But Equal Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1729-1781) published Nathan der Weise in 1779. Written during the Enlightenment period‚ Lessing aims to capture the religious intolerance of his time and refers to this theme as the “scourge of his age”.

I started figure skating when I was 8 years old. I went to a birthday party at an ice rink‚ and signed up for skating shortly after. More advanced skaters filled the middle of the rink‚ doing spins and jumps. I fell in love the sport. I like how it was good for both summer and the winter.
