Beschreibung:
From the beginning of her relationship with Johann Christoph Gottsched, Luise Kulmus (later Luise Gottsched) gave her suitor the benefit of her views on morality and literature. In this article I delineate the difference between theri views by interpreting performative acts of giving as represented in her early letters (1730-1735). J.C. Gottsched emerges in this characterization as a transitional figure with strong cultural and literary ties to the gallant culture of the late seventeenth century, while Luise Kulmus emerges as more thoroughly embodying new values of an enlightened middle class and - especially in her nuptial translations of Horace - even anticipating those of the "Empfindsamkeit"
