Starting with his dissertation (in German) on comparative studies entitled “A Geography of the Early Enlightenment: London, Leipzig, Zürich,” his publications and presentations have analyzed major aspects of 18^th Century German Enlightenment, as well as the heritage of Enlightenment in post-1945 German writings. His current work in progress deals with perspectives on the concept of tolerance during the Enlightenment and a textbook for advanced German language courses.
