German 462
Seminar: Friedrich Schiller: Drama and Theory
Full course for one semester. We celebrate in 2005 the 200th
anniversary of Schiller's death. His works, especially his dramas,
made him a classic writer. We will begin the seminar with a "Storm
and Stress" play, Intrigue and Love (1783). With Don
Carlos (1787) we will continue exploring Schiller's work
through a series of history plays, including Wallenstein
(1799) and Maria Stuart (1800). Dramatic and literary theory
will augment the readings. Conducted in English. Students taking
the course for German literature credit will meet once a week in an
extra seminar. Cross-listed as Literature 462.
