Often cited as the epitome of Romantic tragedy, The Sorrows of Young Werther encapsulates the melancholy idealism of Romantic literature. Seldom has the Romantic feeling been expressed more poignantly than in Goethe’s famous work, unless by the forgotten novellas of his contemporary, Chateaubriand. Much like Werther, the publication of Rene and Atala inspired an upwelling of Romantic sentiment among the reading public of their day. These influential works are collected here for the first time in English.
