Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre, in German, all eight volumes in a single file, with active table of contents (German Edition)

Product Description

Goethe’s masterpiece in the original German. According to Wikipedia: “Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (28 August 1749 – 22 March 1832) was a German writer. George Eliot called him “Germany’s greatest man of letters… and the last true polymath to walk the earth.” Goethe’s works span the fields of poetry, drama, literature, theology, humanism, and science. Goethe’s magnum opus, lauded as one of the peaks of world literature, is the two-part drama Faust. Goethe’s other well-known literary works include his numerous poems, the Bildungsroman Wilhelm Meister’s Apprenticeship and the epistolary novel The Sorrows of Young Werther.”

Classic French Fiction: first 4 volumes of A La Recherche du Temps perdu, in French with active table of contents (French Edition)

Product Description

The first four volumes of Proust’s masterpiece in a single file, in the original French. Du côté de chez Swann, 1913; A L’Ombre des Jeunes Filles en Fleurs, 1919 ; Le Côté de Guermantes, 1920-1921; and Sodome et Gommorrhe, 1921-1922. According to Wikipedia: “Valentin Louis Georges Eugène Marcel Proust (10 July 1871 – 18 November 1922) was a French novelist, essayist, and critic, best known as the author of À la recherche du temps perdu (in English, In Search of Lost Time; earlier translated as Remembrance of Things Past), a monumental work of twentieth-century fiction published in seven parts from 1913 to 1927… Begun in 1909, À la recherche du temps perdu consists of seven volumes spanning some 3,200 pages and teeming with more than 2,000 literary characters. Graham Greene called Proust the “greatest novelist of the 20th century”, and W. Somerset Maugham called the novel the “greatest fiction to date.” Proust died before he was able to complete his revision of the drafts and proofs of the final volumes, the last three of which were published posthumously and edited by his brother, Robert.”
