FRIEDRICH EBERHARD ROCHOW - THE AUTHOR OF THE SCHOOLBOOK "CHILDREN'S FRIEND"

Summary/Abstract: Friedrich Eberhard von Rochow, one generation older than Stanis³aw Staszic, is also known as an author of the schoolbook “Der Kinderfreund”, published first in German in 1776 (part one) and in 1779 (part two), in French and in two Polish translations (1787, 1795). That book was first dedicated to poor peasant children of the Brandenburg region. The aim of the text is to demonstrate the schoolbook in the long tradition of schoolbooks and school texts on the one hand, and as an unusual example of the moral and real education in the religious tradition in the Prussian Enlightenment on the other.
