From Goethe to Grimm

The late 18th and early 19th centuries formed a crucial period in German literature, giving birth to the Sturm and Drang movement, Weimar Classicism and Romanticism. This panel discussion will explore the central figure of this period - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and his unique role at the centre of literary developments and in the birth of a national romanticism. The collected tales of the Brothers Grimm will also be examined as popular folk tales that spoke to a nascent nationalism in the early 19th century.
