Schiller is a modernist with classical underpinnings.
classical: looks to nautre for inspiration and to humanity in its infancy, to the Greek world, for guideance; art's task is to recover and sustain a graceful naturalness that defines the beautiful.
modern: Kant's transcendental philosophy. Taken by the sublimity of humanity that sets condition for the very understanding of nature and possessses moral dignity by bing able to free itself from the grip of nature and tradition.
