Turandot

Meer over het boek

The book explores the complex friendship between Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe during the last seventeen years of Schiller's life. Their discussions on aesthetics and philosophy contributed to the Weimar Classicism movement. Schiller's encouragement helped Goethe complete unfinished works, and together they created "Xenien," a collection of satirical poems that critique their philosophical adversaries. This collaboration highlights the interplay between their artistic visions and the cultural impact of their partnership.
