Shorter works such as the famous "She Walks in Beauty," "Stanzas to Augusta" and "So We'll Go No More a Roving" are well represented. Also here are important longer works — "The Prisoner of Chillon," "Beppo," "The Vision of Judgment," all unabridged — and lyrics excerpted from Don Juan, Childe Harold's Pilgrimage, and the play Manfred. Taken together, these are poems that draw readers quickly into the passions, humors, and convictions of a poet whose life and work truly embodied the Romantic spirit.

"Be on your guard … and take care not to fall in love!" In a charming German village, Werther, a sensitive and romantic young man, meets Lotte and falls deeply in love with her. Despite knowing she is engaged to Albert, Werther's passion for Lotte consumes him, leading to profound despair. This groundbreaking ‘confessional’ novel draws from Goethe’s own unrequited love for Charlotte Buff and the death of his friend Karl Wilhelm Jerusalem. It achieved immediate success, sparking a cult following, numerous imitations, and even criticism for its perceived endorsement of suicide. Goethe's poignant exploration of a young artist struggling against societal norms and his inability to navigate life is regarded as the first significant tragic novel in European literature. This edition features notes and an introduction by Michael Hulse, who delves into the novel's origins in Goethe's life and its influence on European culture.
