Description
Summary:Alexander (Maurus) Horn was a monk, book agent, secret agent and diplomat in a time of great upheaval. He had a key role in a British information-gathering network. Looking at history through his lens, one leaves the negotiating tables of high diplomacy and dives into the world of seemingly secondary actors in European diplomacy.
Alexander (Maurus) Horn war Mönch, Buchagent, Geheimagent und Diplomat in einer Zeit des großen Umbruchs. Er war ein wichtiger Akteur eines britischen Informationsgewinnungsnetzwerks. Sieht man die Geschichte durch seine Brille, verlässt man die Verhandlungstische der Hochdiplomatie und taucht ein in die Welt von scheinbar zweitrangigen Akteuren der europäischen Diplomatie.
