Goethes Märchen ist eines der am wenigsten bekannten Werke Goethes und doch eines seiner geheimnisvollsten und bezauberndsten. Es erschien erstmals 1795 in der von Schiller herausgegebenen Zeitschrift »Die Horen«. Historischer Hintergrund ist die Französische Revolution, deren Wirkung auf Deutschland Schiller in einem Brief an Goethe als den “Schatten des Riesen” bezeichnete. Als reales Vorbild für den Schauplatz dieser rätselhaften Dichtung sehen einige Interpreten das antike Rom mit Fähre und Pantheon. Die englische Übersetzung von Thomas Carlyle erschien 1832. Goethe’s Fairy Tale is one of Goethe’s least known works and yet one of his most mysterious and enchanting. It first appeared in 1795 in the journal “Die Horen”, edited by Schiller. The historical background is the French Revolution, whose effect on Germany Schiller described in a letter to Goethe as the “shadow of the giant”. Some interpreters see ancient Rome with its ferry and Pantheon as the real-life model for the setting of this enigmatic poetry. The translation by Thomas Carlyle was first published in 1832.

Excerpt from Goethes Das Märchen: Edited, With Introduction, Notes, Vocabulary, and Conversational Exercises Goethe (johann Wolfgang von the greatest literary genius since Shakespeare, was born in Frank furt on the Main, then one Of the Free Towns or republics of Germany, August 28, 1749. His father, an imperial councillor, was a lawyer and destined his son for the same profession, but the latter, after some years of practice, accepted a position as friend and counsellor of the young Duke of saxe-weimar, Karl August, and thenceforth lived in Weimar, the capital of that little state. Here he met some of the greatest lights in Ger man literature: Wieland, distinguished both as an elegant prose writer and as a poet, the romantic epic Oberon being his finest poetic production; Herder, the great divine and philosophic thinker, whose acquaintance he had made while he was a student at the university of Strassburg, and later Schiller, his great rival and devoted friend: This group of remarkable men made Weimar one of the most famous places in the history of literature.

A fascinating analysis of one of the most popular children's works of all time. Kinderleben oder das Mährchen ohne Ende (1830) is a unique product of late German Romanticism. As a Kunstmärchen or 'artificial' fairy tale (as opposed to the more 'authentic' tales collected by the Grimm brothers, for example) it combines aspects of the traditional fairy tale with philosophical ideals, particularly those of idealism. Although only one edition ever appeared in Germany, it enjoyed wide popularity in England and the United States as The Story Without an End (1834), adapted by the foremost English translator of the period, Sarah Austin, on whom much critical attention has recently been focused. This new edition of text and translation includes a valuablecommentary with notes on the nine illustrators and a list of all previous editions of the work.

This book, originally published in 1992, traces the discourse on the French Revolution in Germany and its contributors investigate the processes and results of adopting or rejecting the values of the French Revolution in Germany and reinterprets its documents in terms of their internalization. One of the questions discussed is whether the French Revolution is part of Germany’s progressive tradition, that is, whether it has been repressed or whether it constitutes a viable counter-discourse within the political culture. The first successful revolution in Germany – the ‘Velvet Revolution’ of Autumn 1989 does not fit the definition of ‘classic revolutions, but it ended in a change of power in Germany and in that respect, this book is an anatomy of German political consciousness before 1989.
