Goethe, Johann Wolfgang von 1749-1832 creator text utu 2004 monographic de 1 online resource : multiple file formats "Venetianische Epigramme" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is a collection of epigrams written in spring 1790, mostly in Venice. Modeled after the Roman poet Martial, these witty and satirical verses comment on European affairs and contemporary history. Goethe composed them during an unwanted interruption of his Weimar life, accompanying Anna Amalia on her return from Italy. The epigrams reflect his disillusionment with Italy and address both concrete Venetian life and broader themes. Most were published anonymously in softened form in Schiller's almanac in 1796.
