Cover Story (view full-size image):
Goethe’s historical dramas Götz von Berlichingen and Egmont both focus on proven war heroes of the 16th century. The revised completion of the first drama in 1773 and the first draft of the second, either in 1774 or 1775, are close together. Even today, both works and both heroes, Götz and Egmont, are all too readily and all too often mentioned in the same breath due to their extraordinary nature and associated with the Storm and Stress era. However, does this not mean that we recklessly abandon a differentiated view? Both figures are historically well known, but this is where the similarity ends, for it is unmistakable that Goethe’s historical, thematic design could not be more different without the author, however, allowing this perception to be snatched from him by a first cursory glance.
