Karl Wolfskehl was a German Jewish author and translator. He wrote poetry, prose and drama in German, and translated from French, English, Italian, Hebrew, Latin and Old/Middle High German into German. He developed a lasting friendship with the poet Stefan George and was a leading figure in the poet's circle of friends and followers, and also formed a part of the short-lived Munich Cosmic Circle around 1900.
