Philosophical Letters of Friedrich Schiller
1786
The 'Philosophical Letters of Friedrich Schiller,' first published in 1786, is a collection of philosophical essays that features a dialogue between two characters, Julius and Raphael. Through their correspondence, they discuss themes of reason, morality, and the human spirit, exploring the tension between intellectual contemplation and emotional experience. The letters reflect Julius's struggle with skepticism and the questioning of previously held beliefs about existence and God, highlighting the interplay of joy and suffering in the pursuit of truth.

“Therefore, one will see in the so-called refined ages, softness degenerate not seldom into effeminacy, plainness into insipidity, correctness into emptiness, liberality into arbitrariness, lightness into frivolity, calm into apathy, and the most contemptible caricature border upon the most glorious humanity.””
— Friedrich Schiller
