German Classics V4

Friedrich Schiller's compilation features three significant works: "Historical Sketches," a series of essays on ancient history and the French Revolution; "The Life and Death of Egmont," a play about the execution of Count Lamoral of Egmont during the Spanish Inquisition; and "The Siege of Antwerp," a drama set in the Eighty Years' War. This edition, published in 1885, includes an introduction that contextualizes each work's importance in German literature. It serves as a valuable resource for enthusiasts of history, drama, and German literary heritage.
