Summary "Chr. M. Wieland's Biographie" by Heinrich Döring is a historical biography written in the mid-19th century. The book outlines the life and development of Christoph Martin Wieland, a prominent German poet and philosopher, detailing his formative years, education, and early literary endeavors. Döring sheds light on Wieland's character, influences, and the notable relationships that shaped his intellectual and emotional journey. The opening of the biography provides a detailed account of Wieland's early life, beginning with his birth in 1733 in the village of Ober-Holzheim, near Biberach. It discusses his father's background as a clergyman and his family's struggles, which had a significant impact on Wieland's upbringing. The text highlights his early love for literature and poetry, detailing how his education and early encounters with classical literature ignited a passion for writing. Additional insights into his character illustrate his inclination towards introspection and the moral dilemmas he faced during his youth, notably his religious fervor contrasted with emerging skepticism. This introductory section sets the stage for examining his later intellectual pursuits and contributions to German literature. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
