The plays cover a wide range of themes, from love and betrayal to politics and morality, and showcase Goethe's mastery of both tragedy and comedy. The book also includes an introduction to Goethe's life and work, as well as notes on each play to provide context and aid in understanding. This collection is a must-read for anyone interested in German literature or the history of drama.1850. 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. This volume contains some of his most noted works including: Faust; Iphigenia in Taurus; Torquato Tasso; Egmont; and Goetz von Berlichingen, Sir Walter Scott's Introduction.
