Johann Wolfgang Goethe was a colossus of German literature and a true Renaissance man. A novelist, dramatist, poet, humanist, scientist and philosopher, he wrote the first international bestseller, The Sorrows of Young Werther, and his epic masterpiece Faust is one of the most famous and celebrated dramas of all time.

Faust is one of the pillars of Western literature. This classic drama presents the story of the scholar Faust, tempted into a contract with the Devil in return for a life of sensuality and power. Enjoyment rules, until Faust’s emotions are stirred by a meeting with Gretchen, and the tragic outcome brings Part 1 to an end. Part 2, written much later in Goethe’s life, places his eponymous hero in a variety of unexpected circumstances, causing him to reflect on humanity and its attitudes to life and death.

Werther, a sensitive young artist, finds himself in Wahlheim, a quiet, attractive village in Germany where he seeks solace from the turmoils of love.

But his romantic tendency rules otherwise, and he falls in love with Charlotte - Lotte - even though he knows she is affianced to another.

Wenn Deutschlands größter Dichter und Deutschlands bekannteste Stimme zusammenkommen, so ist das ein großer Glücksmoment für den Hörer. Denn wer könnte Goethes Figuren treffender charakterisieren, seine Sprachkunst funkelnder zur Geltung bringen, seine Gedanken souveräner nachvollziehen als der große Goethe-Interpret Gert Westphal? Es scheint, Goethe hat beim Schreiben dieser Worte schon den König der Vorleser vor sich gesehen.

But his travel diary, Italian Journey, is by far easier to digest than anything else by him.

Als Götz von Berlichingen 1773 erschien, war das Stück eine Sensation - und machte seinen Autor Johann Wolfgang von Goethe schlagartig weltberühmt. Die Abkehr von der aristotelischen Dramenstruktur der Einheit von Handlung, Raum und Zeit war ein mutiger Schritt; das Sturm-und-Drang-Drama war Vorbild für Schillers "Räuber". Das Drama des rechtschaffenen Ritters Götz von Berlichingen, dessen Freiheitsliebe und Kaisertreue gegen einen intriganten Adel auf verlorenem Posten stehen, ist noch heute ein beliebtes Stück auf den Bühnen - und Bestandteil vieler Literaturlisten der Schulen!

Wilhelm Meister’s Apprenticeship was Goethe’s second novel, published 1795-6, almost two decades after The Sorrows of Young Werther. It again focuses on a young man but this time on his growing understanding and maturity as he makes his way in the world. As such, it is regarded as the founding work in the ‘coming of age’ genre: the ‘bildungsroman’ ( a term actually coined some 30 years later), which characterised a philosophical novel tracing the cultural, emotional and educational development of an individual from youth to adulthood.

Als der 62-jährige Goethe auf Wunsch von Freunden und Bewunderern 1811 das erste Buch seiner Lebenserinnerungen "Aus meinem Leben. Dichtung und Wahrheit" veröffentlichte, legte er damit den Grundstein zu einer monumentalen Autobiografie, die in Hinblick auf ihren literarischen Wert und Einfluss bis heute ihresgleichen sucht. In Teil I und II erzählt der Dichterfürst über Kindheit und Studium - eine Zeit, die geprägt ist von inspirierenden Begegnungen, schwerer Krankheit, aber auch tiefen Gefühlen.

"'Le affinità elettive' sono, di tutti i romanzi di Goethe, il più artisticamente perfetto. [...] Che cos'è l'affinità elettiva? Lo chiedo a un vocabolario, e leggo: 'è la proprietà di alcune sostanze di reagire tra loro formando composti nuovi'. Ci si chiede che cos'abbia a che vedere questo con un romanzo, dove sono in ballo personaggi umani. E la prima sorpresa è questa: che Goethe applica le leggi della chimica, delle scienze naturali, alla psicologia degli esseri umani. [...] Un romanzo positivo?

Faust is a tragic play in two parts by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, usually known in English as Faust, Part One and Faust, Part Two.

The earliest forms of the work, known as the Urfaust, were developed between 1772 and 1775; however, the details of that development are not entirely clear.
