French letters with German translations.
