He began his literary career as a dramatist with ''Camoëns'' and ''Bretislav'' (1843), which caught the attention of Ludwig I and led to a position at the court theatre. After the Revolution of 1848, his support for Johannes Ronge and the failure of his marriage caused him professional difficulties and he was obliged to retire from the service, moving into a two-storey house at the head of the Tegernseer Landstraße in the south-east of the city. He obtained great popularity in the 1860s as a prolific writer of historical novels based on events in Austrian and Bavarian history. He was granted the Order of St Michael in 1869, the next year was appointed director of the ''Volkstheater'' on Gärtnerplatz, resigning the position after a few years. He was ennobled in 1876. He died in Munich, where today a street bears his name. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hermann von Schmid」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
