Description
Friedrich Schiller was the youngest of the so-called Weimar classics and one of the last great representatives of German Enlightenment. His work, interrupted by premature death and forged under harsh life conditions, spans from medicine to historiography, aesthetics, and poetry, with philosophical thought being its cornerstone and foundation. Schiller, not only as an author of theoretical writings but especially as a dramatic poet, proclaimed Enlightenment ideals and developed their systematic grounding in dialogue with older rationalism as well as emerging idealism and romanticism. The presented book, which builds on the author's works about Herder and Goethe, seeks to synthesize Schiller's thought across all areas of his work and to fill a noticeable gap in Czech knowledge of modern German culture, in which it aims to demonstrate the connections between philosophy, literature, and social development.
