Recognized as one of the greatest European writers and thinkers of modern times, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749 - 1832) profoundly influenced the growth of literary romanticism. Best known for his lyrical poetry, for his novels (The Sorrows of Young Werther is a good example) and particularly for his dramatic poem Faust, Goethe also made substantial contributions to biology, history and philosophy of science. In 1773 published The Sorrows of Young Werther, a key work of Romantic literary movement which then turned his passion for Charlotte Kestner, who was engaged to one of his friends. This work expresses the vital conflict of who is in love, exposing all the pessimism of impossible love, taking as appropriate reason a recent event which had been a social scandal. - A drama of love with a tragic ending. - A key exponent of literary romanticism
