FRIEDRICH SCHILLER - A WRITER OF FREEDOM AND GERMAN IDEALISM
Abstract
Friedrich von Schiller is one of the most prominent German writers. Along with Goethe, they create the duo of the leading German writers. In addition to this, Schiller plays an important role in world culture. F. von Schiller (1759-1805) was born and developed as a creator in an exceptionally dynamic political and cultural period for Germany and Europe. He even qualifies as one of the protagonists who influenced European dynamism in the political and cultural dimension.
Schiller is known as a poet, historian and philosopher, but priority is given to hıs identity of a playwright. The main theme of his dramas, which will concurrently be the main subject of treatment in this paper, starting from his first drama, is freedom. Even though in his earlier dramas he protects the heart's rights from the violent policy of the princes, in his later works being a good connoisseur of history, as we will hereby confirm, he chooses characters from history.
Therefore, history, submitted sufficient material to the playwright Schiller, who always strives to present the confrontation of man of action with the fate, with an exemplary brilliance and tragedy. Nevertheless, as we will witness, throughout his creativity, he remains faithful to his motive, and that is the motive of freedom. It is with his last completed drama, where the ideal of freedom reaches the culmination that ensures him the leading position in German culture.
