Friedrich Maximilian von Klinger (February 17, 1752 - February 25, 1831) was a German dramatist and novelist.
Klinger was born of humble parentage at Frankfort on Main (now modern Frankfurt), on the 17th of February 1752.
Klinger was a man of vigorous moral character and full of fine feeling, though the bitter experiences and deprivations of his youth are largely reflected in his dramas.

The play, which is in rhytmic prose, ranges in tone from Shakespearean mob scenes to what Friedrich Schiller called a *salto morale in eine Opernwelt* (sommersault into opera) at the end; actually, in their choral effect and the way that they symbolize the situation of the hero, the mob scenes are already operatic.

 Philipp Christoph Kayser
While at grammar school in Frankfurt, Kayser became a close friend of Friedrich Maximilian Klinger, who was to become the most successful dramatist of the so-called ‘Storm and Stress’ movement – a movement that in fact took its name from one of his own plays.
He and Kayser soon made friends with Goethe, and then their little group was joined by the Strasbourg poet Heinrich Leopold Wagner and by Jakob Michael Lenz (though the latter remained an ‘external’ member on account of his remaining resident in Strasbourg).
A second collection appeared two years later, this time including settings of Klinger and Wagner as well as the Goethe songs recorded for the first time here.

It was named after Friedrich Maximilian Klinger's drama Der Wirrwarr (1776), to which the physician of Winterthur and enthusiastic disciple of J. Lavater's ideas Christoph Kaufmann gave the name Sturm und Drang.
It has become the designation not only for the movement but also the epoch of German literature from about 1767 (Herder's Fragmente) to 1785 (the beginnings of the German Klassik), which epoch is also called the Geniezeit after the movement's glorification of the man of original genius.
In addition to the youthful Klinger, the youthful Goethe, J. Lenz, H. Wagner, and Friedrich (Maler) Müller were the principal figures on the scene.

Müller, for example, admitted that events had overtaken his published conclusions, while Friedrich Gentz, the influential adviser to Metternich, filled one thick folio volume after another with his reflections on the revolution without publishing them, because he found his own explanations inadequate.

At this time he became interested in the art of Arnold Böcklin and Max Klinger and the writings of Friedrich Nietzsche and Arthur Schopenhauer.
His early style was influenced by the paintings of Arnold Böcklin [16 Oct 1827 – 16 Jan 1901] and Max Klinger, which juxtapose the fantastic with the commonplace.
By 1910 he was living in Florence, where he began painting a unique series of landscapes such as The Enigma of an Autumn Afternoon (1910), in which the long, sinister, and illogical shadows cast by unseen objects onto empty city spaces contrast starkly with the bright, clear light, which is rendered in brooding green tonalities.
