Frederick II of Prussia

Frederick II of Prussia, later known as Frederick the Great, is a dazzling and contradictory figure - artist and military commander, enlightener and absolute ruler at one and the same time, embodying enlightened absolutism as virtually no other monarch. Already in his youth, Frederick is interested in art and philosophy and abolishes torture immediately upon ascending the throne in 1740. In close contact with such visionaries of the Enlightenment as Voltaire, he seeks to modernise the Prussian state. He ultimately turns Prussia into a great European power through extensive reforms and infrastructure projects - as well as the ruthless deployment of the Prussian army - as in the Silesian wars against Austria. mehr weniger
