Goethe and Zelter: Musical Dialogues
Goethe and Zelter spent a staggering 33 years corresponding or in the case of each artist, over two thirds of their lives.

This comparative study brings together a range of material from various genres, periods, and countries to explore the developing status of misanthropy in the European literary and intellectual imagination from the late Renaissance to the dawn of Romanticism. During this period, the term 'misanthropy' shifts from being an obscure Greek calque to being almost banal in its ubiquity.
