Goethe: Selected Verse
With an introduction and prose translation by David Luke

In Goethe. Selected Verse, David Luke explores how perceptions of Goethe's work have evolved over time. He notes that, although Wordsworth and Coleridge once joined in the chorus of criticism, "the image of Goethe in the English mind, though still not altogether well focused, is less distorted than it was." Today, Luke explains, "we are prepared now to acknowledge that the poems belong, with Faust, to the peak of his achievement and contain the very marrow of his genius."
