Jeffrey High and the Romance, German, Russian Languages & Literatures Department presented a stellar 3 day Colloquium on the life and works of Friedrich Schiller (1759-1805) —One of Germany’s first historians. The 2009 Long Beach Schiller Colloquium on the occasion of his 250th birthday took place on the CSULB campus September 10-12 and promoted debate on the many flash-points and canonical reception shifts in the cyclically polarized reception of Schiller and his works.
