AbstractThe letters by the German-American writer and political scientist Francis Lieber (1798-1872) and the Americanlawyer and linguist John Pickering (1777-1846) to Wilhelm von Humboldt in Berlin, recently discovered and published here for the first time, produce new insight into the cultural interaction between Germany and the United States during an important period of American history. An assessment of these documents may open up new perspectives for German-American Studies.
