Description
Summary:In 1808, the editor of the Times, John Walter II, decided to send his best journalist to Spain to cover the beginnings of the Peninsular War. Henry Crabb Robinson set up in our country his experience as correspondent in Altona, where he covered the Napoleon's politics in Europe. Educated in the German Philosophy and literature, Robinson spent some time in Altona analysing the diaries of the continent and making a comparison with the British ones. From this overview, he wrote a memo to John Walter pointing out the necessary changes for the International news of The Times. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
