Christoph Martin Wieland (German: ['vi?lant]; 5 September 1733 – 20 January 1813) was a German poet and writer.
He is best-remembered for having written the first Bildungsroman (Geschichte des Agathon), as well as the epic Oberon, which formed the basis for Carl Maria von Weber's opera of the same name.
His thought was representative of the cosmopolitanism of the German Enlightenment, exemplified in his remark: "Only a true cosmopolitan can be a good citizen."
