Autorenporträt
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749–1832) is widely recognized as one of the preeminent figures in German literature. As a novelist, poet, playwright, and statesman, Goethe's influence extended beyond literature, permeating the fabric of German intellectual life at the close of the Enlightenment and the rise of Romanticism. He penned numerous works, among which 'Faust' is often considered his magnum opus, a profound exploration of the human condition. His novel 'The Sorrows of Young Werther' gained tremendous popularity and is credited with initiating the Sturm und Drang movement in German literature, an important forerunner to Romanticism. He was also a real polymath, contributing to the fields of science, with his work on color theory and plant morphology, and articulating the concept of 'World Literature.' Known for his lyrical poetry, Goethe's 'West-Eastern Divan' displayed his fascination with the Persian poet Hafez, showcasing a bridge between Western and Eastern literary traditions. Goethe's works, characterized by deep philosophical insights and a commitment to form, have been assembled in collections such as 'The Essential Works of Goethe,' offering a comprehensive view into his profound and extensive oeuvre. His literary style seamlessly blends classical ideals with intellectual curiosity, creating works that remain vital to discussions of aesthetics, ethics, and the dynamics of the human spirit.
