Friedrich Hebbels Arbeit an Schiller: Die Schiller-Rezeption in Hebbels Ästhetik und Dramatik

The Dramatic Works Of Hebbel, Who In The Final Year Of His Life Received The First Schiller Prize Ever Awarded, Were The Result Of A Continuous Engagement With Schiller's Work. This Engagement Was By No Means One-sided. Hebbel's Reception Of Schiller Is Marked By A Fascinating Ambivalence That Moves Between Critique And Appropriation. It Appears That Even When (or Especially If) One Tries To Write Against Someone, One Ends Up Writing With Them.
