# Titan: A Romance. v. 2 (of 2)

By Jean Paul.

"Titan: A Romance. v. 2 (of 2)" by Jean Paul is a novel published between 1800 and 1803. Divided into "jubilees" and "cycles," this work follows young Albano de Cesara's education as he transforms from passionate youth to mature ruler of a principality. Through encounters with doomed characters embodying Romantic extremes—idealistic philosophers, calculating politicians, fanatical pietists, and emancipated women—the hero learns the value of harmony over one-sidedness. Jean Paul considered it his "cardinal" novel, crafted to critique the hubris of Romanticism's "Heaven-stormers." (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
