For ten points, name this German romantic poet and author of An Die Freude (Ode to Joy).
His first play involves the protagonist, Karl Moor, being disowned by his father the Duke on the advice of his villainous younger brother Franz, after which he commits himself to a life of crime against the established social order. That work, Die Räuber, reflects the author's resentment against his father's employer, Duke Karl Eugen of Württemberg, who he viewed as a petty tyrant. His first experiment with blank verse was 1787's Don Carlos, which centered on the conflict between the title character and his father over the latter's third wife. Also a noted historian, he was given a professorship at the University of Jena, where he produced his most famous drama, Wallenstein.
