“Andreas gifted me a copy of Goethe’s ‘The Sorrows of Young Werther’ (Johan Wolfgang von Goethe, 1774), the first tragic novel that not only captured hearts but also sparked the Romantic movement. This piece of literature, cherished by Napoleon during his Egyptian campaign and discussed during his encounter with Goethe in 1808, remains a staple in Europe’s educational syllabus for its literary significance.“
