Autorenporträt

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.
