His marriage to his first cousin Maria Anna Sophia of Saxony in 1747 remained childless.

17686602Leipzig: Weidmanns Erben und Reich 1768. Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo 200 x 121mm. 96pp. Engraved vignette to title depicting arguing characters. Scarce first edition. Original marbled paper board backed with morocco strip lettered in gilt to second compartment; light occasional foxing light edgewear. The German poet and author Christoph Martin Wieland sometimes called the German Voltaire was a typical stylist of the German rococo period. Wieland wrote the Musarion oder die Philosophie der Grazien Musarion or the Philosophy of the Graces in 1768 to open his series of ìlight and gracefulî romances in verse which appealed so irresistibly to his contemporaries and acted as an antidote to the sentimental excesses of the subsequent Sturm und Drang movement. His Musarion can be considered a continuation of his earlier novel Agathon 1766-1767 but the conflict between sensuous delight and purity of character is here softened by a spirit of renunciation. The overarching themes supported the balanced appreciation of the roles of both philosophy and love in a ìgracefulî life. <br/><br/> Leipzig: Weidmanns Erben und Reich hardcover books

He spend his boyhood in Biberach until he was sent to the school of Kloster monastery Bergen in 1747. When he left the school in 1749 he widely read the Latin classics and leading contemporary French writers; amongst German poets his favourites were Brockes and Klopstock. During the summer of 1750 he fell in love with Sophie Gutermann a cousin of his and this love affair inspired him to plan his first ambitious works Lobgesang auf die Liebe 1751 followed by Die Natur der Dinge 1752 a didactic poem in six books of Alexandrine verse. In 1750 he went to the University of Tübingen as a student of law but his time was mainly taken up with literary studies. The poems he wrote at the university are pietistic in tone and dominated by the influence of Klopstock. They attracted the attention of the Swiss literary reformer J.J. Bodmer who invited Wieland to visit him in Zürich in the summer of 1752. Wieland remained in Switzerland until 1760 where he <br /> spent the last year at Bern as a private tutor.Wieland as Gotthold Lessing said "forsook the ethereal spheres to wander again among the sons of men." quoted from the Encyclopedia Britannica Wieland met again his early love Sophie Gutermann who had become the wife of Hofrat La Roche then manager of Count Stadion's estates. The former poet of an austere pietism now became the advocate of a light-hearted philosophy from which frivolity and sensuality were not excluded. In Don Sylvia von Rosalva 1764 a romance in imitation of Don Quixote he held up to ridicule his earlier faiths and in the Comische Erzählungen 1765 he gave his extravagant imagination only too free a rein. More important is the novel Geschichte des Agathon 1766-1767 in which under the guise of a Greek fiction Wieland described his own spiritual and intellectual growth. This work which Lessing recommended as "a novel of classic taste" quoted from the Encyclopedia Britannica marks an epoch in the development of the modern psychological novel. Of equal importance was Wieland's translation of twenty-two of Shakespeare's plays into prose 8 vols. 1762-1766; it was the first attempt to present the English poet to the German people in something approaching entirety.Wieland married in 1765 and between 1769 and 1772 was professor of philosophy at Erfurt. With the exception of some years Weimar remained Wieland's home until his death. Here in 1773 he founded Der teutsche Merkur which under his editorship 1773-1789 became the most influential literary review in Germany. Without creating a school in the strict sense of the term Wieland had a strong influence on the German literature of his time. The verse-romance and the novel--more especially in Austria--benefited by his example and even the Romanticism of the 19th century borrowed from him in its excursions into the literatures of southern Europe. The qualities which distinguish his work his fluent style and light touch his careless frivolity in contrast to poetic depth show him to have been in literary temperament more akin to Ariosto and Voltaire than to the more spiritual and serious leaders of German poetry; but these very qualities in Wieland's poetry introduced a balancing element into German classical literature and added materially to its fullness and completeness. This is not to say however that Wieland shouldn't be counted among the great German poetic geniuses. Kant himself refers to Wieland in the same sentence as Homer citing him as an example of Kant's idea of artistic genius.
