About the author

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749–1832) stands as a towering figure in Western literature. An archetype of the German literary titan, his works are essential cornerstones of the Sturm und Drang (Storm and Stress) literary movement and Weimar Classicism. From his pen flowed novels, poetry, dramas, and essays that deeply influenced the cultural landscape of his time and beyond. Among his notable novels is 'The Sorrows of Young Werther' (1774), a work that created a sensation and remains a fundamental novel of Romanticism. In poetry, his 'Faust' is an undisputed masterpiece, presenting a tragic play in two parts, which explores deep philosophical themes and the very nature of humanity. Goethe's literary prowess extended to theory as well, with his reflections on art and literature in writings such as 'Theory of Colours' and 'Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship'. His vast body of work does not only reflect his individual genius but also encapsulates the zeitgeist of 18th and early 19th-century Europe, influencing literature, philosophy, and even the natural sciences. His literary style is characterized by its lyrical elegance, intellectual depth, and a profound exploration of human experience. The collection titled 'World's Greatest Classics in One Volume' showcases the breadth and influence of Goethe's writing, cementing his reputation as a literary figure whose work transcends the confines of time and place.
