Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Friedrich Schiller: Comprehending an Examination of His Works Under such corroding and continual vexations an ordinary spirit would have sunk at length, would have gradually given up its loftier aspirations, and sought refuge in vicious indul gence, or at best have sullenly harnessed itself into the yoke, and plodded through existence, weary, discontented, and broken, ever casting hack a hankering look upon the dreams of youth, and over without power to realize them. But Schiller was no ordinary character, and did not act like one. Beneath a cold and simple exterior, dignified with no artificial attrae tions, and marred in its native amiableness by the incessant obstruction, the isolation and painful destitutions under which he lived, there was concealed a burning energy of soul, whichhis fortune had prevented the natural development of his mind; his faculties had been cramped and misdirected; but they had gathered strength by opposition and the habit of self-dope n deuce which it encouraged. His thoughts, unguided by a teacher, had sounded into the depths of his own nature and the mysteries of his own fate; his feelings and passions, un shared by any other heart, had been driven back upon his own, where, like the volcanic fire that smoulders and fuses in secret, they accumulated till their force grew irresistible.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Works of Friedrich Schiller I have wished to give a trustworthy account of Schiller and his works on a scale large enough to permit the doing of something like justice to his great name, but not so large as in itself to kill all hope and chance of readableness. By a trustworthy account I mean one that is accurate in the matters of fact and sane in the matters of judgment. That there is room for an English book thus conceived will be readily granted, I imagine, by all those who know. At any rate Schiller is one of those writers of whom a new appreciation, from time to time, will always be in order.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Friedrich Schiller HE period of modern classical literature in Germany may almost be said to have begun in 17 59, the 'year of Schiller's birth; for in that year appeared the Letters on literature, in which Lessing criticised recent publications for the benefit of a friend who had been wounded at the beginning of the Seven Years' War, and delivered German poetry and letters from the false and artificial canons that had held sway since the time when the Thirty Years' War obliterated almost every genuine and national element in German thought. It may be noticed, also, that in the same year Rousseau was finishing the Nouvelle He'loise, the in uence of which on literature and popular sentiment was to be felt at least as fully in Germany as in France.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from William Tell: A Historical Play From the German of Schiller The Quarterly Review, on the same subject observes The noble Simplicity of Helvetic Manners is admirably painted in william tell, and the Enthusiasm of the Nation, in favour of Liberty, represented in colours the most captivating. This Piece, which breathes the cordiality of unsophisticated Nature, the rustic heroism of Men, whose Courage defied the gigantic power of Austria and whose Religion proceeded from the heart, deserves to have been acted at their National Festival, when, after enjoying Independence for 500 years, the Swiss celebrated the Birthday of their Freedom. It is perhaps (adds the Reviewer) the only Tragedy in any language that has been improved by omitting the fifth Act. However just or ingenious the contrast which is presented between the characters of Tell and John the Parricide, and the motives by which they were respectively instigated, to the death of their Enemies, the introduction of the latter can only serve to divert the attention and interest of the Spectator from the principal Catostrophe which terminates with the death of Gessler and the deliverance of Switzerland.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Schiller's Maria Stuart Preceding Schiller's birth and in the first years following it, his father was absent on military duty most of the time, but in 1764 he settled with his family at Lorch. During the three years they lived here, the boy received elementary instruction from Moser, the worthy village pastor. His influence fostered the pious tendencies which the precept and example of his parents had instilled, and it was early decided that he should become a clergyman. Accordingly when, at the close of 1766, Captain Schiller removed to Ludwigsburg, the temporary capital of Wurtemberg, Friedrich entered the Latin School and began his preparation for subsequent theological studies. The pedantic formality and severe discipline of the school were a new and un pleasant experience for him, but he made satisfactory progress and became a general favorite. In early childhood he gave evidence of poetic talent, and it was carefully encouraged by his mother, whose tender and affectionate disposition did much to mould his character.

Download or read book Mary Stuart written by Friedrich Schiller and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-18 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Stuart: A Tragedy in Five Acts From the German of Schiller The first performance of Mary Stuart in this country in English is said by C01. T. Allston Brown, whose dicta as to theatrical matters are bound to command respect, to have been given at the Walnut Street Theatre, in Philadelphia, during the season of 1865-66, by Jean Davenport Lander; but it has been found impossible to verify this statement. It has been found equally impossible to identify the Mary Stuart produced at the Tremont Theatre, Boston, on December 13, 1829, by Mrs. J. R. Duff, at a single performance for this lady's benefit, as a translation of Schiller's play, though the cast of characters, so far as it can be traced, makes this seem to be the fact. Mrs. Duff was the Mary Stuart of this performance, Mrs. G. Barrett the Elizabeth, Mr. Scott the Leicester, and Mr. W. H. Smith the Mortimer. This piece, what ever its source, does not seem to have been repeated by Mrs. Duff or any other, in Boston or elsewhere; but if, as seems probable, it was a translation of Schiller's play, Its unique production slenderly carries off the honors of priority. But whether or not Mrs. Lander played the part in 1865 in Philadelphia in some experimental version, and whatever the origin of Mrs. Duff's isolated performance, Mrs. Lander may fairly be credited with having created the part of Mary Stuart in the United States, since her first appearance in a version of the play prepared expressly for her use by herself and Mr. George Becks can he established definitely, and since her presentation of the character, thus initiated, had a national and not merely a local recognition and repute.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Robbers by Friedrich Schiller This play is to be regarded merely as a dramatic narrative in which, for the purpose of tracing out the innermost workings of the soul, advantage has been taken of the dramatic method, without otherwise conforming to the stringent rules of theatrical composition, or seeking the dubious advantage of stage adaptation. It must be admitted as somewhat inconsistent that three very remarkable people, whose acts are dependent on perhaps a thousand contingencies, should be completely developed within three hours, considering that it would scarcely be possible, in the ordinary course of events, that three such remarkable people should, even in twenty-four hours, fully reveal their characters to the most penetrating inquirer. A greater amount of incident is here crowded together than it was possible for me to confine within the narrow limits prescribed by Aristotle and Batteux.
