Specifikacia Dare to Know: Prints and Drawings in the Age of Enlightenment Kopp Edouard
An A to Z exploration of the Enlightenment's quest for understanding and change, as revealed in the era's prints and drawingsAre volcanoes punishment from God? What do a fly and a mulberry have in common? What utopias await in unexplored corners of the earth and beyond? During the Enlightenment, questions like these were brought to life through an astonishing array of prints and drawings, helping shape public opinion and stir political change. Dare to Know overturns common assumptions about the age, using the era's proliferation of works on paper to tell a more nuanced story. Echoing the structure and sweep of Diderot's Encyclopdie, the book contains 26 thematic essays, organized A to Z, providing an unprecedented perspective on more than 50 artists, including Henry Fuseli, Jean-Honor Fragonard, Francisco Goya, Jean-Baptiste Greuze, William Hogarth,
