Schillerís work on the most remarkable histories and conspiracies in Europe including an section on the Italian Governmentís ìPazzi Conspiracyî of the 15th century. During the last seventeen years of his life 1788-1805 Schiller struck up a friendship with already famous and influential Goethe. They frequently discussed issues concerning new standards literature and art in Germany. This relationship and these discussions led to a period now referred to as Weimar Classicism. This alliance which began the year of this publication lasted until Schillerís early death in 1805 and it came to form a part of the foundation of 19th-century Germanyís understanding of itself as a culture and after Bismarckís unification of Germany as a nation. <br/><br/> Siegfried Lebrecht Crusius hardcover books

4833One large folding facsimile plate. 16 pp. Small 8vo orig. printed wrappers stitched as issued and bound in modern wrappers. Berlin J.A. Stargardt 1859. One of a very few surviving copies of this bookseller's catalogue of a significant portion of the library of Friedrich von Schiller 1759-1805 the German poet philosopher historian and playwright. In 1851 the bookseller and auctioneer Stargardt acquired this part of Schiller's library from his son Karl. It proved difficult to sell and in 1859 he produced the present catalogue selling the collection in 1860 to the Hamburg bookseller I.S. Meyer. Meyer also had difficulties selling the collection and in 1862 he held a lottery which was won by a merchant named Helmcke who received the 156 books and the manuscript list as his prize. Helmcke gave the collection to the Hamburger Stadtbibliothek in 1867 where it was absorbed into the general collections and the duplicates dispersed. In 1905 the remaining 114 volumes were reassembled and shelved separately. The engraved folding plate is a facsimile of a manuscript list of the books in Schiller's hand. Fine copy preserved in a green morocco slipcase. ❧ Roland Folter Deutsche Dichter- und Germanistenbibliotheken 664. unknown books
