Focusing on Goethe's lyric poetry, this collection explores its evolution as a cohesive whole through a selection of both famous and lesser-known poems. The translations prioritize capturing the essence of Goethe's diverse meter in verse form, while avoiding the constraints of traditional rhyme that can lead to a stilted feel. The aim is to provide English speakers with a comprehensive view of Goethe as both an individual and a poet, showcasing the richness of his work.
