This minilecture looks into the dynamic relationship of the booming coffeehouse culture and that of periodicals, especially of Joseph Addison’s and Sir Richard Steele’s The Spectator (1711-1712). The minilecture offers a glimpse into both the positive perception of the coffeehouse culture, i.e. its democratizing effect and contribution to the dissemination of learning, and its negative perception of it, i.e. as site of sedition and political unrest. We will also parse the so called ‘culture of curiosity’ and its contribution and connection to coffeehouse culture.
[E minióra a 18. századi angol kávéházi és sajtó kultúra, különösen az esszéírást évszázadokra meghatározó Joseph Addison és Sir Richard Steel szerkesztette The Spectator folyóirat (1711-1712) dinamikus kapcsolatát vizsgálja. Az óra egyrészt, bepillantást ad a kávéházi kultúra pozitív megítélésébe, azaz demokratizáló hatásába, másrészt annak negatív felfogásába, amely a kávéházat a lázadás, a politikai forrongás és felforgató eszmék helyszíneként látja.]
