Yet, only in 1849 did Humboldt learn of Schiller's opinion from the published correspondence between Schiller and K{\"o}rner. Nonetheless, Humboldt declared that this basically unjust characterization of himself by Schiller would never prevent him from admiring the great German playwright and poet; moreover, Humboldt looked for comfort in a similarly harsh opinion of Johann Gottfried Herder also expressed by Schiller. In the end, Humboldt could barely conceal his feelings of disappointment regarding Schiller's opinion, especially because Humboldt had considered Schiller to be his friend.}, language = {de} }
