About the author
Born in Marbach, Württemberg, in 1759, Friedrich Schiller was trained first in medicine under the strict system of the Duke of Württemberg, but he soon turned toward writing. His early play The Robbers made him famous for its rebellious energy, and he went on to become one of the defining writers of German literature.
Schiller wrote major dramas including Don Carlos, the Wallenstein trilogy, Maria Stuart, and William Tell, and he also worked as a poet, historian, and thinker about art. His writing often explores liberty, moral struggle, and the tension between power and conscience.
He formed a close and important friendship with Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and the two became central figures in Weimar’s literary life. Schiller died in Weimar in 1805, but his plays, ballads, and essays have remained widely read and performed ever since.
