Summary
"In this new study of Goethe, Professor Hatfield has set himself two principal goals: to trace the development of Goethe's art and thought through analyses of the most important poems, novels and plays; and to demonstrate that Goethe is not simply a great name from the literary past but a writer whose work, when well translated, can be richly meaningful for American readers today" -- back cover.
