Although research to date has helped in important ways to shed light on the penetration of Burke's 'Enquiry into the German-language area', a comprehensive treatment of this reception as a process distinguished not only by changes over time, but also characterized by regional variations, remains lacking. Based on the lectures on aesthetics by August Gottlieb Meissner (1753-1807) at Prague University in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the paper seeks to illuminate this underexposed regional aspect. The first phase of the reception of the Enquiry took place especially in Berlin immediately after its publication in London in 1757. The second phase can be located mainly in the northern maritime centres of German culture, particularly Koenigsberg, Riga, Hamburg as well as Copenhagen. Christian Garve's translation, published anonymously by Hartknoch in Riga in 1773, and Kant's 'Critique of Judgement' (1790) constitute two peaks of north-German interest in Burke's Enquiry. The intense reception of the 'Critique of Judgement' within German aesthetics around and after 1800 subsequently led to the polemic with the British author becoming a part of Idealist interpretations for the next few decades. Outlining the three centres (and the three corresponding phases) of the German reception of Burke's Enquiry begs the question which of them should be connected with Meissner's remarks concerning Burke's ideas. Leipzig is presented as another important German-language centre disseminating knowledge of Burke's Enquiry, especially in the first half of the Seventies, moreover the decisive intermediary for the penetration of the Enquiry into the south-German Roman Catholic areas, Prague in particular.

The attitudes of Prague naturalists from the second half of the 18th century to Schone Wissenschaften and Aesthetics have not yet been the subject of systematic research. One exception might be the clashes between supporters of the most important Bohemian naturalist Ignaz von Born (1742-1791) and supporters of the University Professor of Schone Wissenschaften Karl Heinrich Seibt (1735-1806), which occurred in the first half of the 1770s. This study investigates the views of Bohemian naturalists during the period starting with the introduction of natural sciences at Prague University in the 1750s until the end of the 18th century when these disciplines came to enjoy a high reputation. The approach adopted here is based on an analysis of the printed and archival materials with the aim of drawing attention to the as yet unknown circumstances, together with the novel approach to traditional topics, headed by the above mentioned dispute between Born and Seibt's supporters.

This article compares the conception of 'die schönen Wissenschaften' of the Prague professor Karl Heinrich Seibt (1735-1806), which he introduced in his inaugural lecture 'Von dem Einflusse der schönen Wissenschaften auf die Ausbildung des Verstandes; und folglich von der Nothwendigkeit, sie mit den höhern und andern Wissenschaften zu verbinden' (1763), with similarly oriented essays of Georg Friedrich Meier, Christian Fürchtegott Gellert, and Johann Gottfried Gottsched. The comparison demonstrates that Seibt followed on from earlier defences of 'die schönen Wissenschaften' presented at the more advanced Protestant universities. Seibt's demand that the 'higher sciences' (höhere Wissenschaften) should be linked with 'die schönen Wissenschaften' was based on ideas that Gellert had touched upon in his inaugural lecture. An emphasis on the cognitive aspects links Seibt with Meier's conception. This conception differed from Meier's and Gottsched's, however, in that Seibt, unlike the two professors, discussed the topic rhetorically rather than as systematic scholarly discourse.

This article considers Karl Heinrich Seibt's (1735-1806) plan for a course in aesthetics at Prague University. First, using archive materials, it presents an historical introduction to the establishment of the chair in 1763. Michael Wogerbauer then compares the linguistic 'modernity' of the manuscript-draft of the syllabus (1763) with the printed version (1764), and Tomas Hlobil analyses the concept of the 'schoene Wissenschaften', which Seibt used in the two texts in four different ways.
