Includes the plays The Robbers and Passion and Politics Two plays concerned with tyranny and freedom. Schiller's first play, The Robbers (1781), was written in great secrecy under the prison like conditions of Württenberg's Karlsschule: Karl, the son of a count, is disinherited through the machinations of his brother Franz, and, turning his back on a social order he finds unjust and corrupt, becomes the leader of a band of robbers. In Passion and Politics (1784), a 'bourgeoise tragedy', the love between Louise, a musician's daughter, and Ferdinand, a politician's son, crosses an unbridgeable social divide. One of the great figures in German literature, Friedrich Schiller (1759-1805) was one of the most significant playwright of his day, numbering among his devotees Coleridge and Carlyle. His plays are known for their originality of form, vivid stage imagery and powerful language, faithfully rendered in Robert David MacDonald's acclaimed translations.
Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller was a German playwright, poet, philosopher, and historian, widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in German literature and thought. Born on November 10, 1759, in Marbach am Neckar, Germany, Schiller grew up in a devoutly Protestant family. He became one of the central figures of the German classical period, alongside Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Schiller is best known for his dramatic works, including William Tell, The Robbers, and Don Carlos, which explore themes of freedom, morality, and the struggle against tyranny. His poetry, such as Ode to Joy, also gained significant acclaim, and it is especially remembered for being later set to music by Ludwig van Beethoven in the final movement of his Ninth Symphony. Schiller's philosophical writings and historical works further solidified his status as a leading intellectual of his time. He had one son, Ernst Friedrich Wilhelm Schiller. Schiller passed away at the young age of 45 on May 9, 1805, in Weimar, Germany, leaving behind a lasting legacy in the fields of literature and philosophy.
