 DAVID FRIEDRICH STRAUSS - LoveToKnow Article on DAVID FRIEDRICH STRAUSS
In 1825 Strauss passed from school to the university of TUbingen.
The professors of philosophy there failed to interest him, but he was strongly attracted by the writings of Schleiermacher, which awoke his keen dialectical faculty and delivered him from the vagueness and exaggerations of romantic and somnambulistic mysticism.
Strauss resumed his literary activity by the publication of Der Romanliker auf dem T/zron der Csaren, in which he drew a satirical parallel between Julian the Apostate and Frederick William IV.

It also has extraordinarily funny actors in Act III in Helmut Lohner as the jailer Frosch--his droll vocal delivery, rubber legs and startlingly athletic physical comedy are side-splitting--and baritone Erich Kunz, a VSO veteran still in very fine voice, as the Jail Warden Frank--his physical comedy, although not as spry, is equally hilarious.
I particularly like the recent release from Glyndebourne, but must admit that the comedy in that production's Act III is nowhere near as funny as in this one from Vienna.
