0.01 sec.

Born Apr. 26, 1701, in Wittenburg, Mecklenburg; died Oct. 30, 1760, in Eulenburg, Saxony. German satirist. Son of a pastor.

The chief objects of Liscow’s satire were the church and scholasticism (treated in such lampoons as Broken Windows. . ., 1732; Briondes the Younger, 1732; and A Thorough Proof of the Superiority and Necessity of Wretched Scribblers, 1734) and the hypocrisy and cowardice of men of letters who fawn upon princes and the aristocracy.
