The more than 30 essays in this volume examine the engagement of
the Enlightenment with esoteric traditions of the Early Modern Era
and the transformative pathways by which Hermeticism, magic,
alchemy, and Kabbalah influenced Spiritualism, Occultism, and
Theosophy. The contributors explore intersections between the
Enlightenment and Esotericism and identify the concerns and
preoccupations that made possible the transition to modern
esotericism.
Der Band dokumentiert die Veranstaltungen des Historikertages in
Halle: Kurzfassungen der etwa 300 Referate und zusammenfassende
Berichte uber die Sektionen, erschlossen durch ein Verzeichnis der

Recently, societies have come in for increasing attention in
research on the 18th century. Earlier the emphasis was on the
so-called 'Enlightenment societies' but now a broader range of
societalization processes have attracted the interest of humanities
scholars and cultural studies experts. Common to them all is an
interest in the emergence of sociability, networks and
communication structures. This is reflected programmatically in the
title of the volume. Studies on individual societies and their
members join with analyses of personal and institutional networks
to form the basis for an emergent picture of the communicative
history of societalization in the 18th century.
