The Life of August Wilhelm Schlegel, Cosmopolitan of Art and Poetry

This is the first full-scale biography, in any language, of a towering figure in German and European Romanticism: August Wilhelm Schlegel whose life, 1767 to 1845, coincided with its inexorable rise. As poet, translator, critic and oriental scholar, Schlegel's extraordinarily diverse interests and writings left a vast intellectual legacy, making him a foundational figure in several branches of knowledge. He was one of the last thinkers in Europe able to practise as well as to theorise, and to attempt to comprehend the nature of culture without being forced to be a narrow specialist. With his brother Friedrich, for example, Schlegel edited the avant-garde Romantic periodical Athenaeum; and he...

In "The Lawyers, A Drama in Five Acts," August Wilhelm Iffland masterfully intertwines legal themes with human emotion, reflecting the intricate dynamics of justice and morality. Written in the late 18th century, this work exemplifies the Romantic movement, characterized by its focus on individualism and emotional depth. Through compelling dialogue and a carefully constructed narrative arc, Iffland delves into the conflicts faced by his characters, ultimately raising questions about the nature of law and the ethical responsibilities of those who uphold it. Iffland, a prominent figure in German theater, built his reputation not only as a playwright but also as an actor and director. His exper...

Mémoires d'August Wilhelm Iffland, auteur et comédien allemand

  • Categories: Art

QUELQUES personnes, dont l’opinion a beaucoup de prix à mes yeux, m’ont engagé, en publiant mes comédies,. à donner quelques détails sur ma carrière théâtrale. Cette invitation, le plaisir que j’éprouve, en écrivant, à me rappeler les événemens passés, et particulièrement la persuasion où je suis que, dans la route que j’ai choisie, je jouis de plus de repos et de paix intérieure que les autres hommes, tels sont les motifs qui ont donné lieu et qui servent d’excuse à la publication de ces fragmens. Fruit d’une sélection réalisée au sein des fonds de la Bibliothèque nationale de France, Collection XIX a pour ambition de faire découvrir des textes classiques et moins classiques dans les meilleures éditions du XIXe siècle.

A National Repertoire

Friedrich Schiller had a difficult relationship with the theatre world and wrote plays that, though successful on stage, ran counter to contemporary trends. This study sets Schiller in the context of the theatre history of his period by examining the impact on his dramatic production of the circumstances of the two theatres with which he was closely involved, the Mannheim National Theatre and the Weimar Court Theatre, where Goethe was Director. Born in the same year as Schiller, August Wilhelm Iffland was the most prominent actor of his generation and a prolific playwright, whose early career at the Mannheim theatre made him Schiller's rival. Yet later, as Director of the Berlin National Theatre, Iffland helped create a national repertoire with Schiller's dramas as its cornerstone. By analysing the theatrical careers of Schiller and Iffland in parallel, this study explores the developing belief in theatre as a cultural institution. It also illuminates the relationship between Schiller and Goethe as theatre practitioners.
