title: [S. A. Tissot and his effect on the "Dessau-Wörlitzer Cultural Circle"].
abstract: In the 2nd half of the 18th century, the small Duchy of Anhalt-Dessau was the model of an enlightened State, also in matters of health policy. The author stresses the influence of the Swiss Samuel-André Tissot on both Prince Leopold Friedrich Franz (1740-1817) and his foremost physician, Samuel Friedrich Kretzschmar (1730-1793). Tissot's influence manifested itself also in the early introduction of variolation.
