Book Description
"Wilhelm Meister's Years of Travel is a compelling continuation of the Bildungsroman tradition, exploring the transformative power of travel and the quest for self-discovery." - Hermann Hesse A new translation into modern American English of Goethe's 1821 "Wilhelm Meisters Wanderjahre". This edition contains an Afterword by the Translator, a Timeline of Goethe’s Life & Works and a Glossary of Philosophic Terminology used by Goethe. "Wilhelm Meister's Years of Travel" is the sequel to Goethe's two earlier Wilhelm Meister novels, completing the epic triology. Here, Wilhelm embarks on a series of adventures and encounters as he travels through different regions, meeting various characters and engaging with various social and cultural contexts. Through these experiences, Goethe delves into themes of personal growth, societal critique, and the search for fulfillment. The novel examines the transformative power of travel, both externally and internally, as Wilhelm encounters new environments, confronts his own limitations, and seeks to find his true path in life. "Wilhelm Meister's Years of Travel" is celebrated for its insightful character development, philosophical musings, and its exploration of the nature of human life. Hermann Hesse's appreciation of the novel underscores its significance as a continuation of the Bildungsroman tradition.

Book Description
Goethe was a master of the short prose form. His two narrative cycles, Conversations of German Refugees and Wilhelm Meister's Journeyman Years, both written during a high point of his career, address various social issues and reveal his experimentation with narrative and perspective. A traditional cycle of novellas, Conversations of German Refugees deals with the impact and significance of the French Revolution and suggests Goethe's ideas on the social function of his art. Goethe's last novel, Wilhelm Meister's Journeyman Years, is a sequel to Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship and to Conversations of German Refugees and is considered to be his most remarkable novel in form.

Book Description
Wilhelm Meister's: Apprenticeship and Travels by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship (German: Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre) is the second novel by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, published in 1795-96. The eponymous hero undergoes a journey of self-realization. The story centers upon Wilhelm's attempt to escape what he views as the empty life of a bourgeois businessman. After a failed romance with the theater, Wilhelm commits himself to the mysterious Tower Society. These two translations, "Meister's Apprenticeship" and "Meister's Travels," have long been out of print, but never altogether out of demand; nay, it would seem, the originally somewhat moderate demand has gone on increasing, and continues to increase. They are, therefore, here republished; and the one being in some sort a sequel to the other, though in rather unexpected sort, they are now printed together. The English version of "Meister's Travels" has been extracted, or extricated, from a compilation of very various quality named "German Romance," and placed by the side of the "Apprenticeship," its forerunner, which, in the translated as in the original state, appeared hitherto as a separate work.
