"The Sorrows of Young Werther" (German title: "Die Leiden des
jungen Werthers") is an epistolary and loosely autobiographical
novel by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, first published in 1774; a
revised edition of the novel was published in 1787. Werther was an
important novel of the Sturm und Drang period in German literature,
and influenced the later Romantic literary movement. The book made
Goethe one of the first international literary celebrities. Towards
the end of his life, a personal visit to Weimar became crucial to
any young man's tour of Europe.
