Maria Stuart

AvFriedrich Schiller

Häftad, Svenska, 2025

269 kr

Skickas

I en orolig värld av intriger och maktspel står två drottningar mot varandra: Elisabeth I av England har låtit fängsla sin rival Maria Stuart av Skottland, som även hon gör anspråk på Englands tron. Men till vilket pris? Genom en skarp iakttagelse av maktens korridorer under tre händelserika dagar skildrar Friedrich Schillers klassiska drama tidlösa frågor om makt, frihet, skuld och rättvisa men också de val som formar historien.

"Maria Stuart" räknas till den tyska litteraturens mest betydande dramer. Volymen rymmer utöver dramat även Schillers kulturpolitiska essä "Teatern betraktad som moralisk institution". Magnus Lindman står för nyöversättningen av båda verken.

Boken inleds med ett förord av Sara Stridsberg, och avslutas med en bakgrundsteckning och kommentarer av Christo Burman.

Greklands gudar och andra dikter

AvFriedrich Schiller

Häftad, Svenska, 2021

Skickas

Friedrich Schiller är en av världslitteraturens giganter. Genom hans dikter talar en upphöjt estetisk idealism om människans relation till frihet, sanning och skönhet, ämnen som bortom den antika prägeln knappast upphört att vara aktuella.

Schillers poesi har varit mindre uppburen under 1900-talet och ett sekel har gått sedan ett större urval gavs ut i svensk nyöversättning. Det är hög tid att Schiller tillgängliggörs i uppdaterad språkdräkt och i en utförligt kommenterad utgåva.

Greklands gudar och andra dikter rymmer exempel från hans olika poetiska genrer: från det berättande till det centrallyriska, från det upproriska till det sedelärande, från klagosång till jublande dryckesvisa och från vitsiga epigram till långa tankedikter.

Översättningarna är gjorda av Jimmie Svensson, verksam som forskare inom litteraturvetenskapen, där han särskilt ägnat sig åt versifikatorisk form. Han har också försett boken med en inledning där dikterna, Schiller och eftervärldens bilder av denne presenteras närmare.

Robbers and Wallenstein

AvF. Lamport,Friedrich Schiller

Häftad, Engelska, 1979

180 kr

Skickas

Friedrich Schiller (1759-1805) was one of the most influential of all playwrights, the author of deeply moving dramas that explored human fears, desires and ideals. Written at the age of twenty-one, The Robbers was his first play. A passionate consideration of liberty, fraternity and deep betrayal, it quickly established his fame throughout Germany and wider Europe. Wallenstein, produced nineteen years later, is regarded as Schiller's masterpiece: a deeply moving exploration of a flawed general's struggle to bring the Thirty Years War to an end against the will of his Emperor. Depicting the deep corruption caused by constant fighting between Protestants and Catholics, it is at once a meditation on the unbounded possible strength of humanity, and a tragic recognition of what can happen when men allow themselves to be weak.

This dramatic story recounts Mary, Queen of Scots's remaining days held captive in Fotheringay Castle. In scenes alternating between Mary's prison and Elizabeth's court at Westminster, Schiller's play gradually builds a compelling picture of a tragic heroine rising above her suffering to gain in insight and spiritual depth. In contrast Elizabeth, in turmoil over the correct course of action for her country and trapped by the cruel demands of Realpolitik, can achieve worldly victory only at a terrible moral cost. Culminating in a fictitious meeting of the two women, Mary Stuart is a dramatic meditation on the nature of political power, but also a deeply moving human tragedy that captures the emotional essence of complex events.

On the Aesthetic Education of Man

AvFriedrich Schiller

'Man defines himself by his deeds - and what kind of image of man do we see in the mirror of our present times?' The poet and dramatist Friedrich Schiller was also a profound philosopher, who described his work On the Aesthetic Education of Man as 'the best thing that I have done in my life'. This impassioned treatise analyses politics, revolution and human nature to define the relationship between beauty, art and morality. Expressed as a series of letters to a patron, it argues that only an aesthetic education - rather than government reform, religion or moral teachings - can achieve a truly free society, and must be placed at the heart of human experience. One of the most important works of German philosophy, its arguments remain as arresting and inspiring as when they were first written. Translated by Keith Tribe with an introduction and notes by Alexander Schmidt

Don Carlos and Mary Stuart, two of German literature's greatest dramas, deal with the timeless issues of power, freedom, and justice.Dating from 1787 and 1800 respectively, one play was written before the French Revolution, the other in its aftermath. Both dramatize periods of crisis in sixteenth-century Europe, and in doing so reflect Schiller's passionate engagement with the great themes of his own age - justice, power, freedom of conscience, legitimacy of government.A youthful work, Don Carlos shows the victory of the forces of reaction over the representatives of a new age. Mary Stuart shows the struggle of the Scottish queen in her last days of her life, not only for her freedom, but also for peace with her conscience, and that of her English rival, Elizabeth I, with the challenge of ruling justly. A vivid imaginative experience when read, these plays, with their starkly contrasting characters and thrilling confrontations, also demonstrate Schiller's brilliant stagecraft.These new translations into blank verse are accurate, elegant, and playable. The introduction, notes, and chronology set the plays in their cultural and intellectual background, while a family tree explains the historical relationship bewteen Don Carlos and Mary Stuart.

One of European theatre's major plays, Schiller's masterpiece hinges on a brilliantly imagined meeting between Mary, Queen of Scots - focus of simmering Catholic dissent and her cousin Elizabeth, Queen of England, who has imprisoned her. Isolated by their duplicitous male courtiers, the women collide headlong, each wrestling with the rank, ambition and destiny their births have bestowed, against a thrilling background of intrigue, plot and counter-plot.David Harrower's version of Mary Stuart premiered at the Citizen's Theatre, Glasgow, in October 2006.
