Overview

This volume contains Thomas Carlyle's translation of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's novel cycle, 'Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship' and 'Wilhelm Meister's Travels'.

The novels follow the protagonist Wilhelm Meister's journey of self-discovery and artistic development, offering insights into 18th-century German society, philosophy, and aesthetics. Carlyle's insightful preface provides valuable context and analysis, making this edition essential for students and scholars of German literature and Romanticism.
