A key work in the German ''Sturm und Drang'' movement, Johann Goethe''s autobiographical epistolary novel The Sorrows of Young Werther is a defining moment in early Romanticism, which has influenced writers from Mary Shelley to Thomas Mann. This Penguin Classics edition is translated from with an introduction by Michael Hulse.Visiting an idyllic German village, Werther, a sensitive young man, meets and falls in love with sweet-natured Charlotte. Although he realises that she is to marry Albert, he is unable to subdue his passion and his infatuation torments him to the point of despair. The first great ''confessional'' novel, The Sorrows of Young Werther draws both on Goethe''s own unrequited love for Charlotte Buff and on the death of his friend Karl Wilhelm Jerusalem. The book was an immediate success, and a cult rapidly grew up around it, resulting in numerous imitations as well as violent criticism and suppression on the grounds of its apparent support of suicide. Goethe''s sensitive exploration of the mind of an artist at odds with society and ill-equipped to cope with life is now considered the first great tragic novel of European literature.This edition includes notes and an introduction by Michael Hulse, who explores the origins ...

Johann Wolfgang Goethe published his epistolary book The Sorrows of Young Werther in 1774. It was one of the key works of German literature's Sturm und Drang era and had an impact on the subsequent Romantic movement. In five and a half weeks of intense writing from January to March 1774, Goethe completed Werther. A compilation of letters from Werther, a young artist with a sensitive and passionate nature, to his friend Wilhelm was published as The Sorrows of Young Werther. These provide a personal description of his time spent in the fictional village of Wahlheim, where he first met Charlotte, a stunning little girl who looked after her siblings after their mother passed away. Despite being aware that Charlotte is engaged to Albert, a man eleven years her older, Werther yet falls in love with Charlotte. After a while, his grief becomes so unbearable that he has to leave Wahlheim for Weimar, where he meets Fräulein von B. When he visits a friend unintentionally and unpreparedly has to attend the weekly gathering of the aristocratic set there, he feels tremendous discomfort.

Editorial censorship has long obscured the true form and content of the Elegies, which were inspired by Goethe''s sexual liberation in Italy and his love for the woman he took as his unofficial wife on his return to Germany.They are here presented as Goethe boldly conceived them together with the long-surpressed narrative poem known as The Diary. Superficially the story of a failed sexual adventure by a man of 60, at another level this is a profound study of the psychology of desire and the nature of fidelity, as well as being one of the most beautiful and good-humoured poems in the German language.

Throughout his long, hectic and astonishingly varied life, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749–1832) would jot down his passing thoughts on theatre programmes, visiting cards, draft manuscripts and even bills … Goethe was probably the last true ‘Renaissance Man’. Although employed as a Privy Councillor at the Duke of Weimar’s court, where he helped oversee major mining, road-building and irrigation projects, he also painted, directed plays, carried out research in anatomy, botany and optics – and still found time to produce masterpieces in every literary genre. His fourteen hundred Maxims and Reflections reveal some of his deepest thought on art, ethics, literature and natural science, but also his immediate reactions to books, chance encounters or his administrative work. Although variable in quality, the vast majority have a freshness and immediacy which vividly conjure up Goethe the man. They make an ideal introduction to one of the greatest of European writers.

''I have so much and my feeling for her devours everything, I have so much and without her everything is nothing.''The Sorrows of Young Werther propelled Goethe to instant fame when it first appeared in 1774. Goethe drew on his own unhappy experiences to tell the story of Werther, a young man tormented by his love for Lotte, a tender-hearted girl who is promised to someone else. Overwhelmed by his feelings, Werther begins to see only one way to escape from his anguish.Goethe''s story of a sensitive young artist alienated from society channelled the Romantic sensibility of the day and led to a wave of imitations. Werther''s searching introspection and the passionate intensity with which he bares his soul have an immediacy that is all the more powerful for being expressed in letters; charting the course of his emotions, they give added drama to the unfolding account. David Constantine''s new translation captures the novel''s lyric clarity, and his introduction and notes illuminate Goethe''s achievement.

Leaving behind the growing frustrations of administrative work, a difficult love-affair, and lack of time to write, he discovers himself again as a sensuous being and an artist. His fresh and spontaneous notes, sometimes dashed down at crowded tables in primitive Italian inns, bring together art and nature, Antiquity and the Renaissance, aesthetics and science, observations of climate, rocks, plants, and the Italian people, in an unpremeditated mixture through which the poet''s mature vision of the natural and human world can be seen taking shape.

Translated, with an Introduction and Notes by John R. Williams.Goethe''s Faust is a classic of European literature. Based on the fable of the man who traded his soul for superhuman powers and knowledge, it became the life''s work of Germany''s greatest poet. Beginning with an intriguing wager between God and Satan, it charts the life of a deeply flawed individual and his struggle against the nihilism of his diabolical companion Mephistopheles.Part One presents Faust''s pact with the Devil and the harrowing tragedy of his love affair with the young Gretchen. Part Two shows Faust''s experience in the world of public affairs, including his encounter with Helen of Troy, the emblem of classical beauty and culture. The whole is a symbolic and panoramic commentary on the human condition and on modern European history and civilisation.This new translation of both parts of Faust preserves the poetic character of the original, its tragic pathos and hilarious comedy. In addition, John Williams has translated the Urfaust, a fascinating glimpse into the young Goethe''s imagination, and a selection from the draft scenarios for the Walpurgis Night witches'' sabbath - material so ribald and blasphemous that Goethe did not dare publish it.

An authoritative English translation of one of the most important works in the history of the novelWilhelm Meister’s Apprenticeship (1795–1796), Goethe’s second novel, is a foundational work in the history of the genre—perhaps the first Bildungsroman, a coming-of-age story focusing on the growth and self-realization of the main character. The story centers on Wilhelm, a young man living in the mid-1700s who strives to break free from the restrictive bourgeois world of his upbringing and seek fulfillment as an actor and playwright. Goethe’s novel had a huge impact on the Romantics. Hegel, Schelling, Novalis, and Schopenhauer considered it one of the most important novels yet written. Schlegel famously called it one of the “three tendencies of the age,” along with the French Revolution and the philosophy of Fichte. And Beethoven, Schubert, and Schumann set poems from the novel to music. It also had a major influence on nineteenth-century British writers, including Thomas Carlyle, who was its first English translator, and George Eliot. Drawn from Princeton’s authoritative collected works of Goethe, and featuring a new introduction by David Wellbery, this is the definitive English version of a landmark of world literature.

Druhý díl tragédie Faust byl dlouhou dobu považován za nesrozumitelný, avšak ve dvacátém století byl jeho význam, a tedy i význam díla jako celku, doceněn. Goethe v něm opouští individuální osudy, shrnuje sumu svého, potažmo lidského poznání. Faust dále testuje jeho hranice, zakládá rodinu, podniká, aby nakonec ve svém snažení vize v podstatě politické selhal - přesto, že umírá v iluzi opaku. Sluha a pokušitel Mefisto selhává rovněž, neboť se vyjeví, že Faustova duše mu - v rozporu s očekáváním - nemůže náležet. Goethe mistrně propojuje filozofické i politické myšlenky s poetickým vyjádřením, čímž vytváří dílo, které oslovuje nejen intelekt, ale také emoce.

Z rozsáhlého díla velikána světové literatury Johanna Wolfganga Goetha (1749-1832) ční dramatický text, na němž básník s přestávkami pracoval po celý život - Faust. Méně známá je ovšem komorní a zárodečná podoba tohoto dramatu, jež je označována někdy jako původní Faust nebo také Urfaust. Příběh o Faustovi a Markétce nenapsal Goethe jako slavný a oceňovaný génius, ale jako mladík, a vložil do něj svůj silný soucit, touhu po vzdoru a prožitku a víru ve spravedlnost. Stěžejním podnětem bylo odsouzení a poprava služebné, která z obavy před veřejnou hanbou - jsme v druhé polovině 18. století - zabila své novorozené dítě. Goethe sledoval průběh procesu a popravu a tento zážitek spolu s dalšími podněty a inspiracemi dal vzniknout hlavním postavám dodnes působivého a bezprostředního hrůzného příběhu o zneužívání druhých, o bezohlednosti a trestu, o touze.

In 1786, when he was already the acknowledged leader of the Sturm und Drang literary movement, Goethe set out on a journey to Italy to fulfil a personal and artistic quest and to find relief from his responsibilities and the agonies of unrequited love. As he travelled to Venice, Rome, Naples and Sicily he wrote many letters, which he later used as the basis for the Italian Journey. A journal full of fascinating observations on art and history, and the plants, landscape and the character of the local people he encountered, this is also a moving account of the psychological crisis from which Goethe emerged newly inspired to write the great works of his mature years.

J. W. Goethe, obecně známý hlavně jako autor Fausta, byl nejenom dramatik, ale i básník, romanopisec, přírodovědec a rovněž politik – poradce tehdejší vrchnosti. Jeho autobiografie proto daleko přesahuje hranice životopisného textu. Jejím jádrem je jakási osobitá interakce soukromé osoby J. W. Goetha a prostředí, situace a doby. Referování o tomto vzájemném působení je velice podrobné – proto je text tak rozsáhlý. Jeho poutavost spočívá hlavně v dramatičnosti všeho, co se tu děje jaksi pod hladinou zdánlivě neutrálního referování. Má se všeobecně za to, že podobná „autobiografie“ ve světovém písemnictví vlastně neexistuje. Je jedinečná z jakéhokoli hlediska.

Obsáhlé autobiografické dílo líčí osudy Goetheho během jeho pobytu v Itálii v letech 1786 až 1788. Důvěrné setkání se zcela novým světem a především s antikou znamenalo tvůrcovo znovuzrození. Cestopis není jen dokumentem o jedné etapě jeho života, ale i svědectvím o středomořské zemi, o jejím duchovním ovzduší, přírodě, o umění, jež tato země dala v průběhu dlouhých staletí světu a jež bylo pro básníka ze "severu" povzbuzující vzpruhou. Města i umělecká díla, která Goethe popisuje, většinou ještě existují, byť většinou už v proměněné podobě. To či ono umělecké dílo se však dnes již nachází jinde, některé obrazy jsou atribuovány jiným autorům, mnohé antické sochy se jinak vykládají. Proto můžeme dnes Goethovu Italskou cestu vnímat nejen jako hluboce ukotvený cestopis, který jako u všech velkých autorů přerůstá v dílo širšího než jen cestovatelského významu, ale i jako výzvu k poutavému seznamování s Itálií, k dobrodružství poznání, k propátrávání nových souvislostí.

Eduard and Charlotte are an aristocratic couple who live a harmonious but idle life in their estate. But the peace of their existence is thrown into chaos when two visitors - Eduard''s friend the Captain and Charlotte''s passionate young ward Ottilie - provoke unexpected attraction and forbidden love. Taking its title from the principle of elective affinities - the theory that certain chemicals are naturally drawn to one another - this is a penetrating study of marriage and adultery. Inspired by Goethe''s own conflicting loyalties as he battled to maintain his relationship with his wife and control his feelings for a younger woman, Elective Affinities is one of the greatest works of the romance era: a rich exploration of love, conflict, and the inescapable force of fate.

The legend of Faust grew up in the sixteenth century, a time of transition between medieval and modern culture in Germany. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) adopted the story of the wandering conjuror who accepts Mephistopheles''s offer of a pact, selling his soul for the devil''s greater knowledge; over a period of 60 years he produced one of the greatest dramatic and poetic masterpieces of European literature.David Luke''s recent translation, specially commissioned for The World''s Classics series, has all the virtues of previous classic translations of Faust, and none of their shortcomings. Cast in rhymed verse, following the original, it preserves the essence of Goethe''s meaning without sacrifice to archaism or over-modern idiom. It is as near an `equivalent'' rendering of the German as has been achieved.

• A fascinating picture of the impact of the German Romantic landscape painter''s art on his contemporaries • Visionary, disconcerting, enthralling: Caspar David Friedrich’s art mined a vein of feeling completely new in painting • Never before available in English, these reminiscences of the painter and assessments of his path-breaking art include texts by some of the greatest names of the German Romantic movement – Goethe, Kleist, the painter Carus, the psychologist Schubert – as well as Friedrich’s own Commandments of Art, and letters by the Russian poet Zhukovsky Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840), one of the great visionaries of European art, spent all his life in Northern Germany, apart from four years studying in Copenhagen, and his output appears to consist almost entirely of German landscapes. But far from being parochial, he was, in the words of the French sculptor David d’Angers, the artist who ‘discovered the tragic in landscape’. His paintings assemble minutely observed elements of nature into compo-sitions that celebrate the riches and the melancholy of a cosmos fully imbued with the divine, while never losing an almost hallucinatory engagement with reality.
