Courrier Du Grand-Duché De Luxembourg
The ''Courrier du Grand-Duché de Luxembourg'' was a French-language newspaper in Luxembourg published from 1844 to 1868. On 3 July 1844, the Luxembourg printer Lamort released the inaugural edition of the ''Courrier du Grand-Duché de Luxembourg.'' Just three days previously, on 29 June 1844, he had discontinued the publication of the pro-government ''Journal de la Ville et du Grand-Duché de Luxembourg.'' For the ''Courrier'', he even retained the same banner font as the ''Journal'' without alteration. While the newspaper maintained its visual continuity from the ''Journal'', there was a shift in its political orientation. Emphasising the autonomy of the state, administration, and customs as distinguishing factors for Luxembourg from its neighbors, the ''Courrier'' asserted the need for an organ to defend the country's interests. The ''Courrier'' saw itself as more sensitive to the needs of an independent Luxembourg, and closer to the people. However, since it was written in F ...
