This essay aims to offer new and systematic information for those — particularly historians of knowledge and classicists — who are interested in 18th century German reception of Pseudo-Longinus’ On the Sublime (Περὶ ὕψους), “the golden book” of the German Aufklärung. By systematically reporting, for the first time, the content of 30 German book reviews of overall 11 editions and translations of On the Sublime that appeared in 14 “Gelehrte Journale” between 1710 and 1783, this essay seeks to address still neglected sources that hat are crucial to understanding the concrete reception of the treatise in 18th century German-speaking territories.
