The young man coloured a little. In his circle to be wrong was fatal. The Miss Schlegels did not mind being wrong. They were genuinely glad that they had been misinformed. To them nothing was fatal but evil. "Wrong, so to speak," he added. "How 'so to speak'?" "I mean I wouldn't say he's right altogether." But this was a blunder. "Then he is right partly," said the elder woman, quick as lightning.
We take in, not Germany alone, but France and Italy; not the Schlegels and Schellings, but the Manzonis and De Staels.
"But that would be pauperising them," said an earnest girl, who liked the Schlegels, but thought them a little unspiritual at times. "Not if you gave them so much. A big windfall would not pauperise a man. It is these little driblets, distributed among too many, that do the harm. Money's educational. It's far more educational than the things it buys." There was a protest.
London, 1835. Reprinted in America, 1841. "I would not have you pin your faith too closely to these SCHLEGELS," said FICHTE one day at Berlin to VARNHAGEN VON ENSE, or one of his friends, in his own peculiar, cutting, commanding style "I would not have you pin your faith to these Schlegels. I know them well. The elder brother wants depth, and the younger clearness.
Although, for the sake of convenience, it is customary to speak of Weber as the founder of the romantic school in music, it must not be imagined that the new school sprang into being at the production of 'Der Freischütz. For many years the subtle influence of the romantic school in literature the circle which gathered round Tieck, Fichte, and the Schlegels had been felt in music.
From 1797-1800 he was at Jena, where he succeeded in making himself hated by the Schlegels in spite of his defense of them in his satirical play, Gustav Wasa . This play, in the manner of Tieck's Puss in Boots, attempts to ridicule Kotzebue.
The whole adventure is into the realm of dreams and vague sensations. Tieck must have been liberally baptized with Spree-water, for the instantaneous, corrosive Berlin wit was a large part of his endowment. His cool irony associated him more closely to the Schlegels than to Novalis, with his life-and-death consecrations.
But the Schlegels had never played with life. They had attempted friendship, and they would take the consequences. Helen retorted, "I call that a very rude remark. What do you want to turn on me like that for?" and suddenly the drawing-room re-echoed to a vulgar row. "You ask me why I turn on you?" "Yes." "What do you want to have me here for?" "To help you, you silly boy!" cried Helen.
At Weimar she devoted herself to the pursuit of literature, and held twice a week a sort of salon, which was attended by Goethe, the two Schlegels, Wieland, Heinrich Meyer, Grimm, and other literary persons of note.
And her eyes began to shine. "Of course I regard you Schlegels as English," said Mrs. Munt hastily "English to the backbone." Margaret leaned forward and stroked her hand. "And that reminds me Helen's letter " "Oh, yes, Aunt Juley, I am thinking all right about Helen's letter. I know I must go down and see her. I am thinking about her all right. I am meaning to go down"
