Bøker av Lesley Sharpe

This book traces the attempts of successive generations of philosophers and literary critics to expound the works of Schiller and deal with the linguistic and systematic problems they present.

In this important study Lesley Sharpe assesses Schiller's development as a dramatist, poet and thinker against the background of his life and of social, political and literary events in the last two decades of the eighteenth century, placing particular emphasis on his engagement with the relationship between art, morality and politics.
