Goethe is widely recognized as the greatest writer of the German tradition. The Romantic period in Germany is known as the age of Goethe, and Goethe embodies the concerns of the generation defined by the legacies of Rousseau, Kant, and the French Revolution. His eminence is derived not only from his literary achievements as a lyric poet, novelist, and dramatist but also from his often significant contributions as a scientist (geologist, botanist, anatomist, physicist, historian of science) and as a critic and theorist of literature and of art. His most noted works are The Sorrows of Young Werther, Wilhelm Meister and Faust. The novel Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre became the prototype of the German Bildungsroman, or novel of character development. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing. |
