| | August Wilhelm von Schlegel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | August Wilhelm von Schlegel (September 8, 1767- May 12, 1845), German poet, translator and critic, was born at Hanover, where his father, Johann Adolf Schlegel (1721-1793), was a Lutheran pastor. | | | Schlegel was made a professor of literature at the university of Bonn in 1818, and during the remainder of his life occupied himself chiefly with oriental studies, although he continued to lecture on art and literature, and in 1828 he issued two volumes of critical writings (Kritische Schriften). | | | As an original poet Schlegel is unimportant, but as a poetical translator he has rarely been excelled, and in criticism he put into practice the Romantic principle that a critic's first duty is not to judge from the standpoint of superiority, but to understand and to characterize a work of art. |

| | Karl Wilhelm Friedrich von Schlegel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | A permanent place in the history of German literature belongs to Friedrich Schlegel and his brother August Wilhelm as the critical leaders of the Romantic school, which derived from them most of its governing ideas as to the characteristics of the middle ages, and as to the methods of literary expression. | | | Karl Wilhelm Friedrich von Schlegel (March 10, 1772- January 11, 1829), German poet, critic and scholar, was the younger brother of August Wilhelm von Schlegel. | | | Friedrich Schlegel's wife, Dorothea, was the author of an unfinished romance, Florentin (180,), a Sammlung romantischer Dichtungen des Mittelalters (2 vols., 1804), a version of Lother und Maller (1805), and a translation of Madame de Staël's Corinne (1807-1808)--all of which were issued under her husband's name. |

| | Hegel's Critique of Subjective Irony |
| | This criticism of Schlegel's radically formal subjectivity, while it might seem excessive today--especially since Schlegel is ascendant today in the American academy--was no doubt occasioned at least in part by the Jena romantics' almost-Californian style of life, especially of gender relationships. | | | Solger was at once a supporter of Hegel as well as a friend of the romantic Tieck, an ally of Schlegel (at least early on), and a supporter of the great maverick dramatist, writer and essayist Heinrich von Kleist--none of whom Hegel liked. | | | implying that Schlegel's point of view is doctrinaire, elitist (note the not so subtle use of ``von''), and that Schlegel's irony is merely an alleged irony, casting doubt on the legitimation of Schlegel's use of the term. |

| | With his elder brother, August Wilhelm von Schlegel, he founded the journal Athenaum, in which he published his philosophical and literary aphorisms and his Dialogue on Poetry (1800), a critical work stressing the subjective aspects of literature and developing in full his romantic thought. | | | In his later works, Schlegel stiffened his opposition to Enlightenment, natural law, democracy and liberalism, but, despite his turn to traditionalism, he preserved a revolutionary strain of which he was conscious. | | | Friedrich von Schlegel (picture) is one of the most characteristic representatives of German romanticism whose principal trait is the longing for a reality different from that which is determined by natural laws and historical circumstances. |
