Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Up to his death in the year 1832 Goethe continued focussing on his creative work. His literary remains have still a great impact on today's thinking and especially on drama. His works are read, played and researched in schools, universities, theatres, the Internet or on Television. So most people know about the key characters in his dramas like Werther, Faust, Mephistopheles etc., which have helped form our moral and intellectual understanding of the world. His prose work is, one might say, ever-present.
What about his lyrical work? Do we find there anything which may rouse our interest, we may love reading, that can stir our imagination, which addresses feelings that touch our own life? To find answers to these questions we have started this project of editing some of his best known poems and ballads hoping they may cause reactions like »Oh, yes! I remember them« or »It's great to read them again«.
