Autorenporträt

Friedrich Schiller was a German poet, dramatist, and philosopher who lived from 1759 to 1805. Johann Kaspar Schiller and Elisabeth Dorothea welcomed their second child to the world at Marbach am Neckar, in the Duchy of Württemberg. Although Schiller majored in law at the University of Stuttgart, his interests lay more in history, philosophy, and literature. His debut play, "The Robbers," which was published in 1781, became an instant hit and catapulted him to fame. Strong characters, political concerns, and philosophical nuance are hallmarks of his plays. In his philosophical writings, Schiller emphasized the idea of freedom and maintained that everyone has the right to the freedom to follow their own aspirations. He was appointed professor of philosophy and history at the University of Jena in 1794, when he met Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and became close to him. Schiller had a significant impact on German literature and culture, and his plays and poetry are still read and performed often today. Readers and intellectuals today are still drawn to his perspectives on human nature, freedom, and the arts.
