The Ode to Joy
The Ode an der Freude,, or Ode to Joy of Friedrich
von Schiller, perhaps best known today for its use in Beethoven's Ninth
Symphony. We have the original German, an
English translation and a
LaTeX version of the original, if you absolutely
must have the accents. I also have an Ode to Joy attributed to
Dostoyevski, which would seem from its content to
be a satire of the original, but I've not yet had the chance to check this,
or even to verify that it is by Dostoyevski.
