Until now, August Wilhelm Schlegel (1767-1845), has not received as much research attention as his more well-known brother Friedrich Schlegel. Besides focusing on August Schlegel'¬"s life and poetic work and his place in literary history, the contributions in this handbook-like volume examine his significance for the development of European Romanticism and its specific aesthetics. Several contributions are devoted to the reception of his theory in Europe. The book sketches a comprehensive picture of this important representative of Romanticism and describes his work and his philological impulses as a European event.
