West-östlicher Divan: Ten Lyrics with Friulian Translation

by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Translated by Ermes Primiano Culos

"West-östlicher Divan: Ten Lyrics with Friulian Translation" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is a collection of lyrical poems written between 1814 and 1819. Inspired by Persian poet Hafez, this work bridges Orient and Occident through twelve books of diverse poetry including parables, historical allusions, and reflections on Christian and Muslim cultures. The collection represents Goethe's late work and his last great cycle of poetry, symbolizing a stimulating exchange between Eastern and Western traditions.
