Körner's Morning (Körners Vormittag) is a verse play by Friedrich Schiller. His only comedy, it was written for his friend Christian Gottfried Körner's birthday, probably between 5 June and 2 July 1787. Intended to be privately produced, it parodies the Dresden circle around Körner and his tendency not to finish works or only to finish them with great difficulty.[1]
It was first published by Carl Künzel in 1862 (over 55 years after Schiller's death) as Ich habe mich rasieren lassen (I let myself shave).[2] It shows a domestic phase in Schiller's life and simultaneously documents a piece of 18th century everyday life.[3]
