The Camp of Wallenstein

Mehr zum Buch

The book explores the complex friendship between Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe during the last seventeen years of Schiller's life. Their discussions on aesthetics significantly contributed to the Weimar Classicism movement. Schiller's encouragement helped Goethe complete unfinished works, and together they created "Xenien," a collection of satirical poems that critique their philosophical adversaries. This collaboration not only highlights their literary contributions but also reflects their deep intellectual engagement.
