GOETHE, Johann Wolfgang von (1749-1832). Hermann und Dorothea [in:] Taschenbuch für 1798. Berlin: F. Vieweg, [1797].

First issue, first edition, the elegant variant printed on thin paper and wrapped in a red Saffian leather wallet. It enjoyed great success, fulfilling Schiller’s prediction. The epic poem Hermann and Dorothea is set around 1792 during the brief occupation of part of the Palatinate by French Revolutionary forces. Since its appearance, it has been considered a model of lyrical poetry, both by those who see it as Goethe’s most perfect creation, and by those who instead praise its supreme classicism. The six calendar copperplates with landscape views bear the numbers 1, 2, 7, 8, 9 and 10 (complete). Hagen 231.

12mo (113 x 77mm). Engraved frontispiece by Chodowiecki illustrating Frederick William II’s royal lineage, coloured engraved plate, and 6 engraved calendar landscape plates by Darnsted after Schubert (some light spotting). Original red Saffian leather wallet with pen pocket incorporated into the rear. Provenance: Wilhelmine Haentze, née Günther, posthumously gifted to Ottilie Milde, née Stack (manuscript note on verso of frontispiece).
