The volume examines how different historical notions, experiences, expectations, and suspicions regarding privacy emerged in early modern Saxony. It brings together insights from epistolary studies, women’s history, history of science, environmental history, history of health, church history, and legal history to provide a multidisciplinary perspective of how privacy could be perceived and negotiated in Saxony between the 16th and 17th centuries.
