  Karl Wilhelm Friedrich von Schlegel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Karl Wilhelm Friedrich von Schlegel (March 10, 1772 - January 11, 1829), German poet, critic and scholar, was the younger brother of August Wilhelm von Schlegel.
A permanent place in the history of German literature belongs to Friedrich Schlegel and his brother August Wilhelm as the critical leaders of the Romantic school, which derived from them most of its governing ideas as to the characteristics of the middle ages, and as to the methods of literary expression.
Friedrich Schlegel's wife, Dorothea, was the author of an unfinished romance, Florentin (180,), a Sammlung romantischer Dichtungen des Mittelalters (2 vols., 1804), a version of Lother und Maller (1805), and a translation of Madame de Staël's Corinne (1807-1808)--all of which were issued under her husband's name.

 Friedrich Hayek - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Friedrich August von Hayek (May 8, 1899 in Vienna – March 23, 1992 in Freiburg) was an economist and social scientist of the Austrian School, noted for his defense of liberal democracy and free-market capitalism against a rising tide of socialist and collectivist thought in the mid-20th century.
It was Friedrich von Hayek's The Constitution of Liberty.
I have arrived at the conviction that the neglect by economists to discuss seriously what is really the crucial problem of our time is due to a certain timidity about soiling their hands by going from purely scientific questions into value questions.

Friedrich was another nephew of Albrecht's, and the two were very close.  So much so, that upon the death of Albrecht on 18 February 1895, the entire fortune of the Archduke passed to Friedrich, who became the Third Duke of Teschen and was suddenly one of the richest men in the Empire.
Among the rich farm and woodlands of Friedrich's in Bohemia, Moravia, Silesia, and Hungary, there were also many industries, and Friedrich took an active interest in their function.  He even brought his family to the various factories, mines, and lumberyards to acquaint them with the business.
Friedrich often dressed in peasant costume, and enjoyed conferring with the locals in town, with whom he felt more comfortable than the diminished high society of his former days.

Friedrich's ability to synthesize the stylistic and conceptual legacy of avant-garde film practice with an analytical sense of human experience makes her exemplary of the evolution of American experimental film practice from the 1980s to the present.
Notably, this structure of development is presented backwards from Z to A, suggesting the rebellious nature of Friedrich's project: to 'unlearn' her upbringing, and attempt to exorcise some of the founding traumas of a childhood stamped by a sometimes abusive, but mostly absent father.
Although Friedrich's camera is distanced, Stuart Klawans describes it as “both curious and shy, as if the filmmaker were part anthropologist, part kid at the candy store window.” (9) Framing and editing analyze subtle but telling moments and gestures, from the stoic catatonia of the grooms to the dominance of wedding photographers choreographing the proceedings.

Informal discussions with colleagues and friends stimulated a greater interest, which was reinforced by Friedrich Hayek's powerful book The Road to Serfdom, by my attendance at the first meeting of the Mont Pelerin Society in 1947, and by discussions with Hayek after he joined the university faculty in 1950.

 Friedrich
Paul Friedrich in a highly influential paper, "The Symbol and its Relative Non-Arbitrariness" (Friedrich 1975, 1979) argues that "the symbols of language are quintessentially non-arbitrary, on two grounds: the objectively systematic character of language and the subjective intuition of the speaker." (Friedrich 1979:3).
I would like to extend Friedrich's argument to the realm of what I term performative symbols, these being tropic structures in culture that are realized only when actively performed.
Friedrich's two grounds for the non-arbitrariness of symbols are even clearer when applied to performative symbols.

Friedrich's landscapes are based entirely on those of northern Germany and are beautiful renderings of trees, hills, harbors, morning mists, and other light effects based on a close observation of nature.
Even some of Friedrich's apparently nonsymbolic paintings contain inner meanings, clues to which are provided either by the artist's writings or those of his literary friends.
For example, a landscape showing a ruined abbey in the snow, Abbey with Oak Trees (1810; Schloss Charlottenburg, Berlin), can be appreciated on one level as a bleak, winter scene, but the painter also intended the composition to represent both the church shaken by the Reformation and the transitoriness of earthly things.
