Among the first—and most notable—examples of Germanys Sturm und Drang movement， The Sorrows of Young Werther was enormously influential upon its publication in 1774， creating a cult of personality around the tragic figure of Werther and causing a sensation in Europes literary community。
A literary celebrity by the age of 25， Goethe was ennobled by the Duke of Saxe-Weimar， Karl August， following the success of his first novel。 He was also an early participant in the Sturm und Drang literary movement。
The Sorrows of Young Werther is an epistolary，loosely autobiographical novel by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe，presented mostly as a collection of letters written by Werther， a young artist of a sensitive and passionate temperament， to his friend Wilhelm。 These give an intimate account of his stay in the fictional village of Wahlheim whose peasants have enchanted him with their simple ways。Werther meets Charlotte， a beautiful young girl who takes care of her siblings after the death of their mother， and falls in love with her although knowing beforehand that she is engaged。
