ADDISON HERVEY Professor in Columbia University Niiw York LExMCKE & BUECHNER Columbia University Press Bookstore 19 18 EDITOR'S NOTE This syllabus has been developed gradually in the course of twenty years' experience with undergraduate and graduate students of Lessing, Goethe and Schiller, beginning with an introductory course in which two or three works of each author are studied intensively, with collateral reading and essays. Some portions have been printed before 'as manuscript', others have been manifolded for use as pro- seminar programs. Requests from former students and the editor's own convenience have led him to publish the material in this form. The bibliography is selective, but some indispensable titles may have been overlooked and memoranda of these will be thankfully received. ABBREVIATIONS aet.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARATION OF ESSAYS Essays should contain from three thousand to thirty-five hun- dred words and should be in English, unless the writer can compose directly in German with fluency and reasonable correctness of syntax and idiom. The essays are not intended as exercises in German composition. German script is not to be used. Essays are to be based upon the authorities cited, but are not to consist exclusively, or mainly, of excerpts. In every case, how- ever, a number of suitable quotations should be made from German works of reference, as evidence of proper examination of the material assigned. In every instance these quotations are to be translated into English and the original text is to be given in foot-notes, with reference to the volume and page quoted. In the case of extracts from the works or letters of Lessing, Goethe or Schiller this pro- cess is to be reversed; that is, the original is to be quoted in the main body of the essay, the writer's translation in foot-notes, with reference to the page (and lines, if in verse) of the edition used. In the judgment of essays much weight will be given to the ex- cellence of these selections and of the translations; the latter must be original, except that in the case of lyric poems standard trans- lations may be used. Dramatic verse is to be rendered into cor- responding verse or into prose. Literal quotations from English works of reference should be indicated by proper marks and by foot-note with the same precision. When a paragraph follows the source closely, but not in the same language, it is sufficient to state that it is "based upon" such and such an author. The greater part of the essay, however, should be written in the student's own language. The proper method is for the student to make notes of facts and opinions in his own words, avoiding as far as possible the phraseology of the book before him; or better, to record his impressions from memory, immediately after reading a page or paragraph of the book consulted. The material thus obtained from diflferent sources should be correlated and combined for reproduc- tion in the student's own language. For such material no specific references to volume and page are required. It is understood that the substance of these essays is to be obtained largely by compila- tion, but the form is to be original. The writer should aim at originality of substance when opportunity offers, as in the sum- mary of plots and the discussion of characters, and should in- corporate his own opinion on points of criticism. It should be noted that a character in a play or a novel is best described by what he says and does; that accordingly characterizations are to point out significant acts and utterances and are not to consist mainly in the application of descriptive adjectives. In the case of works of Les- sing, Goethe and Schiller not read in course the student should make primarily, and before consulting critical authorities, a study cf the respective text; less emphasis is placed upon the reading of criticism 3 ^21 O^^i a 4 INSTRUCTIONS than in the case of works studied in course. A list of books actually used by the writer must be given at the end of the essay in proper bibliographical form (see Bibliography of this Syllabus). Essays not conforming to the foregoing requirements will be rejected and no credit will be allowed for the work done. Improper use of material, in particular failure to indicate and acknowledge quotations as directed, may result in forfeiture of credit for the course. Special attention is also called to the general requirement of the College as to correct English. An essay seriously deficient in spelling, punctuation, idiom, syntax, or structure will be accepted only with reduced credit and may be wholly rejected, irrespective of the quality of its substance. Essays are to be written legibly, in ink, or typewritten (with careful correction of typographical errors), on paper 8xl0j4 or 8J/2XII inches, and of no other size. One side only is to be used and a margin of IJ^ inches is to remain blank on the left of each page. The pages are to be numbered and the leaves held together with a clip or similar fastener. Five weeks before a given series of essays is due, each student will choose three topics in that series, one of which will be assigned to him, unless circumstances make the assignment of some other topic expedient. Before beginning work he is required to consult the instructor, by appointment, respecting the selection and use of material. Works and letters of Lessing, Goethe and Schiller are referred to in the editions noted at the beginning of each series of topics. Works of criticism are referred to under the several topics by author, volume, and chapter or page. Some of these are equivalent, as will be explained in consultation. Full titles, when not given under the topics, will be found in the Bibliography. Selected essays will be put on reference and the student is required to prepare himself on ten topics under each series assigned. The foregoing instructions are intended for undergraduate students at Columbia. They are retained in order to indicate how the editor uses the Syllabus in connection with essay work. Other teachers will naturally modify them. — The relative scope and the equivalence of editions and of reference works should be made clear. The abun- dance of suitable Schiller literature makes this particularly applicable to that author. The bibliosraphy is intended to meet the needs of classes having access to many different books and of those with small library facilities. — A cursory examination will show that the essay-topics vary widely in difficulty and scope and that some of them may be further delimited or subdivided according to the student's capacity and the intensiveness of treatment desired. The material is intended for undergraduates of at least two grades, as well as for elementary graduate students who have not had similar preparatory training. Many of the topics will be found suitable for proseminar rei)orts (but the difference between such a report and an essay should be emphasized) and a limited amount. of such detailed guidance is not harmful. First Series: Lessing BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTE References to Lessing's Works are to the following editions, cited in the order named and by means of the abbreviations noted: 1. L-M Lachmann-Muncker. — Lessings Samtliche Schriften. Her- ausgegeben von Karl Lachmann (13 Bde. 1838-40. 2. Aufl. von Maltzahn, 1857). Dritte Auflage neu revidiert von Franz Muncker. 21 Bande (16 of Works, 5 of Corre- spondence). Berlin, 1891-1907. — An index vol. is to follow; in its absence the most convenient 'working edition' is H. 2. H. Hempel. — Lessings Werke. Herausgegeben von Redlich, Gross, Pilger u.s.w. 20 Thcilc (in 13 Biinden). Berlin (1868-79). — The only edition except the Lachmann-Muncker which contains Lessing's correspondence. 3. DNL Kiirschners Deutsche National-Litteratur. Lessings Werke. Hcrausgeg. von Boxbcrger und Bliimner. 14 Theile in 18 Banden. Stuttgart (1883-90). (Price, Mk. 3.50 per vol.) 4. C Cotta. — Lessings Samtliche Werke. Herausgeg. von Hugo Goring. 20 Bande. Stuttgart (1883-85). Cottaschc Bib- liothek der Wcltlit. — Supplement, vol. Lessings Leben (very good, brief). (Price 1 Mark per vol.; sold singly.) The standard edition of Lessing's Works is the Lachmann- Muncker, which is provided with complete critical apparatus and is the final authority on textual questions. The introductions relate to textual matters only. The edition is therefore less adapted to the earlier stages of Lessing study than H or DNL, which (except H Thcilc 1-5) have excellent general introductions and also some notes. C has good brief introductions, but no notes. Editions with English introductions and notes will be mentioned when available. — Only collected ed. (the 'Vademecum') in Lessing's lifetime: G. E. Lessings Schriften. 6 Theile. Berlin. 1753-55 (cf. for Topics 5-9). BIBLIOGRAPHY.— Complete, to 1892, in GOEDEKE'S "Grund- riss". Band IV. 132-154. Annual, since 1890, in "Jahresberichte." Selected, to 1909, in BARTELS' "Handbuch". 193-201. SOURCES. — First-hand information about Lessing's life and works to be found in (a) BRIEFE, which should invariably be consulted in the preparation of essays. Contained in L-M 17, IS and H 20. i. The letters contain much of interest about Lessing's various works, published and planned. For index of references (ar- ranged, in general, chronologically with respect to genesis of works') see 'Namen-Register' in H 20. i., page 856-858. References are made to the letter numbers. Much may also be found in the letters to Lessing (L-M 19-21, H 20. ii.), to which there is no index. 6 BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTE (b) KARL G. LESSING: "Gotthold Ephraim Lessings Leben, nebst seincm . . . littcrarischen Nachlassc." 3 Theile. Berlin, 1793-95. — Biography in vol. 1. Reprinted in Reclam's Univcrsal- Bibliothck, No. 2408-9, — This biography is far from satisfactory, but is valuable by reason of the writer's relationship and consequent intimate knowledge of Lessing's life. (c) CONTEMPORARY CRITICISM.— J. W. BRAUN: "Lessing im Urthcile seiner Zeitgenossen." 3 Biinde. — Reviews of contemp- orary critics, arranged in chronological order. To be consulted for all essays dealing with reception of Lessing's works. BIOGRAPHY AND GENERAL CRITICISM.— The brief "Life of Lessing," by T. \V, ROLLESTON (30 cts.) is the best introduction in English. Excellent brief biography in German (155 p.) by R. M. WERNER (Mk. 1.25). The standard work, superseding all others, is the monumental critical biography by ERICH SCHMIDT. "Lessing." 2 vols. 1884-92. Zweite Aufiage, 1899. Dritte Auflage, 1909. Should be con- sulted whenever cited. Reference is given by page or by Book and Chapter (vol. 1 contains Books 1 and 2; vol. 2, Book 3); for the portion of a chapter relating to the topic assigned, see outline of content at beginning of each volume. JAMES SIME'S "Lessing" (2 vols., 1S77, and in later editions) is the best work in English. ADOLF STAHR'S "G. E. Lessing" (1S39, and in many editions since) is a 'popular' book, without claim to scientific scholarship, but sym- pathetic and written in an easy style. If the reading of Schmidt is found difficult, it may be prefaced with advantage by the corre- sponding portion of Sime or Stahr; in the case of works, by the introduction in H, DNL or C. For either biographical or critical topics Sime and Stahr will not suffice; they must be supplemented by Schmidt or by the special works cited. — The first scholarly biog- raphy was that of Danzel und Guhrauer (1850-54). 2 Bde. 2. Aufi. 1880. Still valuable. Arrangement inconvenient; style difficult. DRAMAS. — Two works of particular value for the study of the principal plays are GUSTAV KETTNER'S "Lessings Dramen" (Sara, Minna, Emilia, Nathan), 1904; and KUNO FISCHER'S "Lessing als Rcformator der Deutschen Literatur." 2 Bande. (Faust-Fragment, Minna, Emilia, Nathan.) — Fischer is brief and very lucid; an ex- cellent introduction to study of plot and characters. Kettner is much more thorough and includes also a study of sources and literary influences; indispensable (Mk. 6.50). — Fischer, Mk. 9.50. Schmidt, Mk. 23. CRITICAL WORKS.— Monumental edition of "Laokoon" by HUGO BLUEMNER. 2. Auflage, 18S0; shorter introd. and commen- tary, by Bliimner, in DNL 9. i. Scholarly English ed. by W. G. HOWARD, 1910, with slightly abridged text; contains also Goethe's "Uber Laokoon" and Herder's "Erstes kritisches Waldchen," the latter very important for the study of Lessing's work. THEOLOGICAL.— Best general discussion is C. SCHREMPPS "Lessing als Philosoph." Two valuable books on special topics are C. HEBLER'S "Lessing-Studien" and E. KRETSCHMAR'S "Les- sing und die Aufklarung." Program of Topics N.B. — Topics or divisions of topics preceded by an asterisk (*) are to be chosen only by advanced students who are specially qualified. Topic-divisions enclosed in parentheses, for example (a), may be chosen singly as subjects for essays. Sub-topics, printed in black letter but not capitalized, are to be treated as divisions of the main subject. The synoptic outline which sometimes follows the topic-title merely suggests important 'headings' for the essay; it is not exhaustive and does not mean that the writer must follow the same order of development. The titles of works referred to only by the author's name will be found in the General Bibliography after the Third Scries of Topics. Read carefully the Instructions and Bibliographical Note on preceding pages before beginning work. 1.

Herausgeg. von Karl Goedeke. 16 Bande. Stuttgart. Cottasche Bibliothek der Welt- literatur. (Price, 1 Mark per vol.; sold singly.) The standard edition is SS, which prints the original text (regard- less of errors) and provides a complete critical apparatus. The text of some of Schiller's works, particularly the earlier ones, became corrupted through careless reprints. The elaborate apparatus of this edition enables the student to trace the history of the text through the various stages of corruption and restoration, and makes it the 'final authority' on questions of variant readings. It has good brief introductions by the general editor, Karl Goedeke, but no notes other than textual, and is therefore less adapted to the earlier stages of Schiller study than B, S or DNL, which have excellent introductions (recommended) and some notes. B has a brief textual apparatus. Of these editions B and DNL are more complete than S, which omits certain variant texts of importance (such as the stage version of "Die Rauber" and "Fiesco", the early form of "Don Carlos"). DNL is the only ed. besides SS td include Schiller's adapta- tions of "Nathan der Weise" and "Egmont." C has brief introduc- tions, but no notes. Like S it is incomplete. The standard critical editions of the unfinished dramas, including "Demetrius," and dramatic fragments are G. Kettner's "Schillers Dramatischer Nachlass" (1895) and "Schillers dramatische Entwiirfe und Fragmente" (1899). Editions of single works with English introductions and notes are mentioned when available. The best 'working edition', on the whole, is B, sup- plemented by vols. 3, 4 and 7 of DNL. The student's library of first- 70 BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTE hand material should also include Jonas's edition of Schiller's letters, Streicher's "Schillers Flucht" and Petersen's or Biedermann's 'Ge- sprache' (see below). No complete edition of Schiller's works appeared during his life. A five-volume ed. of his dramas, with the title "Schillers Theater" was in progress at the time of his death. The first complete ed., in 12 vols., was undertaken by his friend Korner in 1812. Many others followed, including the Hempel ed., uniform with the same publisher's ed. of Lessing and Goethe. All are included in the recent revision of the Hempel editions under the title of 'Goldene Klassiker.' Another recent ed. of Schiller not cited here is that of Otto Giintter und Georg Witkowski.

BIOGRAPHY AND GENERAL CRITICISM.— The brief life by James SIME: "Schiller". Blackwoods Foreign Classics (Price 40c) is recommended as an introduction. For it may be substituted the elementary "Schiller-Buch" of Ernst MUELLER, written in simple German (Pr. 1 Mk.). For more advanced students, the excellent sketch by GOEDEKE in SS 1. 15-96, or T. ZIEGLER'S "Schiller". Leipzig, 1905 (Teubner series. 'Aus Natur und Geisteswelt.') The standard critical biography in English is by CALVIN THOMAS. "The Life and Works of Schiller." New York, 1901. (Price, $1.50.) Of the more recent critical biographies in German three have been left incomplete through the death of their authors. The first two were planned on a monumental scale. (1) RICHARD WELTRICH: "Schiller. Geschichte seines Lebens und Charakteristik seiner Werke." Band 1. Stuttgart, 1899. The one vol. (900 pp.) covers only the period to Schiller's flight from Stuttgart. Contains exhaustive study of "Die Rauber" and the "Anthologie." (2) JAKOB MINOR: "Schiller. Sein Leben und seine Werke. Band I. u. II. (pp. 591, 629) Berlin, 1890. Complete through "Don Carlos." Valuable for study of genesis and sources of four early dramas.— (3) OTTO BRAHM: "Schiller." Bd. I. Bd. II. Erste Halfte. Berlin, 1888, 1892. Complete to 1794.— The best complete work, referred to throughout this Syllabus, is by KARL BERGER: "Schiller. Sein Leben und seine Werke." 2 Bde. (pp. 633, 824) Miinchen, 1904, 1908. (Price, Mk. 14.) Uniform with Biel- showsky's "Goethe". Excellent on the critical side is EUGEN KUEHNEMANN'S "Schiller". Munchen, 1905. (Price, Mk. 6.50). 72 BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Translated by Katherine Royce. 2 vols. Boston and N. Y. 1912 (Pr. $3.00). A splendidly illustrated and well written biography (less emphasis on criticism) by JAKOB WYCHGRAM: "Schiller, dem deutschen Volke dargestellt." Bielefeld u. Leipzig, 1893. — Shorter biographies: OTTO HARNACK: "Schiller". Berlin, 1898. (Pr. Mk. 6.40) A good book (though somewhat uneven in treatment) of moderate size. ALBERT LUDWIG: "Schiller. Sein Leben und Schaffen." Berlin, Wien, 1912. Uniform with Geiger's "Goethe"; less fully illus- trated. (Price, Mk. 6). L. BELLERMANN: "Schiller." Leipzig, Berlin u. Wien, 1901 (Pr. Mk. 5). Uniform with Witkowski's "Goethe"; illustrated. — The first scholarly biography, by Karl Hoffmeister: "Schillers Leben, Geistesentwickelung und Werke." 5 Bde. Stuttgart, 1838-42, is still interesting, particularly for a study of the development of Schiller criticism. The favorite biography was long that by Emil Palleske: "Schillers Leben und Werke." 2 Bde. Berlin, 1858-59 (15. Aufl. 1900). More sympathetic than critical; rhetorical in style. Like Stahr's "Lessing", did important service in popularizing literary biog- raphy. Translated by Lady Wallace: "Life and Works of Schiller." London, 1860. H. Diintzer's "Schillers Leben". Leip. 1881 (transl. by Percy E. Pinkerton, London, 1883) was of minor importance. The first biography in English was by THOMAS CARLYLE, London, 1825. Reprinted in Lovell's Literature Series and in many other edi- tions. Transl. into German, with a preface by Goethe, in 1830. A famous book, valuable in its day for the interest it stimulated among English readers. Contains some appreciative criticism still ivorth reading, but very unequal in treatment and necessarily wholly inade- quate. The "Life of Schiller" by H. W. Nevinson, in the 'Great Writ- ers Series', London, 1889 (uniform with RoUeston's "Lessing" and Sime's "Goethe") is readable in parts, but is sometimes inaccurate and often so unsympathetic as to be uncritical. A brief introduction in H. H. Boyesen's "Goethe and Schiller." The treatment of Schiller in the larger histories of German literature is generally unsatisfactory. CONTEMPORARY CRITICISM.— J. W. BRAUN: "Schiller im Urtheile seiner Zeitgenossen." 3 Bde. Reviews of contemporary critics arranged in chronological order. First-hand material, to be consulted for all topics dealing with the reception of Schiller's works. SPECIAL CRITICISM.— DRAMAS.— The most valuable work for the study of the plays is LUDWIG BELLERMANN'S "Schillers Dramen. BeLtrage zu ihrem Verstandnis." 3 Bde. 4. Aufl. Berlin, 1908. Bellermann's criticism deals with the plot and characters, dis- cussing mooted questions and troublesome passages. Little attention to genesis and none to literary sources and influences, topics treated by Berger, Minor and Thomas. Indispensable to the advanced student and the teacher. More detailed commentary, with formal analysis of plot and structure, in O. FRICK'S "Wegweiser durch die klassischen Schiildramen." 2. und 3. Abteilung. Brief technical analysis in H. Un- bescheid's "Beitrag zur Behandlang der dramatischen Lektiire." The THIRD SERIES: SCHILLER "3 pioneer commentary on Schiller (and other classical authors) was H. Diintzer's "Erlauterungen zu den deutschen Klassikern." Valuable as a collection of material, but diffuse and unnecessarily detailed. — KARL WHITBRECHT'S "SchUler in seinen Dramen". 2. Aufl, Stutt- gart, 1907, contains excellent interpretative criticism, with little tech- nical detail. Suggestive criticism of the characters, especially with reference to stage-production, in H. BULTHAUPT'S Dramaturgic des Schauspiels", Bd. I. ROBERT PETSCH: "Freiheit und Notwen- digkeit in Schillers Dramen". Miinchen, 1905, is a suggestive study of the so-called 'fate-element', which has sometimes been misinter- preted, notably in "Wallenstein" and "Die Braut von Messina." An interesting interpretation of this phase in Wolfgang Kirchbach's "Friedrich Schiller, der Realist und Realpolitiker" (1905). A collec- tion of essays and brief comments (theater notices) which emphasize the reality and the essentially modern features, psychological and political, of Schiller's characters. — Valuable studies dealing with one or more of the dramas are the following (see General Bibliography) : E. Miiller, on "Kabale und Liebe." A. Kontz: "Les Drames de la Jeunesse de Schiller." Karl Werder, on "Wallenstein." W. Fielitz: "Studien zu Schillers Dramen" (Wall., M.S., J. v. O.). G. Kettner, on "VVilhelm Tell." — A book formerly much used (but now less esteemed) in the stud}' of Schiller's dramatic structure and charac- terization is Gustav Frevtag's "Technik des Dramas." 1863. 9. Aufl. 1910. Transl. by MacEwan, Chicago, 1895. A convenient elementary handbook on this subject is Elizabeth Woodbridge's "The Drama. Its Law and its Technique" (1898). — An interesting brief study of the development of Schiller's theory of dramatic form, of the inner technique, by Emil Heusermann: "Schiller's Dramen." Leipzig, 1915 (cf. esp. Chap. IV, on "Wallenstein"). (Another recent contribution to Schiller study, by F. Schnass: "Der Dramatiker Schiller. Dar- stellung seines Werdens und Wesens," Leipzig, 1913, the editor has not been able to obtain. Said to be important.) HISTORY, PHILOSOPHY, ESTHETICS.— An excellent intro- duction to Schiller's philosophical writings by E. C. WILM: "Schil- ler's Philosophy." Boston, 1912, and by E. KUEHNEMANN: SchU- lers philosophische Schriften und Gedichte" (Philosoph. Bibl. Bd. 103). A lucid exposition, in simple style, by KUNO FISCHER: "Schiller- Schriften". Band III. Concise estimate of Schiller's place in the history of German thought in M. KRONENBERG'S valuable "Ge- schichte des Deutschen Idealismus" (Miinchen 1912), Band II. Kap. 15. Convenient critical analyses of the several essays by P. Geyer: Schillers asthetisch-sittliche Weltanschauung." 2 Theile. Concise estimate of historical w^ritings by J. JANSSEN: "Schiller als Histori- ker." — Exhaustive scholarly studies by K. Berger: "Schillers Aesthe- tik." E. Kiihnemann: "Schillers Kantische Studien nsw." K. Toma- schek: "S. in seinem Verhaltnis zur Wissenschaft." F. Ueberweg: "S. als Historiker und Philosoph."
