News in Times of Conflict traces the development and spread of the newspaper and the development of the printing industry in Germany in the first half of the seventeenth century. Based on an inspection of all printed newspapers of this period, the book offers an overview of regional and thematic reporting and the development of journalistic styles and ethics.
The book offers an examination of the coverage of two major events: the death of the Swedish king Gustavus Adolphus, and the execution of King Charles I of England. These case studies provide the opportunity for a comparison with the newspaper markets in France, England and the Low Countries, and with the provision of news through manuscript newsletters.

Jan Hillgärtner, PhD, is Research Fellow at the Universal Short Title Catalogue. He has published on the history of the German newspaper and is currently preparing a bibliography of German newspapers in the seventeenth century (Brill, 2021).
