Excerpt from The Philosophy of Schiller in Its Historical RelationsI have endeavored, in working out my sub jcet, to avail myself, as far as possible, of the large and valuable literature which has accumu lated about it during more than a century. I am especially indebted to the admirable trea tises of fiberweg, Tomaschek and Kuno Fischer. Whatever value may attach to the innovations I have made in the traditional treatment (if there be any su...
