He has en- joyed the advantage, however, of being able to subject the work to a revision during this time. The writer desires to express here his grateful acknowledg- ment of the inspiring influence of Prof. A. R. Hohlf eld's in- cisive character, sound scholarship and unremitting enthusiasm, not only upon the present study, but also during four years of graduate work and subsequent co-operation. To Prof. W. B. Cairns, who has published an' excellent study in the field of American magazine literature, I am indebted for many helpful suggestions and much good advice. Thanks are also due to Prof. W. G. Bleyer, chairman of the Bulletin committee, to the librarians of the University and State Historical libraries and to their efficient staff of assistants for uniform courtesy and patience. GERMAN LITERATURE IN AMERICAN MAGAZINES PRIOR TO 1846 INTEODUCTORT A higUy important factor in the cultural development of America, and one which is more and more attracting investigt^ tion, is the very significant influence of Germany during the nine- teenth century. The great proportions assnimed by this influence in recent years lend both interest and importance to a study of its growth. As yet, however, no attempt has been made to present a comprehensive history of the beginnings, development, and present results of our cultural contact with that civilization, to which, the mother country alone excepted, we doubtless owe more than to any other. Investigation thus far has been con- fined to studies upon single phases of the subject, such as the present paper. But these contributions are rapidly increasiag in number, and are preparatory to the more exhaustive treat- ment which will surely appear when the time is ripe. One phase of the introduction and spread of German litera^ ture in America has been chosen as the subject of this study. The field of the early periodical literature has been selected for this purpose in the belief that here, as nowhere else, this move- ment is reflected. The magazines present a reliable chronicle of the intellectual tendencies, the prevailing tastes, the current thought of the time which produced them. They are the un- officiali, but authentic archivesu to which the student may resort to gain light upon the trend and the progress of the public mind in bygone days. The growth of our American periodical literature during the last century is little short of phenomenal. Even in the last half of the eighteenth century a surprisingly large nmnbeir of mag- [7] 8 BULLETIN OF THE TJNIVEESITY OF WISCONSIN azines sprang up, led a precarious existence for a few months, or years, and then sank into oblivion. "With the rapid development of commercial, political and cultural interests during the first half of the new century, it was only natural that journalism should increase enormously in importance. True, a certain lack of stability seems to have characterized our magazine literature, even down to the present time, and the number of American journals that have attained the age of fifty years, is as yet com- paratively small; but the number of journals founded has in- creased astonishingly. We are said, indeed, to have led the world, even a third of a century ago, in the number of periodicals of aU kinds published.^ The collection of American magazines of the first half of the nineteenth century, in the library of the Wisconsin Historical Society, which has furnished the data for the present paper, is excellent, although, of course, not complete. It is undoubtedly the most extensive collection in the west and is rivalled only by the best of the .eastern libraries. But for the period from 1741, the date of the founding of the first magazine in America, to 1800, the collection includes less than half the entire number of periodicals known to have been issued, although only three or four of the more important journals are wanting.^ Conse- quently it has seemed expedient to exclude this early period from the lists of the present study, until opportunity shall have been presented of examining the remainder of the magazines. However, all the accessible data of importance prior to 1800 have been included in a separate chapter. It is the hope of the writer that not the least merit of the present work may attach to the appended lists of references to • Cf. Steiger, E. The Periodical Literature of the United States of America, New York, 1873. In the preface to this list, which was prepared for the Vienna Exposition, Mr. Steiger says : "This [collection] consisted of some 6,000 specimens out of a total estimated at 8,500. The above aggregate, then, took not only Europe, hut even America, by surprise, pointing as It did to the fact that, in numbers at least, the Periodical Press of this country stands at the head of the World, and suggesting the further Inferences usually considered deducible from such data."

EDUCATION Education in America prior to the Revolutionary War was distinctly English in its spirit and tradition.* Americans who could afford it, were trained in the institutions of the mother country. American colleges founded during the Colonial period, with perhaps the single exceptions of Dartmouth and the ' ' Public Academy of the City of Philadelphia, ' ' which afterward became the University of Pennsylvania, were modelled after the English schools. The basis of this English- American education was, of course, the study of the ancient languages and mathematics. Rhetoric, the elements of criticism, philosophy and perhaps oc- casional instruction in the known laws of physics, constituted the remainder of the curriculum. Neither French nor German was taught in the schools of England or America.^ Nevertheless it must be borne in mind that in England French was the best known foreign language, read and spoken by many, and doubtless familiar, too, to the colonials educated there. Hence it was more or less highly prized in America. Indeed Josiah Quiney, in his History of Harvard University,^ records that a Frenchman was engaged by that institution to ' As to the nature of these lists, and the principles underlying their compila- tion, see the Introductory remarks prefixed to each. * Cf. Hinsdale, B. A. Foreign Influence upon Education in the United States. Report of the Oommiaaloner of Education, for 1897-8, pp. 591-629. '"For nearly two hundred years no modern language was continuously and systematically taught here. In the latter half of the last century, a stray French teacher was caught now and then, and kept as long as he could endure the baiting of his pupils. After falling as a teacher of his mother tongue, he commonly turned dancing master, a calling which public opinion seems to have put on the same Intellectual level as the teacher." J.

From the Revolution on, more than ever before, a knowl- edge of French, both as the language of culture, and as the tongue of a nation united to us by fresh ties, seems to have been considered as essential to a "finished" education. Edi- tors seem to have assumed an understanding of French on the part of many, for the journals frequently contain both prose and verse in that language. So, while it is not at all likely that Colonial education had been greatly affected by French influences from the north and west, nor even that of the new republic by the national friendship for the country of Lafayette, it does not seem at all unreasonable to suppose that French was iatelligible to a fairly wide circle of readers. But beyond the confines of the numerous German element, especially in New York and Pennsylvania, German seems to have been almost entirely unknown. Germans were numerous enough, and their' political influence, particularly in the lat- ter state, must have been extraordinary,'' but their efforts at introducing and maintaining an interest in their language and literature in higher institutions of learning, proved wholly un- availing. L. Viereck, writing on German Instruction in Amer- ican Schools,^ chronicles in detail the first attempts to found ' "In New York, beeonders aber in Pennsylvanien, entwickelte sich eln reges deutsches Leben, und auszerte elch namentllch In letzterem Staate lu einem politiscben Einflusz, der spater nle wieder erreicht worden ist. . .

The first was the above men- tioned Public Academy of the City of Philadelphia, for which Benjamin Franklin outlined a curriculum including instruction ia both German and French, thus deviating from the English eoUege system then in vogue. "When the academy became a college ia 1753, Mr. "William Creamer was appointed professor of German, in which capacity he served until 1775, during which time, according to "Viereck's statement, he "never had cause to complain of the want of pupils. ' ' The second enterprise was a "German Seminary," a private school, organized by a German immigrant, Mr. Leps, with the assistance of Professor Kunze, at Philadelphia in 1773. Encour- aged by the success of this attempt. Professor Kunze soon afterward founded a "German Institute" in connection with the "University of Pennsylvania. These were the first attempts to found German institutions of academic grade on the new continent. But the initial interest in both undertakings soon fiagged, and by 1787 both were defunct, although a professor of German was retained by the University of Pennsylvania. Franklin College, founded in 1787, named in honor of Ben- jamin Franklin, who had contributed liberally to the enter- prise, and who laid the comer stone of the building, was the next of these early attempts, but it proved no more success- ful than its predecessors. It appears that the sphere of influence of these early efforts must have been very restricted indeed. Mr. Viereck records' as an example of the progressiveness of the Philadelphia "Insti- tute," that the students were acquainted as early as 1785 with Lessing's Nathan, which had appeared only six years pre- viously, but the writer has not found a single reference to Nathan in the American periodicals of the eighteenth century, ia fact only six to Lessing.^" An examiaation of the German " Report of the Commissioner of Education, for 1900-1901, p. 545.

[11] 12 BULLETIN OF THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN periodicals in Philadelphia of that time might show some re- flection of this early work, but it surely produced little effect outside its own immediate sphere. In New England, Germany seems to have been little more than a "geographical conception." Here the domination of English spirit was supreme, and England, aside from political and commercial relationships, had little to do 'with Germany. No better example can be cited of the total ignorance of the well-educated New-Englander with regard to everything Ger- man, and the difficulty of obtaining ajiy assistance whatever in the acquisition of the elements of the language there, than the oft quoted words of Ticknor,^^ who gained his first ideas of Ger- man education and literature from Mme. de Stael's De L'Alle- magne, not circulated until 1813, and who was scarcely able to find a German grammar and dictionary and a copy of Goethe's Werter in all New England. This' was in 1814. The evidence with regard to the state of affairs at Harvard, the seat of New England learning, is decidedly conflicting. In an address delivered in 1890, Mr. J. Russell Lowell says:^^ "By hook or crook some enthusiasts managed to learn German, but there was no official teacher before Dr. Pollen, about sixty years ago. Mr. George Bancroft told me that he learned Ger- man of Professor Sidney Willard, who, himself self-taught, had no notion of its pronunciation." Dr. A. P. Peabody, writing of the beginning of regular in- struction under Dr. FoUen, who was appointed in 1825, writes as follows:^" "German had never been taught in college be- fore, and it was with no little difficulty that a volunteer class of eight was found desirous, or at least willing, to avail them- selves of his [Dr. Pollen's] services. I was one of that class. We were looked upon with very much the amazement with which a class in some obscure tribal dialect of the remotest Orient would now be regarded. We knew of but two or three persons in New England who could read German, though there " Life, Letters cmd Journals of George Tioknor, Boston, 1877. Vol. I, p. 11.

There were no German books in the bookstores. A friend gave me a copy of Schiller's Wallenstein, which I read as soon as I was able to do so, and then passed it from hand to hand among those who could obtain nothing else to read. There was no attainable class book that could be used as a reader. A few copies of Noehden's Grammar were imported, and a few copies of I forget whose Pocket Dictionary, fortunately too copious for an Anglo-Saxon pocket, and suggesting the generous am- plitude of the Low Dutch costume, as described in Irving 's mythical History of New York. The German Reader for be- ginners, compiled by our teacher, was furnished to the class in single sheets, as it was needed, and was printed in Roman type, there being no German type within easy reach. ' '^* As Mr. Viereek points out, this statement concerning the lack of books is difficult to reconcile with the fact that Everett, who '"'^ returned in 1817, brought with him "a large number of Ger- man books from Gottingen, which formed the foundation of a German library for Harvard." This collection was very con- siderably augmented in 1818, by the purchase, by Mr. Thorn- dyke, of Boston, of the extensive library of Professor Ebeling, of Hamburg; and furthermore by the presentation to Harvard library in the same year of a set of Goethe's works in thirty volumes, by the author himself. Both these acquisitions are recorded in the magazines.^" Mr. Viereek concludes that at the time of Dr. Follen's appointment, in 1825, to teach Ger- man in Harvard, the library must have contained "thousands" of volumes of German works. It is also difficult to harmonize Dr. Peabody's statement con- cerning the number of people in New England who could read German, with a sentence from a letter of Joseph G. Cogs- well to Goethe, written at Paris, Septemebr 5th, 1818. Cogswell writes:^' "Vous faites mention de vos intentions tres flat- "This reader was published In complete form shortly after Its Introduction. Cf. No. 72a. Cf. also No. Amer. Rev.

' ' It is clear that we must draw our conclusions from very conflicting testimony. Perhaps all of it may be taken with a grain of allowance. Mr. Lowell is writing altogether from hearsay, and Mr. Cogswell under circumstances which, to say the least of it, would render a delicate flattery very natural and very excusable. Four years before Cogswell's letter, Tick- nor had not been able to find a German book, or a man to teach him German, in aU Boston. Prior to 1818, only two Harvard men, Everett and Ticknor, had returned from study in Ger- many. Dr. Peabody's picture is probably not greatly over- drawn. With regard to his ignorance of the books in the Harvard library it should be noted that the bulk of them, — the Ebeling library, — were doubtless almost entirely seientifle. Aside from Goethe's, there were probably few literary works. In general, the study and knowledge of German at Harvard undoubtedly began with the appointment of Dr. FoUen as in- structor in 1825. The evidence of the periodical literature points to this conclusion. Aside from the articles of the Got- tingen group, no contributions from Harvard men appear until about 1830, after which they become surprisingly numerous. Mr. Viereck also shares this view. In Dr. FoUen's inaugural address,^^ upon the occasion of his appointment to the chair of German language and literature in 1831, he notes the prog- ress made during the six years of his tutorship, e. g., an aver- age of fifty students in German each session, many fluent read- ers of German, German classics in many private libraries, and the like. Mr. Viereck adds :" ' ' This great progress occurred in the short space of time between 1825 and 1831, during which the influence of FoUen, and (after 1827) of Francis Lieber on the mind of the American Athens was felt." " Cf. Nos. 876, 882. " German Instruction in American Schools, in Report of the Comm,iasioner of BaueaUon, for 1900-1901, p. 554. [14] GOODNIGHT GEEMAN LITEEATUEE IN AMEEIOA 15 German being practically unknown at Harvard and in Bos- ton until 1825, the remainder of New England can scarcely come into consideration. Except in the few German settle- ments there was doubtless no knowledge whatever of either language or literature. lilTEBATUEB In the field of contemporaneous belles lettres the French lit- erature was the only rival of the English in the eighteenth century. The latter, of course, predominated; firstly, because of the coincidence of language, and secondly, because of the almost uninterrupted communication between England and America, both before and after the Revolution, affording abun- dant opportunity for the importation of books and periodicals, so eagerly sought for in the new country, particularly by the journalists. But French literature, too, was accessible through the same channels, and especially during the last quarter of the century, when the political friendship between France and America was felt to have been sealed by their union against Great Britain, the periodicals devoted much attention to the works of French genius. To be sure, it is not at all improbable that the major- ity of these critiques and translations were derived directly from English sources, but the tendency is none the less notice- able. German literature, on the other hand, notwithstanding the number of Germans who had sought homes here, seems to have been almost entirely unknown to Americans until the last dec- ade of the century. A magazine article of the year 1788, on the Literary Wit and Taste of the European Nations,^^ offers strong confirmation of this. The writer, evidently an Ameri- can, says; — "The French and English are at present the most literary nations of the globe. The other European nations do not pretend to enter into any competition with them. Germany claims the third place, Italy the fourth." "OolumMam Magazine, (Old), for 1788, Philadelphia, II: 384 and 423. (13 pp.) [15] 16 BULLETIN OF THE UNIVEESITY OF WISCONSIN The entire article deals with French and English literature, not a German work or author finding mention. However, the writer claims to have made the acquaintance of a Germa,n, whom he does not name, and who, he says, had impressed him deeply on account of the impartiality with which he judged various nations. "The Germans, he said, had plain, strong understandings, of a solid, capacious texture, able to bear the weight of much knowledge, and the fatigue of much study; in these qualities, he thought, they surpassed all Europeans. In several countries he had known men of universal learning, but in none had he met with individuals of that description so often as in Germany, where Ton trouve dans ehaque univer- site deux ou trois bibliotheques parlantes'." But it never occurs to the writer, notwithstanding the lati- tude allowed by the title he has chosen, to mention a single German writer or scholar. Indeed it is doubtful whether he would have been able to do so, without first having acquired the information from his German friend. The fact that his quotation from the latter is in French, undoubtedly means that the conversations were carried on in that tongue. That is, the American knew French, but no German. Toward the close of the century, a little favorable criticism of English origin appears,^" but it is clear that American critics are stiU total strangers to the subject. Half a century brought about a great change in these con- ditions. Interest in the literature of Germany, wholly imper- ceptible in the ante-revolutionary periodicals, evidenced only by weak beginnings in those of the last quarter of the eigh- teenth century, began to grow gradually during the first few years of the nineteenth, received fresh and lasting impulse from the pens of the first American German students, — Everett, Ticknor, Bancroft, and their successors, — ^then grew with aston- ishing rapidity, till, in the forties, there swept over the country what Mr. Theodore Parker, in his somewhat extravagant Dial article on German Literature,'^ facetiously calls a "German "Cf.

[16] GOODNIGHT GERMAN LITERATUEE IN AMEEICA IT craze." This movement is one whicli has not been equalled in extent in any previous or subsequent period in the United States. A larger proportion of the attention of literary people, and a larger proportional space in periodical literature was then devoted to German letters, than at any time since. The rapidity of this change is startling. In the magazines prior to 1795, which have been examined,^^ there occur, aside from the references to Frederick the Great, eleven to Lavater, eight to Luther, seven to Goethe's Werter, six to Gessner, two to Lessing and one each to Haller, Wieland, Klopstock, and Gellert. Not a single reference was found to Gottsched, Her- der, Biirger, SehiUer, — although The Roliers had been re- printed in 1793, — ^nor to any other work of Goethe except Werter.^^ The next five years, however, bring the names of Burger, Goethe, Herder, Jaeobi, Kant, Kotzebue, Niebuhr, Schiller, Stolberg and Zimmermann. From a complete list of referen- ces from 1800 to 1845, scarcely a name found in the index of a modem history of German literature for that period, would be missing, and a large number of writers, wholly forgotten to- day, axe represented by translations, biographical notices and criticisms. French literature, to be sure, was by no means lost sight of during this time. But it had apparently lost some of its pres- tige with the American literary public, while the interest in German letters had increased, within the half century from 1795 to 1845, from almost nothing to an all-absorbing theme, busying the tongues and pens of the foremost men and women of culture of the day. " Cf. the remarks prefixed to lists A and C. =* However, some of these writers appear to have had little recognition In some quarters at home at that time. Rich. M. Meyer, in his Grundriss! der nfu. d. LiteratnrgescMcMe, (Berlin, 1902), cites (p. 44, No. 598) an enumera- tion of "our first authors" of January, 1792, which fails to mention Klopstock, Herder, Goethe and Schiller, and names Wolff, Moshelm, Mascov, Gellert, Hal- ler, Wieland, Lessing, MBser, Gessner, Ramler, Adelung, Bngel and Andrg. [17] 18 BULLETIN OF THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN THE PERIOD PEIOR TO 1800 FEEDEEICK THE GREAT Prior to the Revolutionary War the American periodicals which have been accessible, show not a single reference to any- literary man of Germany, save Frederick the Great. Thus he beeomeai, in, a sense, the first German man of letters tO' gain recognition in America, but it could scarcely be affirmed that it was as a representative of German literature that he was known and esteemed here. On the contrary his admiration for Voltaire and French literature was well known, and we en- counter several of his French poems in translation. But neither was it his patronage of French culture that ren- dered him popular here, for in 1758 Americans looked at France through English eyes. It was rather as the victorious opponent of France on the field of battle, as the ally of the mother country, as the great military genius, that the old monarch had endeared himself to American hearts. This is evidenced by the character of the references to him in the magazines. Aside from war news, political chronicles and the like, which, of course, occupy much space, there are twelve references that may fairly be called literary in character." ^ 1758. Amer. Mag. and Mo.

There is no adverse criticism. These all appeared in the years 1758 and 1759, that is, while England, in accordance with the policy of Pitt, ■vfas yet subsidizing Frederick in his struggle against the coal- ition. But after the withdrawal of England's aid by Bute, Pitt's successor, in 1762, and the consequent resentment of this action on Frederick's part,^" this chorus of praise suddenly ceases. True, the two magazines in which the above references appeared had been suspended in 1758 and 1760, respectively, and during the enduing fifteen years before the Revolution only six short-lived journals were founded, but they are all silent concerning Frederick.'"' There seems to be little doubt that the reason is to be sought in the change of sentiment to- ward Frederick in England. Reference to several of the lead- ing British journals of that time confirms this view. The Revolution, however, brought still another change. America had now sundered herself from England, and there was no longer any reason why England's prejudices should in- fluence the likes and dislikes of the new nation. But more im- portant still than this, Frederick had been the first of for- eign powers to acknowledge the political independence of the United States, and to sign with them a commercial treaty de- claring that "There shall be a firm, inviolable and universal peace and sincere friendship between the King of Prussia, his heirs, successors and subjects and the United States of Amer- ica, without exception of person or places. ' '^^ Two rather pungent satires appearing in the journals after this time, one of them certainly, and possibly both, from the " "But he [Frederics] never forgave this desertloii ; one of his favorite horses, which he had named after Bute, was condemned to haul wood with base mules." — Henderson.

The first of these satires, which seems to be aimed at England as much as at Frederick, is in the form of an edict, purporting to be from the latter, to his "subjects, the English people," basing his claim to sovereignty over them upon the early invasion of England by the Saxons.^" The sec- ond is entitled Character of the King of Prussia/"' and pur- ports to be extracted from The Secret History of the Court of Berlin. With these two exceptions, however, the attitude of the journals after the Revolution is entirely that of respect and admiration. The old monarch's rugged character, idiosyncra- cies and military achievements combined to make him a very popular subject for sketch^^ and anecdote for nearly a half century after his death. GESSNER Of German authors in the stricter sense of the term, Gessner was beyond doubt the pioneer in America, as in England. The biographer of Coleridge, Professor Alois Brandl, speaks of the introduction of German letters in England in the following 2» Ct. Trietscbke, H. von., D. Oesch. i. neunz.

References to Louis XV and the battles of Molwitz and Friedberg prove that "Frederick III" is a misprint for "Frederick II." The writer has found no further trace of the American edition. [20] GOODNIGHT GEKMAN LITERATUBB IN AMEEIOA 21 terms,^^ "Up to the appearance of the Sorrows of Werter, German had only been learned for commercial purposes, — as some people leam Russian nowadays. The respect for nation- ality and the Middle Ages, the sense of an affinity with other countries, the feeling for German ideas, came first with the Romantic School. Gessner's IdAjls, though stiU partaking strongly of the pseudo-classic, were the first offspring of the German Muse, which, under the Royal House of Hanover, found a welcome in England. That was from 1760 to 1769. Be- tween 1770 and 1779, Werter made its appearance, when the passionate yearning for the larger school of Nature took the place of the pious landscape idyl. The third step was taken by SchiUer in his dramas, which, after the outbreak of the Revolution, were called for and translated." The magazine references give evidence that these works made their way to America in about the same order, but sev- eral years later. Aside from the translations of poems from Frederick the Great, just discussed, the first magazine contribu- tions attributed to a German author are three idyls from Gess- ner, appearing in the years 1774, 1775 and 1785 respectively." Two years after the last of these, we find four poems on Wer- ter,^* forming the second distinct reference to German litera- ture. And a notice of the presentation of The Bobbers in New York, in 1795, although not in reality the third reference, ap- pears as the first reference to SchiUer.'" Mr. F. H. Wilkens' list'" of American reprints and editions of translations of German works shows that the above dates correspond quite closely, with one exception, to the appear- ance of the respective works here. A reprint of an English Werter translation was made in Philadelphia in the year " Samuel Taylor Coleridge and the EngUah Romantic School; English edition, London, 1887, pp. 122-3. 23 The Old Man [Palemon}, Prom Ges'sner.

The exception is Gessner, since the first recorded edition of the Idyls was not issued until 1802. But the Death of Abel had passed through six editions here from 1762 to 1770, and Gessner 's great pop- ularity in England," and the frequency with which transla- tions from him appeared in the English journals, offer a ready explanation of the source of these early references. Numer- ous idyls, in fact, appear prior to 1802. William Dunlap, the early translator of Kotzebue for the American stage, published The Zephyrs {Die Zephyre) in 1795,'* and Daphne amd Chloe (Daphne und CMoe) the following year." In 1799 appeared Amiyntas, a pastoral Tale (Amyntas),*" and the Philadelphia Portfolio for 1801 brings a biographical sketch of Gessner,*^ a translation of six idyls and fables,*^ and favorable mention of the poet in two other contributions. In fact, if the magazines of the day may be regarded as an index of literary taste, the year 1801 seems to represent the zenith of Gessner 's popularity in America, for in no other year do we find such a number of translations and sketches. But it is certain that he was not soon forgotten. This is evidenced by the appearance, in the following year, of the Idyls in book form, and by the references, more or less sporadic, to be sure, but none the less significant, throughout the first three decades of the new century.*' And the strong- est evidence we find in a critical article on The State of Polite Learning in Gernumy, appearing in a Journal of 1816.** It is a typical instance of the criticism of that day. The writer of this article unhesitatingly gives Gessner the highest rank among all German literary men, declaring him far superior to Goethe, Schiller, Lessing, Kotzebue and Biirger, and, after =' Cf.

[22] GOODNIGHT GERMAN LITEUATUEE IN AMEEICA 23 an examination of the character of the works of each of these, arrives at the unalterable conclusion that, with the notable ex- ception of Gessner, all Germans are "hopelessly deficient in the matter of taste." An element of Puritanic severity which sought a moral in everything and had little sympathy for aught but the religioua, the lachrymose and the bucolic, seems to have predominated in our early critical literature,*^ and the majority of German writers fell beneath the ban of its displeasure. Among the chief exceptions were the Swiss gentlefolk, Gessner and Lav- ater, whose idyllic pastorals and edifying moral reflections met with unqualified approval, while Goethe's Werter and Schiller's Bobbers evoked continual hostility, as well as sym- pathy. WERTEE *' The American magazines likewise have their contribution to make to the Werter literature. In his work on Werther und seine Zeit^'' J. W. Appell, writing of the period of its intro- duction, says: "In England batten von anderen deutschen Dichterwerken [aside from Werter] nur die Klopstocksche Messiade und der Gessnersche Tod Abels, diese sogenannten heiligen Gedichte, Eingang gefunden." As we have seen, it was Gessner and Lavater, rather than Klopstock, whose popu- larity in America is attested by the periodical literature. Klopstock 's Messiah, although reprinted in Joseph GoUyer's English translation in both 1788 and 1795,*' is not referred to in the magazines till 1803.*° The "Werter fever" epidemic in America seems to have been nearly as violent as elsewhere, but not of long duration.

But the period of the introduction and general popularity of the work as attested by the magazine contribu- tions, is much shorter, covering just four years, 1787 to 1791. Within this brief space of time appear seven poems,^^ (and one is repeated), of the most highly sympathetic character, most of them breathing that hyper-emotional sentimentalism so gen- erally called forth by Werter among literary dilettantes, wher- ever it made its appearance. Three are by Dr. Joseph B. Ladd,"^ an early American poet of some reputation, and two others are also of American origin.** Two of the seven are versifications of letters from the work. " Appell, J.

[241 GOODNIGHT GEKMAN LITEBATUKE IN AMEBIOA 535 In 1795 an English criticism reprinted here,"" adverts to "the fiery spirit of enthusiasm and overflowing sensibility, which pervades the Sorrows of Werter," and from that time on the writer finds no further reference to the work until 1806,°* when there appears a warning against it, as dangerous to the young. "There are some books which no parent should put into the hands of her child; which no bookseller should sell. Among these I shall mention the Sorrows of Werter, a book more read than any of its kind by the yo'ung, and which has proved the bane of more than one family." .... "Werter, how- ever, is drawn with a richness, that, however pitiable the real character might be, the danger of a mistaken passion, or an immoral indulgence of affection is too great for a picture like this to be safely or prudently entrusted to the consideration of a mind not strongly formed." The phrase, "a book more read than any of its kind by the yoimg", bears witness that the book was still popular with cer- tain classes, and the fact that another edition followed in 1807 strengthens the evidence; but this was the last reprint, prior to 1825. at least, and the total absence of favorable criticism, even of "Werter poetry," from 1809 on, may serve as very conclusive evidence that its reign as the favorite of all senti- mental works was at a close. In this last mentioned year the Boston Anthology brings one more poem'^''' inspired by its perusal. This writer seems to have had his sensibilities shocked beyond measure by the suicide, a shock which puts to rout his sympathies and outrages his moral feeling. He closes with : — "Prom the black deed, affrighted, pity drew, And horror froze the tear compassion drew, "While from thy gloomy page, I learn to know, That virtue's tears alone for virtuous sorrows flow." =5 Mass.

Mr. Davis' worls on the poems is fairly accurate, but his lists of prose articles are unreliable, containing much extraneous material and omitting much of importance. [25] 26 BULLETIlir OF THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN In 1826 a burlesque,'^ much on the order of Thackeray's well known "bread and butter" doggerel, is reprinted from an English periodical, and twelve years later, when the conten- tion concerning German literature is at its highest, a coarse satire in story form, The Sorrows of Skwerter,^" concludes the list of Werter references. To be sure the book is frequently referred to in the latter part of our period, in reviews of Goethe's life and works, sometimes praised and sometimes con- demned, but it is apparent that it has never enjoyed any wide- spread popularity in America since the first decade of the nine- teenth century. It must have appealed very strongly however, to the fin de siecle literary taste, with its fondness for the hyper-emotional, and it seems strange that such a work did not gain even a firmer and more enduring hold upon popu- lar favor. The reason is doubtless to be sought in the criticism quoted above. In the conventional lachrymose productions of the day, the picture of misery was invariably used to point a moral, as well as to adorn a tale, while in Goethe's novel the didactic purpose did not lie uppermost. The critic sought in vain for a moral, and could find only a doctrine of weakly in- dulgence in a forbidden passion, ending in suicide, and perhaps, like later critics,*" he saw in the author only an advocate of this doctrine. This being true, the attractiveness of the work ren- dered it only the more baneful. LAVATER Another of the German writers whose fame early found its way across the Atlantic, was Lavater. His Maxims, Aphorisms on Man and works on Physiognomy are favorite sources for ex- tract from 1788, when the first ones appear, till the end of the first quarter of the nineteenth century. He evidently enjoyed among Americans the reputation of a many-sided genius, for he appears in the maga^iines as theologian, philosopher, physiogno- "Cf. No. 675. '• Cf. No. 1144. " Cf. the chapter on Goethe, p. 64 seg. [26] GOODNIGHT GEEMAN LITBRATUEE IN AMBEICA 27 mist and poet,"^ an in a foot-note to an article on Humor, translated from the Germxm,"^ lie is even mentioned as "one ol the principal humorous writers among the Germans." Judging from the amount of quotation from the Maxima, the Aphorisms and especially, the Sect*et Journal of a Self-Ob- server,"^ it must have been the introspective piety of these works, rather than the originality of the works on physiognomy, which obtained for Lavater a hearing in America. However, the first reference of importance, oecuring in 1788,"* consists of two profiles, with a translation of the accompanying comments, reproduced from the latter. The following extract is from the introductory paragraph. "The annexed profiles and their respective characteristics are copied from the second volume of Lavater 's essay on Physiog- nomy. The work, which has not yet been translated from the French, has occasioned considerable speculation among the learned and ingenious men of Europe." It is very clear that in this instance, "Monsieur Lavater," as he is called in the same paragraph, is considered a Frenchman, and that his works are credited to French, rather than to German literature. But this error, whether general or not, was soon cleared up by ac- counts of visits paid to Lavater by various travellers. The next year, 1789, brings a good two and one-half page bio- graphical sketch,"'' containing letters of Lavater in translation. Like Frederick the Great, he too, soon becomes the subject of numerous anecdotes and paragraphs in sketches of travel. In all there are fifteen references to Lavater prior to 1800, in which regard he leads all others.

However, Mr. Davis"* lists two more, of the year 1796, from magaziaes not accessible in this study. In the nineteenth cen- tury there are occasional references to GeUert throughout our entire period,"" but after the year 1801, when the Philadelphia Portfolio contains five,^" they are too sporadic to be indicative of general popularity. Prof. Koch's statement'^ that Gellert'a Faheln und Erzahlungen was the best known work, both in Germany and abroad, of all German literature, certainly does not hold true for America, in so far as the early periodical literature may be taken as evidence. THE LAST DECADE Aside from those cited in the foregoing, there are few refer- ences of purely literary character before the year 1790. Prior to that time extracts from works of travel and biography'" and sketches of the character, manners and social customs of the Germans are frequent, which are indicative of an awakening material interest of the two coixntries in each other, an inter- est which naturally precedes, and accompanies, cultural inter- course.

The effect of this, however, was to arouse imitation in America, and ahout 1800 there begins a period of genuine activity here, finding its first expression in the translations by the New Yorkers, Dunlap and Smith, of stage pieces from Kotzebue, Schiller and Zschokke, and in the theat- rical criticisms elicited thereby. [32] GOODNIGHT GEBMAN LITEEATUEE IN AMERICA 3C THE NINETEENTH CENTURY The interest in German literature, noted in the preceding chapter, which began about 1795, suffered a period of serious depression before and during the second war with England, but continued until about 1817 with no very marked change in character. The magazines show it to have been largely a period of second-hand knowledge of the subject. Prac- tically the only works accessible, aside from the dramas and theatrical notes just mentioned, were translations made in England, which were frequently reprinted here,^ and criti- cism 'was, for the most part, reproduced directly from English periodicals, or, at best, moulded entirely by English opinion. With 1817 a change is noticeable. Lengthy reviews of Ger- man works in the original, by scholarly Americans, begin to appear. The first of these were brought by the North Ameri- can Review,^ and were from the pens of Edward Everett and George Ticknor. These two were the pioneers of that group of young men of whom Thomas Wentworth Higginson affirmed some years since, that they had "taken our whole American educational system away from English tradition, and substituted German methods.'" Everett and Ticknor went to Gottingen in 1815, returning in 1817, when their infltience be- gins to make itself apparent. Thus this date assumes great im- portance in the present study. Cogswell, Bancroft, Hedge, Calvert and others less famous, soon succeeded Everett and Ticknor at Gottingen, and upon their return to America, ably seconded their efforts to disseminate a knowledge of the litera- ture and scholarship of Germany. The impulse they communi- cated to this movement resulted in the establishment of chairs ' Cf. Wllkens, Early Influence of German lAteratm'e in AmeHaa.

In the early thirties, this good seed bears abundant fruit. A very lively public interest begins to be manifest. Not merely those who had studied abroad, but those who had stud- ied at home, as well, read German and discuss German litera- ture in the magazines. English opinion is more and more dis- regarded, and an ever increasing share of attention is devoted to the new interest, apparently culminating in the Boston Dial, which was discontinued in 1845. Thus the subject offers a very natural and convenient di- vision into three periods of nearly equal length, but quite different in character. 1. The period from 1800 to 1816, marked by comparatively little first-hand knowledge, and dominated by English opinion. 2. The period from 1817 to 1832, the return of the first American German students, and the inauguration by them of a movement for the introduction of German culture. 3. The period from 1833 to 1845, a time of active public interest in this culture. THE PERIOD FROM 1800 TO 1816 The young nation passed through no more stirring epoch and no graver crisis from the Revolution to the Civil "War than during these years. Not only did the second war with Eng- land menace its very existence, but factional feeling within •The Introduction of InstnicHon in German In Harvard and the TJnlTereity of Virginia was largely due to these men. Everett and Thorndyke equipped Harvard with its first German library, and the Round Hill School, founded hr Bancroft and Cogswell, was of great influence, notwithstanding the brevity of ita existence.

[34] GOODNIGHT GERMAN LITERATUEE IN AMEBIOA 35 the commonwealth had never been so bitter, the political strug- gles had never assumed such magnitude. That no great ad- vance along literary Hues was probable under such conditions, is clear. But it was a time not altogether unfavorable to jour- nalistic activity, and magazines were founded in great numbers, although the majority of them were shortlived. Mr. B. Z. Davis, who has searched aU the libraries of the east and the British museum for traces of early American periodicals, and who has probably the most complete list of them up to 1810 extant, records sixty magazines founded in the years 1800 to 1810 inclusive, but not more than a third of this number were ever issuing contemporaneously." It is not surprising then, that the interest in things German, which had begun to manifest itself in the last years of the pre- ceding century, should not keep pace with the growth of the periodical literature in general during this period. The heat of political controversy, and the colossal interests of the war, which were not unpropitious to periodical literature, had a tendency to crowd into the background less momentous topics, even in magazines of avowed literary character. Furthermore, the English periodicals, the chief sources of information on German literature at that time, were also taken up with other matters during the Napoleonic campaigns, and material was doubtless scarce. Thus it happens that, notwithstanding a comparatively regu- lar increase in the number of magazines, the references to Ger- man works and writers are less numerous during the second half of this period than during the first. The initial impulse was checked, and from about 1807 on, no growth of interest is per- ceptible. Let us examine for a moment, — in a very mechanical way, to be sure, i. e., regarding all references as of equal signifi- cance, — ^the number apearing each year. The year 1800 had brought fifteen, and the average for the first five years of the new century remained practically the same. The year 1801 had brought twenty-three, a difference due wholly to one journal, — the Portfolio, founded that year " Cf. Translationa of German Poetry in American Magazines, Itil-lSlO. Amer- icana GermaMca Serlea, Phila. 1905. [35] 36 BULLBTIir OF THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN in Philadelphia, — and perhaps to not more than two corres- pondents,' who wrote at least seven translations and sketches of Gessner, and possibly other contributions bearing on Ger- man literature. This discrepancy, however, is counterbalanced by the year 1803, which brought only six references, the Port- folio containing but three. But in 1806 a genuine growth is manifest. This seems to have been a time of considerable intellectual activity along all lines, and particularly literary journalism gave promise of a rapid development. In this year was founded the Polyanthos, Boston, a journal of no small literary merit for that day, and which devoted particular attention to the New England stage. Two other important literary magazines which were issued for the first time in this year, are the Emerald, Boston, and the Monthly Register and History of the Ameri- can Revolution, Charleston, S. G. In this year appear forty-one references to German literature, and of such a varied nature, and in such a number of magazines, as to leave no doubt that We are not dealing here with an isolated phenomenon, as in the case of the Portfolio for 1801, but that a genuine interest in German letters was beginning to make itself distinctly felt To be sure, this was manifest mainly in reprints from English journals, but it must soon have led to independent investi- gation, had it been allowed to take its natural development. But such was not to be the case. And it may have been as well in the end. For perhaps nothing else would have brought so keen a sense of the abjectness of our dependence upon Eng- lish literary opinion, and so strong a desire to free ourselves, as the bitterness of feeling engendered by another war with the mother country. The year 1807 begins to show the shadows which the com- ing events cast before. The references decrease from forty- • Their signatures were "P. D." and "Q. V.," cf.

Charles Brockden Brown and John Qulncy Adams were num- bered among Its contributors.

In the eight years from 1800 to 1807 inclusive, there appeared 156 references; in the nine years from 1808 to 1816 inclusive, only 129. Thus it is clear that not only no iacrease, but even a slight decrease of interest characterizes the period embracing the second English war, whereas the magazines show a comparatively regular growth.

Then, too, literary intercourse between England and America, was probably less active during the war period.

Herder's Scattered Leaves and Komer's poems, seem to have been the best known works. Biirger is represented by a biographical sketch and three poems in translation, Goethe by scattered references to various works, several poems in translation and reviews of Elec- tive Ajjmities and Theory of Colors. Nearly all of the above writers are the subjects of biographical notices. Save two brief stanzas, Lessing is scarcely mentioned till 1816.° On the whole, the material bears the unmistakable stamp of English origin', or English influence.

As characteristic of the spirit of the period under discussion, we may regard an article of 1816 on The State of PoUte Literature in Germany.^* This writer discusses the genius of the Germans in general, their patience in study, their imaginative qualities and their poor taste. He takes up each writer of note in turn, classing Gessner far above aJl the others. Biirger's Leonora, Voss' Louise and Goethe's Hermann and Dorothea he discusses and condenms. The first is ' ' replete with absurdities and blemishes. ' ' The last has coloring and some poetical qualities, but "the subject is ill-chosen, defy- ing the richest genius to make it palatable. " " Oberon is not less objectionable." He condenms Schiller utterly, on the score of "rant, puerility, frenzy, poverty of genius and perversion of taste." He declares Kotzebue to be Schiller's superior, but even he "is not free from the blemishes of his age and nation. ' ' Lessing is accorded considerable praise. In Emilia Galotti the critic finds "knowledge of the human heart, beauties of chaste imagination and many striking illusions and happy figures, but these are all disgraced by a forced, unnatural and disgusting catastrophe." He sees, further, a lack of poetic justice and in- sufficient motivation. The conclusion of the whole matter is that "the taste of all Germans is hopelessly deficient." As further evidence of this, he points to the defalcation of learn- ing, to an alleged decrease in attendance at the German univer- sities. ' ' They no more lure the youth of the world.

[39] 40 BULLETIN OF THE UNIVEESITY OF WISCONSIN THE PERIOD FROM 1817 TO 1832 The most striking and important difference in temper be- tween this period and the preceding one is apparent in the zest with which new enterprises of every kind were taken up and pur- sued by the young nation. The "era of good feeling," following the political bitterness and the War of the first decade and a half, gave men opportunity to turn their attention to the gigantic tasks awaiting them at home. The Florida and Louis- iana purchases had added extensive domains, and the admis- sion of new states was rapidly increasing the strength of the Union, as well as developing the national consciousness. The advancement of the boundaries of civilization and the develop- ment of commerce and industry were pursued more energetic- ally than ever before. To these ends improved facilities for travel and transportation were necessary. In 1819 the "Savan- nah, ' ' built in New York, made the first trip across the Atlan- tic by steam. In 1828 the first locomotive was imported. Highways were continually being pushed farther into the great "West. Thus the country was rapidly broadening, developing, and, at the same time, being linked more closely with the civili- zation of the old world. The energy so manifest in material things was also displayed in intellectual, particularly educational, pursuits. The history of popular education in America practically dates from the close of this period. In the investigations and reforms in our public school system, instituted during, and shortly after this time, we see the results of this activity.^"* Ambitious young men, after completing the courses offered at home, sought new inspiration in the hitherto unknown German uni- versities.^* Many of them were instrumental, upon their re- turn, in introducing into our own educational system new forms and ideals acquired abroad. As a direct result of their influence Dr. Charles FoUen was appointed to teach Ger- « Cf. Hinsdale, B.

In the same year that Dr. Follen was appointed, Prof. Blattermann was called to the professorship of German in the University of Virginia, an institution then but recently established on lines modelled after the German system. The Round Hill School, founded by Dr. Cogswell and Mr. Bancroft near Boston in 1823, was an avowed attempt to adapt Pestaloz- zian and German pedagogical ideals and methods to American environment. But the Gottingen men, and those whom they soon enlisted in this work, did not confine their efforts to the schools. From the very beginning they sought to influence popular, as well as scholastic opinion. The medium was the magazine. Half a dozen stirring articles in the most influential New England \/^ journals, T/^e North American Review and The Christian Ex- aminer, lent an entirely new significance to the words "Goethe" and "Schiller," For the first time the public learned that Kotzebue and Gessner were not the unrivalled geniuses of Ger- man literature. It is characteristic of this period that the really great names are brought into prominence. Kotzebue, Gessner, Gellert, Lavater and Zimmermann recede, while Goethe, Schiller, Herder, Klopstock, Wieland, the Schlegels, Humboldt, Korner, even GriUparzer,^'' become familiar to read- ers of the best magazines. The example of influential journals in this regard could not fail to affect the minor periodicals, and toward the end of the period under consideration, criti- cism, translated extracts and biographical notices of German writers are becoming quite the vogue in the south^^ as well as ^'' in the east, although the west had hardly fallen into line as yet. Translation and criticism of English origin is more in evi- dence than during the previous period. Several English jour- nals reprinted in the United States^' of course contribute many "Cf. Nob.

The study of German was much farther advanced in England than here, and it is not surprising that an American editor should prefer to acknowl- edge an article to an English journal, rather than to do with- out. Poems and brief prose extracts in translation seem to have been considered legitimate game, and were by no means always accredited to the journal from which they were taken. It was customary to preface them by the phrase, "From the German of Schiller," or, "Translated from the German," but even this practice was not always adhered to. With regard to criticism, acknowledgement seems nearly always to have been made. Only one serious plagiarism has been discovered during the present investigation,^" although no special search has been made. On the other hand, editors were doubtless imposed upon at times. Thus a southern editor appends an extra leaf to one of his volumes^^ to lodge complaint against ' ' a German who had resided in South Carolina for three years, had, during that time, maintained a respectable reputation, and was undoubtedly a man of some learning." This individual, "whose name shotdd be published, had he not sailed for Eu- rope, thus ridding the country of any chance for further de- ception," had foisted upon the editor, "two excellent and learned compilations upon subjects not much inquired into in this country," which were later discovered to be bald plagiar- isms from "Wachler's Handbuck der GescMcMe der Litteratv/r and Fiorello's Geschichte der Mahlerei. But notwithstanding the increased amount of material in the magazines during this period, and notwithstanding the new tone of originality and enthusiasm, which had begun to ring through the indigenous product, there was yet much to be ac- complished before German and German literature could gain recognition as legitimate branches of study. Indeed this was only the preliminary skirmishing of the great conflict which followed. Conservatism had long since condemned German literature as unclean, and was not to be driven from its posi- tion in a twelvemonth. Prejudice deep and strong stood ar- »Cf. No. 1480.

[42] GOODNIGHT GEEMAN LITERATUBE IN AMEEICA 43 rayed against the aggressor and not even the efforts of Har- vard professors could prevail against it at once. But some- thing was accomplished. Information was disseminated. The work begun by Mme. de Stael's little book was again taken up and pushed with vigor. Many were even induced to take up the study of German in the origiual. Dr. FoUen boasts in 1831 of an average of fifty students per session, of many resi- dents of Boston who could read German intelligently and of many German classics in private libraries."* With the representative articles of 1788*' and 1816,** we may contrast one appearing toward the close of the present period, 1828.*° This is a general outline of the history of German lit- ^ erature from its beginnings down to contemporaneous writers, covering fully seventy pages, perhaps the most exhaustive treat- ise of this kind to be found in the magazines. It is based on originals, such as Franz Horn's Poesie und Beredsamkeit der Deutschen and Umrisse, Bouterwek's Geschichte der Poesie und Beredsamkeit, the collected works of Lessing and Wieland, and Heeren's Andenken an deutsche Historiker. In depth and breadth, in actual grasp of the subject in hand, it as far sur- passes the thoroughly biased sketch of 1816, as the latter didy that of 1788. The eighteenth century writer had not con- sidered the German literature worthy of mention. The re- viewer of 1816 grants it little poetic quality, and sees its doom in a total lack of taste. He of 1828 recognizes a great national literature, with its excellencies and defects, a people justly celebrated for the extent of their learning and their perseverance in its pursuit and works which assume an indis- putable place among the best that the world has produced.

GOETHE Goethe is naturally the chief figure in the period which we are considering. Much has been said and written of his in- fluence here. Particularly the relationships sustained to him by the various young men who studied in Germany during his life-time, have been favorite themes for investigation.^^ No other German writer has been so weU known and so misunder- stood, so highly praised and so harshly criticized, so influential and so carped at and cavilled over.

Carlyle's friendship and admiration for Goethe was a thing his American friend, Emerson, could not understand. The latter 's was ever "a quaUfled admiration." The justice, or injustice, of Mendel's'" depiction of the great Olympian is the subject of the warmest contentions dui'ing the Dial period, contentions which doubtless gained Goethe many friends in the end. It cannot be the attempt here to cope with the broad problem of Goethe's influence in America, but only to present the chief facts of interest observed in a study of the early magazine literature. This material is so voluminous, however, that de- tailed discussion of it would be impracticable. Only the more striking phenomena, and especially such as have not, to the writer's knowledge, been pointed out elsewhere, wiU be con- sidered, in the hope that the appended lists may serve the pur- pose of those who care to investigate further. Aside from the Werter poems and criticisms, previously treated,^^ there is little Goethe material of note prior to 1812. In 1804 there appeared a poem, Agmtist Faustus,^'^ but since Wilkens^^ has found no trace of a reprint of the Fragment in America prior to that time, and since he records two transla- tions of the Historia von Dr. Johann Fausten.

It is a review of Die Wahlverwandtschaf- ten,^^ and is based upon the original Grerman edition.^* On the whole it is a very creditable piece of work. It begins with an apostrophe to German literature in general, so little known in America, and in addition to Goethe mentions Schiller, Gess- ner, Wieland and Klopstock. Goethe is introduced as "the weU known author of Werter and Charlotte." The criti- cism is accompanied by a ten-page epitome of the Elective Affinities, one passage of which, about a page in length, is re- printed in the original German, but it contains so many typo- graphical errors, so many nouns that begin with small letters and verbs that begin with capitals, that we perceive at once that the reviewer was not a German, or a German- American, even if he did not complain of a certain "tone which is more or less disagreeable to a foreigner," like "a very fine aqua-tinta drawing, of which the general tint happens to be displeasing to the eye." The criticism has the ring characteristic of all American criticism of Goethe. Scarcely any American has written on him, — not even Tieknor, Everett, Bancroft, Motley, Margaret Fuller or Bayard Taylor, — Avho has not protested against a cer- tain laxity in regard to morals in many of his works. But, like his successors, this critic also finds much that is admir- able in the art of the master. The significance of such an article at this early date seems sufficient to warrant reprinting one of two extracts which would otherwise be excluded as too long. "From the outline which we have already given of the Elective Affinities, our readers wiU perceive that it is replete with in- congruities, with extravagant conceptions, and the most im- probable incidents. The episodes, digressions and disserta- tions form the most considerable part of the volumes, and have no immediate connection with the principal story. It is said to be the secret of German compositions of this kind, that they should be in every sense poetical ; that the author should gratify 'Cf. No. 205. 'Cotto. 1809. [66] GOODNIGHT GEEMAN LITERATUEE IN AMERICA 67 you 'with an epopee full of episodes and rich in the marvellous, under the modest title of a novel. They are, at the same time, made a vehicle to exhibit his learning on all topics of contem- porary science. Such seems to have been the plan of Goethe in this instance. Some of his superstitions are even more gross than those we have mentioned; — such, for example, as the restoration to life of Ottilia's maid. The author is so desirous of displaying his scientific acquirements, that he makes his heroine repeat, (with the most perfect success) the experiments of Eitter on the pendulum. "We need not dwell on the moral tendency of this novsl. There is, in many parts, a total want of delicacy. Among the supernumerary actors are a baron and a countess, casual visitors at the castle, whose situation may conform with German refine- ment, but is not likely to conciliate universal favor. "In spite of the glaring defects we have noticed, the present work is powerfully attractive, and evidently from the pencil of a master. The style is of finished excellence, remarkably pure, and as perspicuous as the subject and the German idiom -vyill permit; the dialogue is skillfully managed, and the portraiture of manners no less interesting than accurate. Many of the au- thor's reflections are equally profound and just. His descrip- tions, in which he appears to take particular delight, would be perfect, if they were not somewhat too miaute. The beauties of his style and manner arise, however, chiefly from a peculiar talent of seiziag, ia his descriptions, with elegance and sim- plicity all the little characteristic features, springing out of, and essentially belonging to, the spirit of his scene, his situa- tion and his subject. This circumstance gives to his narrative irresistable dramatic effect. While the physical eye sees but words, the mental gazes on a canvas, slowly drawn along, — ^not, indeed, on a canvass, for life itself, and reality, may be said to be present. "Goethe once, at the request of some friends, and to show the force of his talent in this respect, chose for his subject the fes- tivities of a carnival at Eome. His description makes a little book of itself, which, we believe, nobody ever laid dovra, after having taken it up, without finishing, and which leaves you in [67] b» BULLETIN OF THE UNIVEESITT OF WISCONSIN a state of Bacchanalian delirium, ia a condition of mind from which you do not for some hours recover. Yet there is not, in the whole picture, one word which could be left out; not a single finely-wrought sentence, not an expression betraying that the author thought of himself. He tells you simply what passes, but he tells it in such a manner, that you are all the time of the party. You feel the air in motion with the speed of the run- ning horses, — ^you suffocate in the crowd pressing forward to see which wins, — the sia amazzato assails your ear, — you try to save your candle on one side, and meet a Cerberean mouth ready to blow it out on the other. ' ' In some respects the criticism may not seem to the modem scholar to be particularly happy, but compared with all else that appears on Goethe in the American periodicals prior to the contributions of the Gottingen group, it is unsurpassed. Then, too, it has the ring of genuineness. Surely this writer had read, and had read in the original, however imperfectly; sure- ly he had felt what he describes. His strictures are the same which recur continually in almost all American criticism of Goethe. The closing pages of the review contain a translation from the French,^' a eulogy of the range, quality and assiduity of German scholarship in the fields of the literature and history of antiquity. Both the notice itself and the reviewer's com- ments are highly commendatory in their character. Important as they are, historically and intrinsically, it will not be necessary to devote further attention here to the two well-known articles of 1817 and 1824, by Edward Everett and George Bancroft respectively, firstly, because the North Ameri- cam, Review is so generally accessible, and again, because at- tention' has been called to them elsewhere.^® Suffice it to say »'"A report made In 1809 to the third class of the Institute of Parla on the actual state of Ancient History and Literature in Germany, by M.

Goethe's genius transcended all things else in the eyes of these men, but never quite caused them to lose sight of that trait in his character and his works, to which they could never become fully reconciled. Two articles in which this feature is less stressed, and in which Goethe is accorded high praise, are two anonymous re- views of an English translation of Dichtung und Wahrheit, both of the year 1825.'^ Carlyle's translation of Wilhelm Meister receives a lengthy, favorable and well written review in 1829 in a southern journal,''" but this writer, too, is "not very san- guine in the expectation that Wilhelm Meister will ever become popular with the mere English readers of either hemisphere. There are circumstances in the plot, which, however artfully combined and "wrought into a whole, are essentially abhorrent from our manners and prejudices. ' ' Professor G. C. Felton, Eliot Professor of Greek, and after- ward president of Harv^ard, has been supposed to have been among the opponents of the influence of Goethe, and Mr. E. P. Evans even says of him,*^ "To overthrow the idol (i. e., Goethe) Professor Felton translated Menzel's renowned work, which Margaret Fuller censured in the fourth number of the Dial."*'' But such a view cannot be entertained for a moment after a per- usal of Professor Felton 's review of Iphigenia, published in the Christian Examiiner of 1830.*^ The introductory pages of the article, which take a brief survey of Goethe 's position in the field of letters and notice briefly a number of his works, contain only the highest praise. His genius, his imagination, his versatility, his depth and power, the extent of his researches, his command " Cf . Nos. eS5, 664. «'Ct. No. 819. " Cf. note 29, p. 65 above.

Not a word of adverse criticism is to be found, and at the conclusion of this panegyric, the writer passes to his real subject with the words: — "We have made these remarks by no means vnth the presumption of doing justice to the Musagetes of German literature, but merely as an introduction to our view of the poem whose title we have placed at the head of this article. Our object has been to show, that, however admirable the power exhibited in this beautiful production, it is but a single item in a long list of claims which Goethe may assert to the intellectual supremacy of continental Europe." The re- view contains excellent translations, by Professor Felton, of various passages from the text, and concludes with the words: "To us the poem has ever seemed like a tone of the ancient melodies, borne to our ears, softened and mellowed by the dis- tance, from the noblest lyre of an elder Grecian age. "^* We may not conclude from this, however, that Professor Felton had only unqualified praise for Goethe. He was too much a New Englander and a Unitarian not to be repelled by the same disagreeable side of Goethe's life and works that of- fended his contemporaries in Boston literary circles. In a critical notice written by him for the same magazine a dozen years later,*" we find a sentence which we can scarcely believe penned by the same hand that wrote the Iphigenia criticism just noticed. "We believe even Goethe's licentious novels have ceased to be considered religious even to piety, as the Dial once pronounced his Elective Affinities, the most licentious SJid detestable work of modem literature, to be."'"' But there is really no inconsistency in these two contribu- tions, considered from Professor Felton 's point of view. As a close student of classic languages and literatures, the artistic beauty of such works as Iphigenia had a real charm for him. « In connection with the subject of Iphigenia It should be mentioned that, besides those mentioned In Goedeke, a fairly good metrical translation of the drama, a little too literal, howeyer, to be excellent, appeared in the Southern Literary Messenger for 1844. The translator was Judge B. Tucker, Professor of Law In William and Mary College. Cf. Nos. 1692, 1694. «Cf. No. 14T1. *»The statement referred to was by Margaret Fuller. Cf. p. 89, below.

But like his associates, ke, too, refused to acknowledge that the question of the range of realistic portrayal of real life in literature, especially in re- gard to sexual relationship, might be regarded as an aessthetic one,.*' He regarded it rather as purely ethical, as the foUow- iug passage clearly shows, and he iudignantly denounced Goethe's practices iu this respect in the most unqualified man- ner. But it would be absurd to conclude that Professor Felton was an opponent of the study of Goethe's works, or, as Mr. Evans seems to intimate, that he translated Menzel's work to counteract any such tendency. His position, as defined by him- self in his preface to the work in question,** shows this clearly, and also enables us to see the real consistency between the two above mentioned criticisms, which differ so widely from each other. "Most foreigners will be surprised at his [i. e., Menzel's] unrelenting attack on the literary character of Goethe, and his unqualified and enthusiastic apotheosis of Schiller. Some of his opinions upon the moral tendency of Goethe 's writings must be admitted to be correct. Some of the poet's heroes are such as Menzel represents them, — simply contemptible and feeble voluptuaries. But Menzel has not succeeded in showing that the poet holds these up as models of elevated character, or as personages whom it would be desirable for anybody to imitate. It is true, also, that some of Goethe's works are worthless and impure, and that the beauty of the delineation, which adorns the story of the Elective Affimties, does not afford the least ex- cuse for its licentiousness. It cannot be denied that many pas- sages of his other writings are of exceedingly loose morality. Now, upon all these offenses, let the moral judgment of man- kind pass its most indignant sentence of condemnation. They are utterly without excuse; and it is trifling with the great distinction between right and wrong, — it is tampering with the " Cf.

Their odious character can be softened down by no "aesthetic" disguises; their essential baseness can be cloaked by no out- ward garb of poetic beauty. They are disgusting and infa- mous ; let them alone. "But there is another side to the picture. We must bear in mind that many of his poems are wholly free from moral objec- tions and breathe the purest spirit of art. We must remem- ber that by far the greatest part of his long life was filled up with poetical creations and scientific pursuits. Scarcely a de- partment of human inquiry that was not subjected to his cu- rious, searching gaze. From the minutest facts of natural science up to the broadest and most magnificent views of the universe, his versatile genius freely and boldly ranged. The example he set to all the interests of civilization. — of an indus- try that never tired, — of a watchfulness that never slumbered, — in the regions of art and poetry and science, — ought to be received as some compensation for the indifference he is ac- cused of having shovvrn toward what are called the great politi- cal interests of the world ; for it may well be a question to the reflecting man, whether he cannot minister more successfully to the happiness of the race by recalling their thoughts to the humanizing influence of letters and arts, than by plunging headlong into every political controversy that agitates the age. A century hence and who will speak of the petty political con- troversies of the present day, and of the petty actors who have carried them on? And who will not speak of Goethe, Scott, Wordsworth and Southey?" The tone of the entire preface, — a very interesting commen- tary on the reception of Goethe in America, — shows very clearly that Professor Felton does not class himself among the opponents of Goethe, but on the contrary, "throws out a few hints," as he expresses it, "by way of qualifying the severity of Menzel's judgment." Nor does he translate the work thijs prefaced with any desire to "overthrow an idol." He adopts as the motto of his work, Milton's sentence, "as wine and oil [72] GOODNIGHT— GERMAN LITEKATUEE IN AMERICA 73 are imported to us from abroad, so must ripe understanding, and many civil virtues be imported into our minds from for- eign writings; — we shall else miscarry still, and come short in the attempts of any great enterprise." And since there was practically no other comprehensive work on German liter- ature available in English translation, his intention was plainly, in accordance with the spirit of the entire Ripley series, to make accessible to his countrymen a 'work which he consid- ered valuable, notwithstanding its shortcomings, of which he was well aware, a work "extremely well received in England, and strongly commended by the most respectable periodical publications there." The death of Goethe was a matter of interest to the entire civilized world. One would naturally expect to find that the periodical press, even in America, had been kept busy with this subject for some time. In reality we find astonishingly little comment. Two or three brief notices clipped from British journals,*" and the one very important essay to be discussed, make up the sum total. .A cursory search through a number of the leading newspapers, too, fails to reveal more than mere paragraph announcements, and, in several instances, the com- munication from the Weimar Gazette of March 22nd, 1832, which reached America through the medium of the Journal des Debats. Oddly enough, the event seems not to have inspired even an obituary from the pens of the few who had known Goethe personally. But in 1832 the Goethe cult was as yet very young in Amer- ica. Even in Germany the greatest divergence of opinion pre- vailed concerning his significance and the character of his in- fluence. And it must not be forgotten that Charles FoUen, who, by virtue of his position in Harvard, was perhaps the greatest of the forces then at work in the interests of German culture In America, and Franz List in Pennsylvania, were political refu- gees, intense admirers of Schiller and Komer, and, as former associates of "Wolfgang Menzel, allies of the latter in his hostility toward Goethe. Just how outspoken this hostility "Cf. Nos. 879, 886. 887. [73] 74 BULLETIN OF THE TJNIVEESITT OF WISCONSIN may have been in the public work of these men, is quite another question; but it need excite no wonder that not many cham- pions of Goethe appeared among the Harvard graduates in the early years of Dr. FoUen's labors there, and that Carlyle's en- thusiasm found even less response on this side of the water, than at home.^° But notwithstanding these facts the severity of the one formal essay called forth here by the death of Goethe, is some- what startliag. It has no parallel for bitterness of invective among the notices appearing in British journals at that time.^^ This interesting bit of criticism is from the pen of the Rev. An- drews Norton, a very prominent theologian and critic of that day. For twenty years he was tutor, librarian and professor of sa- cred literature in Harvard, his alma mater, and he figured as the chief opponent of the Naturalistic school, as represented by Theodore Parker. This, coupled with the fact that Parker was such an ardent advocate of Goethe and German literature," may perhaps account in some measure for the radicalism of Mr. Norton 's views. He was the senior editor of the Select Journal of Foreign Literature,^^ in which the essay in question appears. The latter is in the form of a review of Recent Publications concerning Goethe.^^ Two articles by Carlyle, whom the re- viewer apparently does not know, and whom he supposes to be a countryman of Goethe's, suffer most severely. Indeed, most of the bitterness is heaped upon the heads of these "Professor Asafoetidas" [Teuf elsdreck] , as he styles the English admirers of Goethe. He writes: "We ought, however, to remark, that it is rather the out- rageous admiration which has been bestowed on Goethe than anything in his own character, or writings, which we regard as likely to be very pernicious, at least to English readers. Upon their minds his writings can have little hold. An artificial "0 In England the general attitude toward Goethe at the time of his death was decidedly unfriendly. Cf.

' ' And again : " As we read, the uncouth and dark words seem to be heaving with the workings of some powerful spirit, good or evil; but, when they assume a definite meaning, it is, per- haps, an extravagant paradox, which we maj^, at first sight, hesitate to reject, because we cannot believe that one would really say anything so absurd as it seems, and may therefore question, whether the views of the writer are not deeper than our own. At other times, after the labor of disengaging the idea from the words with which it is encumbered, it appears at last to be only some familiar truth or some familiar false- hood." The reviewer pays his respects to Goethe, however, in the fol- lowing terms: "The blessed era to be brought about by this most extraordinary man, who, during a great part of his life, 'was filled full with skepticism, bitterness, hollowness and thous- and-fold contradictions.'^^ is to be effected, we must presume from what is said, not by his Werter or Fwust, but by William Meister's Apprenticeship and his later poems. We are not told what part in this grand restoration is to be accomplished by his other novel, entitled, Elective Affinities, which, to most English readers, if ever translated, will appear only a cold, disgusting story of complicated adultery. Werter and Faust may well be put out of the question. The day of the former has passed. The weakest of sentimentalists, at least out of Germany, would now regard it as a book too silly to cry over. As to Faust, the most zealous of its admirers must allow that the moral renovation which it is adapted to produce, is of a very questionable kind. " And again, speaking of Meister: — "But its wisdom is hidden wisdom to profane eyes. They will read it in vain. To them, with the exception of some passages, it will appear in the main ■"The reference Is to a passage In one of Carlyle's articles: "Did lie not be&T the curse of his time? He was filled full with its sSepticism, bitterness, hollowness and thousandfold contradictions, till his heart was lilte to break: but he subdued all this, rose victorious over all this, and manifoldly, by word and act, showed others that came after how to do the like." For. Quart. Rev. X: 1. [75] 76 BULLETIN OF THE UNIVEESITT OF WISCONSIN a vulgar, childish, immoral tale, the personages and incidents of which are not like those of the earth, and yet are on it." Again he doubts, "whether a cultivated English reader of correct principles and good taste could unhesitatingly lay his hand on any one of them [Goethe's literary works], and say it would have been a loss to mankind had it never appeared." The statements here quoted are, to be sure, among the most radical, but the entire article is unsparing in its censure. Milder judgments are passed on T. Jeffrey's review of Meister, and J. Falk's work, while von Miiller's eulogy''" is praisied for its freedom from exaggeration, and is quoted at length. But Goethe himself finds no quarter.^^ Other editorial notices in the Journal, too, sound the note of contempt or ridicule, as when Faust II is denominated "a farrago of absurd extrava- gances, "°^ and of Meister it is said: "The case is clear, that if the book is not full of 'hidden mysteries,' it is full of mims- eries."^^ But in all of Mr. Norton's criticisms there is a tone of hon- esty and conviction that makes us feel at once that his opinions are not borrowed. Whatever may be our attitude toward his judgments, we must respect in him a thoroughly sincere and fearless critic and an upright man. A bit of appreciative criticism of Fcmst I, not mentioned in Poole, is to be found in the Knickerbocker Magazine^" for 1833. The writer proceeds quite independently, and claims the translated seleotionsi offered, as his own. He asks only "the same indulgence asked for other trajislators in general, to wit, that of being considered to have failed in an impossible under- taking." He deals rather harshly, notwithstanding, with the "Cf. No. 923. " Time seems not to liave altered Mr. Norton's views. Karl Knortz, the German-American writer, (cf. Viereek, Bep. of the Com. of Ed. for 1900-01, p. 702), in Ooethe in Amerika (an appendix to (his Goethe und die Werthersett, Ziirich, 1885), cites (p. 41) a drastic criticism from a posthumous work of Norton's {Statement of Reasons, Boston), in which Goethe is contrasted very disadvantageously with Voltaire, and accused of servility, immorality, heathen- Ism and profanation of Diety.

Particularly lines 12-15 seem to be happier than the rendering of the same passage by these translators : "Spirit sublime, thou grantedst all I prayed for ! Thy face of fire thou didst not turn on me In vain. With power to feel and to enjoy. Thou gavest me bright nature for a realm. No cold and wondering visit didst thou deign That I should pay unto her glorious shrine ; But into her deep bosom mad'st me look. As in the bosom of a loving friend.

And the lone mountain thunders to its fall, — Thou bearest me kindly to some sheltered cave. And showest me there myself — myself and all The deep and wondrous mystery of my soul. And when, with soothing smile, the brilliant moon In heaven floats upward, then from wall-like rocks, And moistened shrubs arise the silvery forms Of vanished ages, casting mellow shades On contemplation's deep, retired paths. O ! now I feel that nothing perfect crowns The lot of man in this relentless world ! With that blest gift, which, to the eternal Gods Nearer and nearer draws my burning soul, — Thou gavst a friend with whom I may not part. Though, cold and insolent, his bearing shows My self-abasement — and thy precious gifts Turn into airy nothing with a breath.

[77] 18 BULLETIN OF THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN was one of the best read critics of the day/^ was at this time editor of The Literary cmd Theological Review, in which the review in question was published."^ He first treats Goethe's position, as compared with that of Schiller and Shakespeare, and finds that he greatly resembles the latter in "knowing the secret way to the human heart, and evincing not only a thorough acquaintance, but a lively sympathy with its inmost workings." This view he fortifies with good translations, apparently his own, of the Easter Cho- ruses and of Faust's speech to Wagner, ending with: "Now are the people in their very heaven. Now young and old, delighted, shout with joy: Here, here I am a man, here dare be one. "It is the homo sum, this identifying himself with the inter- ests and feelings of his fellowmen, so conspieuoua in the writ- ings of Goethe, which is to us an evidence that they will be im- mortal." Such an observation is in decided contrast to the judgments ordinarily passed on Goethe in both America and England at that time, which were prone to depict him as ut- terly selfish and cold in his Olympian self -isolation. After a brief discussion of the "unexampled variety" of Goethe's works, the reviewer selects Wilhelm Meister for de- tailed examination. His critique is sharply analytical, and, in general, very favorable, dwelling upon the author's unbiased judgment, liberality of heart, fidelity to nature, delicacy in the delineation of character, correctness, elegance and composure of style, reserve stimulating to the imagination and effective depiction of minutiae otherwise uninteresting. He even dia- courses upon the beneficial influence of realistic novels of this class in contributing to the reader's insight into human nature and his interest in men, and in moving his affections by a healthful excitement, so that he "looks on those around him " He is said to have been a. man of extraordinary penetration, easily dis- tancing all competition in his student career at Harrard, and writing with plienomenal maturity of thought at a very eaxly age.

' ' But no American critic lays down the pen after a review of Meister, without having given it a scoring on the ground of in- culcating immorality, and Mr. Woods proves no exception to the rule. "As to the particular work here under consideration, while we freely concede to it, in common with other works of the same class, that benign influence, already described, upon the social dispositions, we cannot be blinded to the serious charges which lie against it in the court of conscience. It is not that it contains descriptions of moral obliquity and degeneracy that it is censured. The Faery Queene of Spenser, the Annals of Tacitus, the Holy Scriptures themselves, contain such descrip- tions. But the writers of these works, while they point to scenes of moral polution, betray no sympathy with them. . . Unlike these writers, the author of Meister' s Ap- prenticeship enters with all his heart into the descriptions he gives of his hero's aberrations. He showa too plainly that his residence in Italy had effaced the impressions made upon him by his earlier residence among the Moravian Brethren. His mind, affected by the corrupt habit of Italian life, seems, like Byron's, to luxuriate in scenes of gross and vulgar wickedness, from which, natively, it would have shrunk with horror. His works written after his visit to Italy, while they show that his sense of what is beautiful in composition and art, had been there cultivated and improved, prove also, that his moral sense, hifl perception of right and wrong, had been dulled and perverted. He refers everything, unconsciously almost, to the standard of taste, instead of the bar of conscience. His estimate of objects is founded upon their agreeableness or disagreeableness, their ex- ternal appearance, not upon their right or wrong, — ^their inter- nal reality." And so, while we feel that Mr. Wood's basis of judgment is in so far different from that of his predecessors, that he per- ceives exactly Goethe's viewpoint, i. e., that taste, not con- science, must be the criterion of the artist,^his final attitude toward Goethe is still the familiar one, "he writes like an [79] 80 BULLETIN OF THE tfNIVEESITY OF WISCONSIN Epicureau philosopher, more than lite a Christian," and "those very attributes, by which he seemed designated for some emi- nent service to mankind, being perverted, render him only the more to be dreaded. ' ' In 1838 the historian Motley"* published a review of Dich- tung und Wahrheit aad Mrs. Austin's Characteristics of Goethe."^ Mr. "White tells us of Motley"' that when' a youth of sixteen, at Harvard, he wrote such an excellent essay on Goethe, that Dr. Cogswell sent it to Frau von Goethe. The lady was greatly pleased with it, and in her reply expressed a desire to see the first book the young man should write. The present review is an excellently written sketch of the poet's life and most prominent traits of character, well sup- ported by excerpts from the works cited. The picture is vividly drawn, and the treatment shows, moreover, feeling for many of the factors in Goethe's development, usually passed by un- noticed by the average magazine sketch, — the influence of Her- der, the Strassburg friends, Shakespeare and Goldsmith, and the fruitlessness of attempts made to turn his attention to French literature, with which he could not sympathize. His Vielseitigkeit, his tolerance, his consistency of purpose, his love of art and nature and his manifold power are brought out, and the misconceptions of his character attacked. The effort is evidently to put the poet and the man before the reader in the fairest, most impartial light. Only on the question of his in- difference to moral precept and example does the reviewer re- fuse to take a decided attitude, and prefers to "leave it to our "John Lothrop Motley, born near Boston, 1814. Following the advice ol Bancroft, he studied German, and studied In 1832-33 In Gottingen and Berlin. In Gottingen he formed a life-long friendship with Bismarck, who was also a student there at that time. Viereck, (Report of the Gom. of Ed., for 1900-1901, p. 692), quotes a letter from Bismarck to Dr. Holmes: "Motley was generally more studious than most of his companions. He did not speak German espec- ially well, but nevertheless excelled by his intellectual conversation. In the autumn of 1833 we went to Berlin to continue our studies and lived together in a house on Frtedrichsstrasse. Motley wanted tb translate Goethe's Farut at the time, and attempted to write original German verse." •s Cf. No. 116». «» White, Horatio S., Goethe in Amerika, In Cfoethe JaJiriucK, V : 219 seq.

' ' Another very excellent characterization of Goethe as a man and a poet, is found in the New York Bei£ew of the following year."' The originality and independence of this critic's point of vieAV, particularly in the interpretation of Goethe's attitude in those works usually so strongly condemned, lend to this es- say considerable significance in the present discussion. The reviewer begins by pointing out the remarkable period, memorable for so many great events, covered by the life of Goethe, who was "placed, as it were, in the stage box of the vast European theatre," and yet was so little influenced by all these things, was "so totally independent of his age." He dwells upon what he styles Goethe's "egotism," i. e., his ability to consider everything, from a flower in his garden to a Na- poleonic invasion of Germany, simply as a phenomenon of nar ture, and to devote the same calm, dispassionate attention to the one, as to the other. Further page headings are: "intel- lectual isolation," "habit of calm contemplation," "character of his philosophy," "extraordinary command of his powers," "not influenced by the love of famei," and the like. Such an appreciation of Goethe's life was not often met with prior to this time. His criticism of Meister is brief, but contains much truth, much evidence of intelligent reading. His summary is peculiar. He scouts the idea of calling the work a novel, and dubs it, "a treatise upon, or rather a digest of Universalism, — a homily upon the Universal;" and again, "a grand elemental treatise upon universal education." Of the immorality, usually com- plained of in this work, he says nothing ; but he is all the more severe upon the Elective Affinities. But even here our critic seems to strike out a new course for himself, and instead of chastising the book and the writer as intentionally and mali- ciously seductive, as his contemporaries did, he simply takes the view that the work " is a proof of mental, rather than moral obliquity," i. e., that bad and good passions, corrupt and vir- " Cf.

"The germination, the expan- sion, the gradual, and at last perfect unfolding of the guilty and disastrous passions, which form the theme of the story, are watched, investigated, experimented upon, and discussed, with the same calm and passionless attention, with which the natur- alist regards — (to look into the book itself for an illustration) — ^the combination, separation and reunion of an alkali, an acid and a gas. — The Elective Affinities, in short, is a novel in the chemical taste — its subject is adultery." The last eighteen pages of the review are devoted to Faust. The writer's conception of the character of Paust and Mephisto is, on the whole, good. His translations, — in 'which no attempt is made to attain elegance, but only the accuracy of a liter il translation, — as well as the accompanying comments, show that the writer has read intelligently and appreciatively. Again, however, his conclusions are striking. He aeems to be little acquainted with the second part, and does not consider it in his review at all, for he "likes to consider it as finished with the first part." As was commonly the case before the appearance of part two, he considers Faust as forfeiting the wager, as con- demned, and draws the inference that "there is not, in fact, in the whole range of literature, a work which contains a sounder, deeper, or more healthy moral than this drama." A certain tendency to overstate, to indulge in superlatives and extravagant expressions, detracts somewhat from the ex- cellence of the paper, but, on the whole, together with the es- says of Mr. "Woods and Mr. Motley, just noticed, it must have been of great influence in clearing up prejudice against Goethe, and in procuring for him an audience here. However, the year 1839 also brought forth an article which shows how great this prejudice still was in certain quarters. The debt of the American literature of half a century ago to Harvard College, and in particular to the Divinity School, is a great one. The greater num.ber of those whose names oc- cur most frequently in the journals of that day, had grad- uated there. Many of them were Congregational and Unitarian [82] GOODNIGHT GEEMAN LITEEATUEE IN AMEEICA 83 ministers, while others, as Emerson and Parker, having turned their backs upon Unitarianism, had embraced "Transcendent- alism." These theologians seem to have devoted more atten- tion to German letters than any other class. And the ma/- jority of them did not stop with the philosophical and theologi- cal literature, so much read at the time, but busied themselves with belles lettres. Their views, however, differed widely, par- ticularly with regard to Goethe. Leonard Woods and Theodore Parker, for example, although censuring him in some respects, praised him highly in others, while the unmitigated condemnation of the Rev. Andrews Norton"^ finds its coimterpart in a review by the Rev. William Ware.'^ The latter was apparently not an op- poser of German literature as a whole, for he was a profound admirer of Schiller, as the article to be reviewed clearly shows. Nor was he wholly blind to the ability of Goethe to "write German," which his colleague, Mr. Norton, will scarcely ad- mit; but as an arraignment of the man, Goethe, Mr. Ware's re- view of John Dwight's SeUct Minor Poems from the German of Goethe and Schiller'"' is even more stringent than Mr. Nor- ton's paper. A comparison between Goethe and Schiller, with which he begina Ms diseu^ion, shows us his attitude at once. "Schiller was proudly independent, exhausting his life in strenuous, un- relenting industry, rather than receive a pension; Goethe had no scruple in accepting from a prince enough for wants which he declares were not little. Schiller had a heart which would throb, and a mind which would utter itself freely; to Goethe the affections) were inanimate subjects for dissection, and he al- ways considered before he spoke. Schiller's writings bear evi- • denee of discipline in the sublime philosophy of Kant; Goethe had no philosophy, no creed, no principles. ' ' Again, he is just as unfavorably compared with Voltaire. "Goethe is far infer- os cf. pp. 74-6. «»A son of the religious controversialist, Henry Ware, Sr., he lived 1797- 1852. He graduated from Harvard In 1816, and from the Divinity School in 1S19, and was fifteen years pastor of the First Congregational Church In New Yorli. Prom 1839-44 he was editor and owner of the Christian Eaiaminer, (of. p. 50 above), in which the above article appears. For further sketch, ef. Ap- pleton's Bncyc. of Amer. Biog. '»Cf. No. 1194. [83] 84 BULLETIN OF THE UNIVEESITT OF WISCONSIN ior to Voltaire, not in genius and industry only, but still more in morality. In point of morality, and manliness, Voltaire was immeasurably his superior. The Frenchman had humanity; he felt for the persecuted; he had courage, and dealt vigorous blows for men who were wronged. His influence is felt in softening the asperity of codes, in asserting freedom of mind, in denouncing the severity that could hate protestantism and philosophy, even to disfranchisement, exile and the shedding of blood. But Goethe never risked a frown of a German prince for anybody. He was a prudent man, and, in the great war- fare of opinion, kept quietly out of harm's way. On religiouB subjects, he mystified; on political subjects, he was discreetly silent, except that he adored rank; worshipping birth like in- tellect, and ever ready with flattery for the ruling powers of the day." Thus he continues for pages, tracing in detail the por- trait of a cringing sycophant, a base, calculating parasite, not merely in manmer of life, but in poetry, in morality, in philosophy as well. Goethe is reproached with having been "in- different to God, and reverential only toward rank and the Bourbons," with having, "while his country was trodden xinder foot by foreign invaders, quietly studied Chinese, or made ex- periments in Natural PMiosophy," with having written "a fulsome marriage song to grace the nuptials of Napoleon," with having been "the man of letters, who, in his age becoming an Excellency and a Duke 's minister, almost alone, with but one stout ally, stood out against the freedom of the press," and "the poet, who represents the morals, the politics, the imaginar tion, the character, of the broken-down aristocracy, that hovered in the skirts of defeated dynasties, and gathered as a body-guard round the bier of legitimacy." Nor do Goethe's works fare better than his character, at the hands of this merciless critic. ' ' The infidelity of Goethe reaches to the affections and to the intelligence. He writes of love ; and it is to recount its sufferings, and leave the sincere lover to shoot himself. He writes of a hero, the liberator of his country, the martyr for its independence; and, confounding patriotism with libertinism, he casts aside the father of a family, whom [84] GOODNIGHT GEEMAN LITEEATtTEB IN AMERICA 85 Mstory has extolled, to represent a reckless seducer. He writes of a scholar, outwatching the bear, becoming wise with the stores of all knowledge, and makes his philosopher so dissat- isfied by his acquisitions, as to sell his soul to the devil for the opportunity of sensual enjoyment. Everywhere the pages of Goethe are stamped with evidence that he has no faith in reason, or in the affections; in God, or in man, or in woman." "It is this igoranee of morals, [the reviewer has just finished a scathing denunciation of Meister and EleC' tive Affinities] which gives to Goethe's works one of their peculiarities, insincerity. He is an artist and not a man. He imitates, he reproduces; he does not create, he does not build up. "In this want of sincerity lies also the secret of his want of popularity. Goethe is at once dissolute and illiberal. The poet knew in his old age, that he could never become popular. His chances at popularity are diminishing. Twaddle will not pass long for wisdom. The active spirit of movement and progress finds in his works but little that attracts sympathy. The con- servative loathes him; for there is nothing fixed and permanent and vital in Ms principles. To rest on him is like trusting in a gale to a dragging anchor that has caught only in a quick-sand. ' ' In everything that relates to firmness of principle, to love of truth itself, to humanity, to holiness, to love of freedom, to vir- tue, Goethe holds perhaps the lowest place. "What man of his genius is comparable to him for baseness? Byron, Voltaire, we had almost said Shelley, soar far above him in moral worth and generous feelingsj." At the end of this tirade of Menzelian vituperation, comes a paragraph or so of damning with faint praise, which seems al- most to intensify the effect of the preceding pages. He com- mends the poetic quality of the poems in general, but his ob- servations upon those quoted from Dwight's book invariably end with a sneer at their sincerity. Little comment is necessary. The point of view is wholly that of Menzel, and his associates. It is not impossible that Mr. Norton, too, when he wrote his bitter article of 1833,'^^ may have " Cf . pp. 74-6 atjove. [85] 86 BULLETIlf OF THE UNIVEESITY OP WISOOlirSIN known Menzel's work through Dr. FoUem, for the book ap- peared in 1824 in Germany, and FoUen, who was an associate of Menzel 's, landed in New York on Christmas day of that year. Still, Mr. Norton does not mention it among the "recent pub- lications concerning Goethe," which he reviews. But at the time Mr. Ware wrote, Menzel's book was exciting much com- ment in England, and was doubtless being translated, even at the time, by a friend of Mr. Ware's in Cambridge, appearing the following year in the Ripley series.'^ It is almost beyond question that Mr. Ware knew the work. The uncompromising condemnation of Goethe's life-long attachment to a prince and his court, is readily understood from the view-point of young American democracy, boastful of its recently acquired inde- pendence. The strictures agaiust Goethe's paganism and in- sincerity are simply an intensified expression of those found throughout the chronicles of New England opinion. Add to these factors the ability of a keen polemical writer behind the pen, and there is nothing surprising in the result. The Bev. J. F. Clarke, whose magazine, the Western Messenger, has been previously discussed,^^ is a writer whose name should find a place in a discussion of those who contributed toward spreading a higher conception of Goethe among their contem- poraries. Mr. Clarke's activity is especially noteworthy, since his journal was published in the west, where, to be sure, there was plenty of German population, but where the periodicals were slower to take up the question of foreign literature, then exciting so much comment in the east. Mr. Clarke wrote no long biographical or critical articles on Goethe, but his many brief comments and frequent translations show the high regard in fwhich he held him. One instance shall suffice. In introduc- ing his translation of the poem, Urworte. Orphisch,''* he says: ' ' Goethe was a true eclectic philosopher. He was not an eclec- tic of the weak kind, who takes from different systems what- ever suits his own narrow tastes; but one of the strong kind. «Cf. pp. 71-3. " Cf. p. 51 aljore. " Cf . No. 1093.

Thus, in the following lines, we see the great ideas which have been the elements of all philoso- phies, united into one graceful, and yet consistent, whole." The culminating influence in the tendency of the time to turn more and more attention to the study of German literature, was, as before noted, the Boston Dial. And while Jean Paid, and Novalis, Schiller and Klopstock received much attention from the group of Dial contributors, Goethe had the lion 's share. Espe- cially the first two volumes, published during the editorship of Margaret Fuller, champion Goethe against the prevailing preju- dices. In the last two, — Miss Fuller had been called to New York by Greeley as literary critic of the Tribune, and had given the editorship of the Dial into the hands of Emerson, — there is a mar'ked decrease of reference to Goethe. In these first two volumes, we are chiefly concerned 'with six articles, one by Emerson, one by Parker and four by Miss Ful- ler. But since these essays are so well known and so generally accessible, we may treat them very briefly here. Emerson's critique of Wilhelm Meister''^ is caustic enough in some respects, but is tempered with much more praise than his former critieissms had bestowed upon Goethe." The appre- ciation of the latter 's phenomenal powers, indefatigable in- dustry ajad scholarly achievements is highly eulogistic ; only his lack of high ethical idealism, — to Emerson the indispensible attribute of genuine poetry — calls forth the strongest condemna- tion." "In TJioughU on Modern Literature, cf. No. 1290. The essay is also re- printed in Emerson's Complete Works. Riverside edition, XII : 177. "Cf. his letter of November, 1838, in tbe Correspondence of Emerson and Carlyle. Edited by Chas. Norton. Bost, 18S3. "Emerson's views underwent still further change In favor of Goethe, as Is clearly manifest hy a comparison of these two criticisms with the Represen- tative Men essay of 1845, Coethe, or the Writer, of which Hermann Grimm affirmed, that it had taught him the historical view of Goethe as the great phenomenon In the universal development of the human race. (Ooethe Jahr- ^uch V-230). And Emerson himself writes In 1871, "For Goethe I thinli I have' an always ascending regard." (In a letter to Hermaan Grimm, cf. AtUm- Mo Mo., Apr., 1903, p. 467). For a detailed discussion of Emerson's relation- [87] 88 BTJLLETIlSr OF THE UNIVBESITY OF WISCONSIN The second of the Dial artielea to be noticed^, that of Theodore Parker, has already been discussed^* in regard to its general bearing on German literature. Only in the last pages of the es- say does Mr. Parker turn his attention to the "unmanly at- tacks" of Menzel upon Goethe. "Mr. Menzel is the Berserker of modern critics. He scorns all laws of literary warfare, scalps and gouges and stabs under the fifth rib, and sometimes condescends to tell a downright lie, as we shall show in its place." On the whole, Parker wields the cudgel well for Goethe, whom he holds in high regard as an artist, a student of nature and a literary genius. But how far short he came of an appre- ciation of Goethe's tremendous will-power, his absolute self-con- trol and the true philanthropy of his selfishness, may be seen from the sentence, attacked by Margaret Fuller in the following article: "That Goethe, as a man, was selfish to a very high de- gree, a debauchee and well-bred epicurean, who had little sym- pathy with what was highest in man so long as he could crown himself with rosebuds, we are willing to admit. But let him have justice, nevertheless. ' ' Although an extremist in his partisanship to German litera^ ture, Parker was evidently no such Goethe disciple as Miss Fuller. She follows up his essay with one on the same theme, Mensel's View of GoetheJ^ She refutes energetically the charges calmly admitted by Parker in the paragraph just quoted. "An Epicurean sage, says the foregoing article. This seems to me unjust. He is also called a debauchee. There may be reason for such terms, but it is partial, and received, as they will be by the unthinking, they are as false as Menzel's abuse, in the impression they convey. Did Goethe value the present too much ? It was not for the Epicurean aim of pleasure, but ships to Goethe, cf. Thomas, Calvin, Emerson's VerhSUnis zu Ooethe, in (foetJie Jahrhuch, XXIV: 132, seg.; Emerson's Opinion of Ooethe, by the present writer, Germcm American, Annals, New Series, 1 : 253, seq.

Was his private life stained by profligacy? That far largest por- tion of his life, which is ours, and which is expressed in his works, is an unbroken series of efforts to develop the higher elements of our being. I cannot speak to private gossip on this subject, not even to well-authenticated versions of his pri- vate life. Here are sixty volumes, by himself and others,, which contain sufficient evidence of a life of severe labor, steadfast forbearance, and an intellectual growth almost unparalleled. That he has failed of the highest fulfillment of his high vocation, is certain, but he was neither an epicurean nor a sensualist, if we consider his life as a whole." Miss Fuller's most elaborate article on Goethe, with which she opened the second volume of the Dial,^" is somewhat more reserved in tone, regarding his personality. She admits the difficulty of criticising- such men without seeming narrow, blind and impertinent, but she nevertheless denies him the highest praise, claiming that he lacks ' ' a certain sweetness of piety, and insight into nature's sacred secret." "Pardon him, "World, that he was so worldly; do not wonder, Heart, that he was so heartless." She even intimates that his works are the result of "rather a wide and deep wisdom than the inspirations of Genius." This last utterance ia rather difficult to reconcile with the laudations of the individual works in the same essay. "The deep coloring which fills them with life and light, is given by dipping the brush in one's own life-blood." The first part of Faust is "immortal," the second is "full of meaning, resplen- dent with beauty." William Meister is "marvelous in con- ception and beauteous in artistic execution," while the Blec- iive Affimties, the work most frequently attacked by Miss Pul- ler's contemporaries and associates, is "religious even to piety in its spirit."*^ "The precious gem is set in a ring complete in its enamel. I cannot hope to express my sense of the beauty of this book as a work of art. ' ' s»Cf. No. 1389. " Cf. p. 70 above for Prof. Felton's comment upon this phrase. [89] 90 BULLETIN OF TI^E UNIVEESITY OF WISOONSIN THe review closes wim an elaborate sketch of Iphigenia, adorned with well exeeiited original translations. Its artistic form, its truth and beauty Miss Fuller considers unequalled. Two other effusions from the tireless pen of the first Dial edi- tor are an extended commentary on Faust^^ and a very meritor- ious translation from Tasso,*' of the final scene between the poet and the princess, ' ' one of those matchless scenes in which Goethe represents the sudden blazes' of eloquence, the fitful shadings of mood, and the exquisite sensitiveness to all influences, that made the weakness and the power of Tasso." The remaining years of our period bring several miscellaneous articles, varying greatly in tone, but rather unfavorable than laudatory. The North Americcm Review of 1842 criticises Eg- mont^^ very sharply, as also does Mr. D. P. Noyes, in an essay, Goethe's Character of Egmont, in the American Whig Review,^'' three yeara later. The latter emphatically denies Groethe the gift of tragedy. In 1844 an essay in the Democratic Review^^ eulogi- zes his superb critical sense and the happy expression of his judg- ments. In the same year, however, M. M. Backus, in the first volume of the Christian Parlor Magazine^'' criticizes with con- sdderable acrimony the immoral influence of Goethe's novels: "Goethe's Werther and Ottilie can count their converts and dis- ciples in suicides ; and suicides, too, among the learned, the noble, the affluent in life. And if fiction can bring such strong delu- sion over man, that the spirit can be nerved by its influence to the last reckless act of cowardice and high crime, we need not stay to question its power in alluring men to the minor peccadil- loes, which fill up the picture of human infamy." It has seemed justifiable, on account of the importance of the subject, to extend this symposium of Goethe criticism beyond what might otherwise seem a due proportion. But a summary yields comparatively meagre results. The material is practically all alike ; the differences are chiefly in degree. From the review »2 Cf. No. 1302. s» Cf. No. 1491. " Cf. No. 1530.

[90] GOODNIGHT GEEMAN LITEEATUEE IN AMEEICA 91 of 1812*^ to those mentioned in the last paragraph, there is mani- fested both appreciation of the artist and condemnation of the worldling ; both praise for his genius, and censure for his disre- gard of moral principle, displayed in both his works and his life. In some instances the one element predominates, in some the other, but in none is either entirely lacking. It is clear that no great change of attitude took place in re- gard to Goethe. At the same time, the lists show him to have been by far the best known of the German writers, and that the interest in him was at its height during the last five years of our period. Perhaps a gradual change did take place in the country at large, a change wrought more by the poems and dramas as they became more generally known, than by the criti- cisms we have reviewed, a change which might be typified by that which took place in Emerson personally. Notwithstanding the acrimony of some critics, and although the objectionable phases of Goethe's life and works were never wholly lost sight of, it seems not unreasonable to suppose that, from 1833 to 1846, at least, the public had for him "an always ascending re- gard." SCHILLER °° Goethe's great friend and compeer found a far more ready welcome in America than did he himself. Schiller's lofty ideal- ism, his ardent patriotism and the absence of questionable real- istic tendency in the works of his maturer years, procured him a ready hearing among people who could never become quite rec- onciled to Goethe. Then, too, Dr. Pollen's influence was doubt- less behind Schiller, almost as much as behind Korner,'" and Goethe was at a great disadvantage in this respect. As late as 1839 we find a critique," and one of no small merit, too, in which a comparison is drawn between the idealism of Schiller and the worldliness of Goethe as lyric poets.

And the Rev. Mr. Ware, whose merciless attack upon the char- acter of Goethe has been noticed in the foregoing chapter,"^ turns from this tirade to the discussion of Schiller, with the words: "The latter part of the volume is filled with selections from a purer writer and a nobler man. To the character of SchiUer, there belongs a high tragic and moral interest and dig- nity. His tastes were exalted ; his love for humanity a consum- ing passion, his ardor for freedom and social progress, an ab- sorbing feeling. His elevated hopes pervaded his lectures, his essays, his tragedies, his poems. . . . SchiUer, when the deep- est gloom settled on the European world, preserved his trust unimpaired in the truths and in the providence which were to rescue freedom and virtue from shipwreck. God, the soul, and freedom, were ever the articles of his creed. ' ' Two factors, however, conspired to make the adoption of Schil- ler's works into the canon of recognized literature a tardy one; firstly, he wrote for the stage, and secondly, the first and only work, by which he was long known in America, was that fiery product of his turbulent youth, the Roihers. That Puritanic taste in literature, so long dominant in America, which elevated Gessner to the first place among German writers, was tradition- ally hostile toward the theatre, and the fact that Schiller was a playwright is an objection frequently urged against him. Even in 1834, when the Boiiers had apparently been forgotten, and after Everett and Bancroft had written so eloquently of Schil- ler's high idealism and manly character, we find a reviewer af Carlyle's biography"^ cheerfully granting the poet's genius and morality, but deploring in the same breath that such a man "should have devoted his life, or a great part of it, to the ele- •^Cf. pp. 83-6 above and No. 1194. »»Cf. No. 031. [92] GOODNIGHT GEKMAN LITEEATUEE IN AMEEICA 93 vation and dignifying of an amusement that is at war with good taste and good morals." Even F. H. Hedge'* regrets that Schil- ler devoted his talent "to a department of art so questionable in its tendency, and so surely destined to decay. ' ' The Bobiers was, however, the greatest obstacle to the attain- ment of popular favor by the works of Schiller. The play, im- ported from England in translation, was first presented here in the New York theatre in 1795, and at once found its circle of de- fenders and admirers.'" Although not a piece adapted to fre- quent presentation upon the stage, it maintained its place, — in more or less mutilated form, to be sure, — in the repertoire of the best theatres for many years, as the theatrical notes in. the jour- nals of the day prove. By it alone Schiller seems to have been known in the first twenty yearsi of the century.'" Hence the bitterness with which he was assailed. The writer of the drastic article of 1816, previously quoted," is particularly em- phatic in his denunciation of the ' ' rant, puerility, frenzy, poverty of genius and perversion of taste" of Schiller, compared with whom Kotzebue is vastly superior, although even he is "not free from the blemishes of his age and nation." Such a statement seems almost incredible to us at this day, but if we attempt for a moment to blot out every conception we have of Schiller and all his works, save the Bobbers, and consider a much garbled stage translation of this single play in comparison with the really clever adaptions of Kotzebue 's comedies, made by Dunlap, we may judge less harshly. To the superficial critic, who saw little beneath the mere external characteristics of a play, the animated quib- bling of a Kotzebue dialogue was doubtless far more enjoyable than the cumbersome extravagances of the Americanized Carl Moor.

"In- deed our state of civilization is no standard, by which the feudal ages are to be tried.

A note from the Thespian Register of a New York periodical of 1817^°^ is couched in very similar terms. "This is a Ger- man tragedy in the worst style of German taste and German morality, ' ' says this emphatic critic. ' ' The tendency of this play is in every respect pernicious, its blasphemy is horrible ; we wish it were altogether proscribed by the public." And again, in the same volume,^"* probably by the same writer, — "As proof of the good taste of the public we were glad to see so thin a house." It is a significant fact that after 1824 we find no further notice of a presentation of the Roibers. Be- yond all doubt the play had outlived its stage popularity, and soon disappeared altogether from the boards.^"' As literature we find it discussed cccasionally after this time, and usually fav- orably. A. H. Everett, in 1823,^°° denominates it "the most powerful, if not the best of his [Schiller's] productions." G. H. 102 By "exposition" la evidently meant, "exposure." "»Cf. No. 28T. iMCf. No. 388.

Both admit, however, that in point of forci- bility of language it goes far beyond the bounds of good taste. Dr. F. H. Hedge, since so weU-known as a German scholar, also writing in 1834, says of it, — The Boibers is, on the whole, the most innocent work of the kind to which it belongs. Heinse's Arddnghello, a contemporary production of the same class, is a very impure book, the tendency of Werter is questionable, and that of Fcmst still more so; but Schiller's drama, we may venture to affirm, never did injury to the morals of any one. ' '^"^ At this time such statements passed unchallenged. ScMUer had been forgiven or forgotten as the writer of the Bohhers, and had attained a far greater celebrity as an idealistic lyricist and a his- toric dramatist. As before noted,^°° we may consider the period from 1817 to 1832 as the period of the real introduction of the poet, Schiller, to the magazine public, by American writers. ^^^ Within this period a revolution took place with regard to him. Prior to 1817 the greater part of the criticism was adverse. From 1833 on it is practically all laudatory. During the introductory p^ riod, too, there is very little that is not of a favorable kind. Mme. de Stael's De I'Allemagne, and later the books of travel by H. E. Dwight and John RusseU,^^^ which praised German literature, and particularly the great Weimarians, doubtless contributed largely to this result, but the teaching of FoUen at Harvard and several magazine articles by the Gottingen men are also important fac- tors. Since the articles on Schiller are so uniform in their character, it wiU not be necessary to take them up in detail, as in the con- sideration of Goethe, and we shall be concerned with only a few of the earlier ones, which may be regarded as creating a new epoch of Schiller criticism, as having done much to clear away the clouds, that had hung about his name during the quarter of »"0f.

The first, appearing in 1821,"^ was perhaps one of the least effeotive. It begina with a brief retrospect of G-erman language and letters from the tune of Luther on, defending them against the illiberality of English reviewers, and presenting a very in- telligent appreciation of Schiller as a dramatist, historian and lyric poet, — ^this in the three introductory pages. For this reason the essay is important. The remainder of it, — a review of an English translation of Schiller's poems, — is of little intrinsic merit. From the examples given, the works reviewed must have been wretchedly done, and the reviewer's attempts at literal rhyming translation, as a standard with which the former may be compared, are curios.^^^ We can scarcely believe that this ar- ticle had much influence in establishing the reputation of Schil- ler as a balladist. But, notwithstanding its crudities, it has an historical signiflcance as the first formal review of Schiller's poems written by an American for an American periodical. A large share of the credit for having rectified the former con- ception of Schiller, — that of a writer of turgid, incoherent and blasphemorus extravagances under the name of drama, — and of having establisihed in its place the real Schiller, is due to the two scholarly essays of A. H. Everett and George Bancroft, appearing in 1823.^" The high repute in which the North Amer- icam, Review was held, and the good name of these two young men in Boston and vicinity, are sufficient grounds iipon which to ascribe a goodly share of influence to the articles in question. The merit of the latter also warrants such an assumption. The papers complement each other. Everett reviews Doering's "2 Cf . No. 474.

Everett sees in the Bothers "the work of a most powerful mind, pouring out its inspirations with the careless prodigality of conscious wealth," but he also per- ceives the discrepancy in the character of Carl Moor, in which the poet attempts to harmoinize the villainy of a bandit and the nobility of a grand idealist, "as if an artist in a picture of the battle of Waterloo, should place the Duke of Wellington on a centaur. ' ' He sketches the poet 's life and personality, character- izes concisely, but accurately, Walleiistein and the dramas of the later period, — the latter were practically unknown in America at the time, — and even comments briefly upon the historical writ- ings. The lyrics alone he leaves to his more poetical friend. Bancroft was himself a writer of verse,'^^^ ajid his gift is ap- parent in his rendering of five poems in the present review. An occasional unnatural inversion betrays the constraint of the or- iginal metre, which he retains, and of the foreign idiom, but on the whole, the translation is well managed and the poetic quality well preserved. His delineation of the poet's character was precisely what was needed to establish him in the good graces of even the most pietistie critic. "He was naturally enthusias- tic and noble; he believed in virtue and the excellence of hu- man nature, and had an abhorrence of that skepticism, which rep- resents disinterestedness as nowhere existing. He preserves the purest character throughout all his writings, and, althoaigh one or two small pieces have some allusions which are not alto- gether free from coarseness, he is never licentious; and all his worka show him to have been full of reverence for the sanctity of religion and the domestic affections. This is no sfmall praise of a poet who was almost contemporary with Wieland and Vol- taire, and who lived in a period when unexampled popularity was obtained by writers who knew how to give licentiousness and prof aneness to wit.

Dr. FoUen had written the preface, but neither he, nor the numerous reviewers who sketched the work for the magazines soon after its appearance, seem to have been clear as to the identity of the author. This book doubtless ex- erted a greater influence in favor of German literature in Amer- ica than any other of its kind. Carlyle's Goethe articles in the Edinburgh Review had evoked bitter opposition on the part of New England critics, but the Schiller biography seems to have called forth none whatever. If any prejudice against the author of the Boiiers had survived the North American Review articles of 1823, it must have succumbed to the influence of the Gar- lyle biography, and the extensive comment it caJled forth. The work was frequently reviewed,^^'' and three of the essays are of special merit. The first appeared anonymously in the American Quarterly Beview}^^ It is a splendid specimen of crit- ical English, forcible and elegant. There is no rehashing of Car- lyle, but an able treatment of the work upon a basis of sound scholarship and (apparently) first-hand knowledge of German lit- erature. The article closea with an eloquent tribute to Schiller as an artist and as a man. The other articles are no less independent. Dr. G. H. Cal- vert,^^' th« first southerner to study in Germany, commends the work in question very strongly, as both true and inspiring. His review deals particularly with the events and literary produc- tions of Schiller's early life, but discusses at length the friend- ship with Goethe, and reproduces freely from their correspon- dence. The peculiarity of the review as a whole, is, that it de- votes proportionately little attention to the dramas of the Wei- mar period.

These he finds in the ' ' puerilities and vio- lations of the most obvious laws of taste" in the Boiiers, and in a lack of philosophical depth as compared with Goethe and others of his countrymen. As an artist, however, he holds Schiller in high regard, and the poems and ballads are accorded a glowing tribute. A half dozen well executed translations grace this part of the review. At this time the controversy over Goethe, dwelt upon in the preceding chapter, was assuming its greatest proportions.

But from this time on, the com- ment upon Schiller and his works is wholly free from the bitter- ness shown toward Goethe. The revolution was complete.

Mrs. Bllett seems to have been in touch with Dr. Francis Lieber in South Carolina,^^^ and it is not improbable that he interested her in German literature, from which she made numerous trans- lations. She perhaps did more than any one of her sex to make Schiller known and appreciated in America. Her translations of his poems appeared in many journals, both in the north and in the south.

In other respects she prefers Schiller. His plot is more intricate, but more interesting; it gives a finer pic- ture of the age, better setting and local coloring; Carlos, the queen and all the minor characters are more strongly drawn than the corresponding figures of Filippo, and, all in all, she finds the play of SeMUer more poetic, more to her taste, than the colder product of Alfieri.

[104] GOODNIGHT GEEMAN LITEEATUEE IN AMEEICA 105 SUMMAHY In the preceding pages the attempt has been to outline, as clearly as might be, the growth of interest in the culture of German literature in America, as reflected in the magazines. We have seen that, in the eighteenth century, education was wholly English ia its spirit, no modem languages being reg- ularly taught. Some French waa evidently known, but prac- tically no German, the early attempts at its cultivation in insti- tutions of learning in German Pennsylvania, having been of short duration and of restricted influence. In Boston, the ac- knowledged seat of New English culture, nothing waa known of German in the eighteenth century, and, in all probability, very little prior to the third decade of the nineteenth. In the eighteenth century only English and French literature were recognized, the German being wholly ignored, as strikingly instanced by an article, — under the then existing conditions an elaborate one, — on The Wit and Taste of European Nations, appearing in 1788.^ Only occasional works, as Gessner's Death of Abel, and Goethe's Werter, flnd temporary favor. The writers most generally known, Gessner, Lavater and Goethe (Werter), illustrate well the literary tastes of the age, of which the chief characteristics were pietism and sentimentalism. The most striking phenomenon of the first quarter of the new century is the vogue of Kotzebue's plays and Schiller's Robbers. These antagonized the Puritanic element and were vigorously attacked, but held their place in the regard of the theatre-going public remarkably well, especially the Kotzebue dramas in Dun- lap 'g skillful rendering. But, with a few striking exceptions, — e. g., the able criticism of the Elective Affinities of 1812,^ and E. E. Everett's article on Goethe of 1817,^ — the first two de- cades show little sympathy for German literature in general, the general attitude being well shown by the article of 1816,* which declares all German writers, with the single exception of Gessner, to be utterly deficient in taste. 1 Cf. pp. 15-16, above. 2Cf. pp. 66-8, above.

[105] 106 BULLETIN OF THE UNIVEESITY OF WISCONSIN But, in' 1817 Edward Everett and George Tieknor, the first American German students, returned from Gottingen to promi- nent positions in the intellectual life of New England, and began heralding the praises of Goethe and Schiller. They were soon ably seconded by A. H. Everett, Geo. Bancroft, G. H. Calvert, and others, and the second period of our study sees a decided change in attitude toward German culture. Attention is being directed to German universities by leading educators, instruction in Ger- man is established by the efforts of these same men in Harvard and the University of Virginia, and German litera- ture is championed by them in the best journals of the day. This change of attitude is strikingly manifest by a comparison of the sketch of German literature of 1827 — 8,° which is based upon originals, and which may be regarded as representative of this era, with the depreciative article of 1816, embodying the spirit of the preceding decades. But existing prejudices are not to be swept aside in a moment, and even these promising beginnings seem to bear little fruit before about 1833, when a new epoch of material prosperity and intellectual activity begins. The current of interest in German literature widens very perceptibly at this point. Harvard Is now sending forth men who know German literature in the ori- ginal; Carlyle and the Gottingen men are moving many to the study of it. But the bitterest opposition is also being aroused by the new cult. The lofty idealism and religious patriotism of Schiller and Korner are above reproach, but the high Puritanic standards of morality, whether under the name of Orthodoxy, Unitarianism, or Transcendentalism, preserved intact among the leading intellectual class of the day, the clergy, are offended by the worldliness and indifference to moral rectitude of Goethe. Emerson expresses this feeling exactly, when he says: "The Puritan in me can accept no apology for bad morals in such as he."" "The vis inertiae of both Harvard and Andover ■was against it [the movement], — for fear of theologic contaml- ' Cf. p. 43 above. • Correspondence of Bmerlson and Oarlyle.

[106] GOODNIGHT GEBMAN LITEBATUEE IN AMEEICA 107 nation."^ A heated controversy wages for a decade, or more, culminating in the decisive articles of the Dial coterie, when the position of German literature, as a legitimate and popular branch of study and culture, is assured. Goethe, who has borne the brunt of the attacks, has gained recognition as an artist, but ever with a reservation regarding hist worldliness. None blame without praising him, none praise without blaming him. Schil- ler, so effectively introduced by the Gottingen men and Carlyle, acquires great popularity after 1833. His worlds are extensively translated, he is the most widely known of the lyric poets, and his influence is beyond doubt a greater factor in gaining general recognition for German literature than that of any other writer. Shortly after the Dial period a reaction sets in. The remark- able vogue of the new cult, having passed the zenith, subsides before the momentous political i^ues of the day, — perhaps, too, because the best literature that Germany was producing at that time was scarcely known, even at home, — and German literature assumes a normal position among kindred braxiches of study and culture.

However, the data of interest prior to 1800 have been summarized in the first chapter. The arrangement is chronological, the magazines under each year being arranged alphabetically, the references in each volume, in page order. Up to, and including, 1825, when they seemed to have some significance, references of general cultural interest, e. g., to German historians and muidcians, to books and sketches of travel containing information on Germany, to universities, li- braries, the Leipsic book fair, and the like, have been included. From 1826 on these have been disregarded, except where there seemed to be special reason for their retention, and mere an- nouncements of books with which no critical notice is given, have also been omitted. Theological articles, very frequent in certain journals examined, have been entirely excluded, except as they relate more directly to literature; but references to the German philosophers of note have been retained throughout. Stories and poems with German titles, but which do not appear to be translations, have been disregarded, except as they claim a basis in German legend. It has not been made a purpose of the study to identify trans- lations with originals. In very many eases this would be mani- festly impossible. But such as have been identified have been indicated.

No single col- lection is complete, but this one is large, and noay fairly be called representative. In selecting the magazines to be used as a basis for this study, technical journals were, of course, excluded; but, as the lists will Bhow, the term "literary journal," has been broadly interpreted. Re- ligious periodicals were particularly influential in America during the first half of the last century, and a few of them, notably the Christian Examiner and the Western Messenger, contained so much material, that it was deemed expedient to include the theological and religious magazines' as a class.i This entailed, to be sure, much fruit- less labor in some cases, but on the whole, so much additional material was gained that it would evidently have been a mistake to omit it.
