Book excerpt: Excerpt from Correspondence of Schiller With Korner, Vol. 1 of 3: Comprising Sketches and Anecdotes of Goethe On the death of Schiller Korner requested his family to return him his Letters, that he might derive some consolation for the loss he had sustained, from the possession of a perfect record of their long-continued friendship. In the edition of Schiller's Works, published by Korner, the latter availed himself to some extent, of this Correspondence. But though the curiosity of the literary world was for a long time excited by the few extracts contained in the sketch of Schiller's Life, prefixed to that edition, to possess the entire Correspondence, Korner could never make up his mind to give to the public, what had grown upon his heart as the most cherished of his mental enjoyments, and his wife, who survived him, respected this feeling of her departed husband so sacredly, that on her death these Letters were found arranged in regular order amongst Komer's papers. They afterwards became the property of his adopted son, Ulrich von Steinbeck, of Freienwald, on the Oder, who, fully appreciating what was due to his country, and knowing what an inestimable treasure was in his hands, permitted the present publication.
