Excerpt from The Life and Works of Friedrich Hebbel The chief source of Hebbel's biographers is his extensive Diary, one of the most remarkable books in all literature. In addition there is a large fund of letters to draw on. His intimate friend, Emil' Kuh, in a monumental biography of the poet, also gives much documentary evidence. Hebbel's life, indeed, whether in its sins or its virtues, is recorded with unusual fullness. The following work is based on an inde pendent examination of the chief records, as far as that did not seem superfluous. References to the extensive literature of the subject are made Where due in the course of the discus sion, or else in the bibliographical appendix. I wish to express my thanks to Professor 0. E. Lessing, of the University of Illinois, for his helpful criticism, and also to Professor H. C. Davidsen, of Cornell, for placing his collection of monographs on Hebbel at my disposal.
