Abstract

Abstract What path did the textual history of Schleiermacher’s Charades take between the first handwritten transcription around 1806 and the oldest printings in the 1820s and 1830s – which lack a clear authorisation and differ greatly in textual form? In this unclear situation, Schleiermacher philology has also discussed a copy by an unknown hand as a textual witness (of dubious value), which can now be clearly assigned and dated on the basis of the accompanying letter and a comparison of manuscripts. It documents the circulation of the sociable occasional poems in the Hallenser Kreis (Halle Circle) in 1806/07 and at the same time forms the source for the second verifiable print in 1837.
