SUMMARY
Goethe's early plays bear witness to his urgent desire to enliven German theater--an ambition that followed him to the National Theater in Weimar, where he was named director in the early 1790s. This volume contains eight of these plays, written between 1771 and 1787. Not only do they demonstrate Goethe's unprecedented versatility in experimenting with new forms of dramatic expression, but they also give insight into his development fromSturm und Drangto classicism. These works include prose plays (Goetz von Berlichingen with the Iron HandandEgmont), tragedies and comedies (Clavigo,Stella, andBrother and Sister), and dramatic verse forms (Prometheus, Jery and Betty, andProserpina).Goethe, Johann Wolfgang von is the author of 'Early Verse Drama and Prose Plays' with ISBN 9780691043425 and ISBN 0691043426.
