The Sorrows of Young Werther (Die Leiden des jungen WerthersDie Leiden des jungen Werthers)

This book has been central to my interest in Goethe's work. Particularly; Goethe's subsequent distancing of himself from the Romantic movement in which he himself was so instrumental. His favouring of the Classical, but with an underlying Romantic foundations is something I'm very interested in hinting at within my work.

Of course Thomas Mann's 1939 novel Lotte in Weimar: The beloved returns is an interesting response to Goethe's novel which is also of interest to my project. The novel takes Goethe's denouncement of Romanticism as a premise for the return of the woman that Lotte's character was based on, to Weimar at the height of Weimar Classicism.
