Friedrich Schiller was a German playwright poet and philosopher. During the last seventeen years of his life Schiller developed a productive if complicated friendship with the already famous and influential Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. They frequently discussed issues concerning aesthetics and Schiller encouraged Goethe to finish works that he had left as sketches. This relationship and these discussions led to a period now referred to as Weimar Classicism. They also worked together on Xenien a collection of short satirical poems in which both Schiller and Goethe challenge opponents of their philosophical vision. Francis A. Niccolls hardcover
