Just now I was in the library to four books to return and of course I could not resist and have borrowed books again. However, I have extra care that there are thin books I can read fast. Nevertheless, my sub has grown again and that on 19 books. Here is a brief overview:
The Maid of Orleans by Schiller
With his published and first performed in 1801 drama 'The Maid of Orleans', Friedrich Schiller in his lifetime success. The history of the Lorraine peasant girl Joan of Arc, which - with reference to divine inspiration - the French troops from victory to victory was introduced, then in British hands and was burned as a witch in 1431, Schiller moved out of the limits of mere historical drama - Johanna Schiller is not burned at the stake, but experienced the apotheosis on the battlefield. Formally takes this "romantic tragedy" a special place in Schiller's works: the dramatic development is interrupted by lyrical passages that verse forms are unusually diverse, ranging from blank verse to the formal shape of the punch through to the iambic trimeter, the Dramenvers the ancient tragedy. Text in the new spelling. - With notes by Ulrich Karthaus and a chronology of historical events.
