This volume presents papers given at the symposium which the English Goethe
Society organised to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the birth of Johann
Wolfgang von Goethe. It was held at the Institute of Germanic Studies in
London from 21 to 23 April 1999. The number of speakers and the variety of
topics treated speak for themselves, showing the range and vitality, though
not necessarily the limits of present British interest in Goethe. With
twenty-eight contributors and some hundred people attending over the three
days, this was perhaps the most sustained Goethe occasion yet held in these
islands.
