1911
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
1911
A novel written in the late 18th century, known for its emotive exploration of love and existential despair. The story centers around Werther, a sensitive and passionate young artist, who becomes infatuated with a woman named Lotte, who is unfortunately engaged to another man, Albert. The narrative captures Werther's tumultuous feelings as he grapples with his unrequited love, deep philosophical reflections, and the struggles of human emotion. At the start of the novel, Werther writes a series of letters to his friend Wilhelm, expressing his joy at leaving behind a previous life and his complex feelings for Lotte. He reflects on the beauty of nature surrounding him and the paradox of human emotions, oscillating between happiness and melancholy. Through these letters, we gain insight into his character, his appreciation for simplicity and artistry, and his growing attachment to Lotte, as well as his observations of the people around him, indicating a longing for genuine connection. The opening sets the stage for Werther's intense emotional journey, hinting at the eventual turmoil that will arise from his unfulfilled desires.
