The Golden Goblet: Selected Poems of Goethe

By Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

The Golden Goblet traces Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's poetry from the idealism of youth to the liberation of maturity. In contrast to his rococo contemporaries, Goethe's poetry draws on the graceful simplicity of German folk rhythms to develop complex, transcendent themes. This robust selection, artfully translated by Zsuzsanna Ozsv th and Frederick Turner, explores transformation, revolution, and illumination in Goethe's lush lyrical style that forever altered the course of German literature.
