''Letters From Wetzlar, Written In 1817'' is a book written by James Bell and published in 1821. The book provides an authentic account of the events that inspired Johann Wolfgang von Goethe?s famous novel ''The Sorrows of Young Werther.'' Bell?s letters describe his travels to Wetzlar, Germany, where he investigates the real-life story of a young man named Jerusalem, who had a tragic love affair with a woman named Charlotte Buff. Bell?s research sheds new light on the circumstances that led to Jerusalem?s suicide and Goethe?s subsequent literary masterpiece. The book offers a fascinating glimpse into the historical context of ''The Sorrows of Young Werther'' and sheds new light on the enduring power of Goethe?s novel.To Which Is Annexed The Stork, Or The Herald Of Spring, A Poem.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
