The founder of the poetry of experience, he reintroduced intimacy to the public world, and his poems have something for everyone. Nonetheless, Goethe the poet remains relatively unknown to contemporary English-speaking audiences, partly because of the difficulties his poetry has posed to translators. This volume contains translations, side by side with the German originals, of Goethe’s major works—all prepared by eminent American and English writers and all testifying to the poet’s genius.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Collected Works of Goethe presents modern translations of a representative portion of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s vast body of work. Selected from more than 140 volumes in German, this twelve-volume series remains the standard collection in English and features poetry, drama, fiction, memoir, criticism, and scientific writing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Johann Wolfgang von Goethe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43489478705270,"sku":"9780691292090","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/1374\/6550\/files\/CoreSourceHub_50dbac9f-7cd1-47e9-ad22-42910c79dc00.jpg?v=1780868483","url":"https:\/\/ingramacademic.com\/products\/selected-poems-9780691292090","provider":"Ingram Academic \u0026 Professional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
