But until now it has never been thoroughly explored or evaluated. Deirdre Vincent examines the two versions of Werther in the context of Goethe's personal life in the intervening years. Goethe wrote and published the original version of this novel to great acclaim throughout Europe in 1774, drawing on the experience of a traumatic love affair he had had in Wetzlar in 1772. When the revised work was published some thirteen years later, the public saw the second version as little more than a reissuing of the original, and scholars over the past two centuries have persisted in this view. Vincent analyses Goethe's mode of writing and the role that literary creativity played for him during the first ten years or so in Weimar. She reveals how greatly the second version differs from the first, and challenges conventional explanations for the changes. Vincent sheds new light on Werther and on some of Goethe's other important works written between 1776 and 1789 / Contents INTRODUCTION 1 Werther, Goethe, and Charlotte von Stein Life, Love, and Writing 1775-89 2 Writing and Rewriting 1776-90 Literary Game-playing Werther 1776-86 Other Works Revised 1786-9 3 The Changes in Werther Albert Lotte Werther The Editor's Report 4 Werther: The Case for a Rereading The Final Werther in the Light of the Final Tasso Goethe on Writing and Being Read A Closer Look at Our Critical Responses to Werther Werther: A Summary of the Need for Review APPENDIX BIBLIOGRAPHY.
