Hermann Und Dorothea

Hermann und Dorothea

by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Hermann und Dorothea ist ein episches Gedicht von Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, das im Jahr 1797 veröffentlicht wurde. Das Werk erzählt die Geschichte von Dorothea, einer jungen Frau, die mit ihren Eltern als Flüchtling aus dem vom Krieg geplagten Frankreich nach Deutschland flieht. Auf ihrer Reise trifft sie Hermann, einen jungen Mann, der in einer kleinen Stadt am Rhein lebt. Zwischen den beiden entwickelt sich schnell eine tiefe Liebe. Goethe verwendet das traditionelle epische Gedicht, um die Herausforderungen und Möglichkeiten von Liebe, Ehe und Familie im Kontext des sozialen und politischen Umbruchs der Zeit zu untersuchen. Das Werk vereint klassische Elemente der epischen Dichtung mit romantischen Einflüssen und bietet einen tiefgründigen Einblick in die menschliche Natur und die gesellschaftlichen Verhältnisse am Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts.
