Goethe And Schiller's Xenions (1896) - Von Goethe Johann Wolfgang

Goethe and Schiller's Xenions is a collection of epigrams and satirical poems written by the two German literary giants, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Friedrich Schiller. First published in 1797, the Xenions were a collaborative effort between the two writers, who exchanged witty and often scathing verses in response to each other's work. The poems cover a wide range of topics, from politics and society to art and literature, and offer a glimpse into the intellectual and cultural climate of late 18th-century Germany. This edition of the Xenions, published in 1896, features an introduction by the editor, as well as notes and commentary on the poems themselves. It is a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of German literature and culture, as well as anyone interested in the history of satire and epigrammatic poetry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
