Bøker av Edwin H. Zeydel

Originally published in 1950, this collaboration of two accomplished translators resulted in the first English verse translation of a major work of German literature. Rather than a translation of the entire poem, the translators present key passages connected by prose summaries, and include an introduction giving an overview of the work.

Originally published in 1955, this volume provides English translations of one hundred of Goethe's poems divided into nine periods. The biographical introduction traces Goethe's development as seen in his poems and an appendix gives information on musical settings to the poems.
