First and early editions of 5 works, including the first edition of Goethe’s innovative second libretto, which ‘differs from his first in many ways: it is a full-length, technically unruly, dramaturgically demanding, and emotionally charged work – every inch a Storm and Stress libretto, the first in the history of German opera’ (Bauman, p.169). Der Gross-Cophta and Der Bürgergeneral are comedies which satirize events relating to the French Revolution. A full description and condition report is available upon request. Thomas Bauman.
