The subject of the paper is the relation between the film Young Goethe in Love (2010), directed by Philipp Stölz, and the epistolary novel The Sorrows of Young Werther. The paper is centered on the plot of the film as an adaptation of the novel; yet, the author of the paper also points out some relevant incidents from the life of the writer, as well as makes remarks with respect to certain changes aiming at disambiguation or specification, which were introduced due to specific requirements of the audio-visual medium. Moreover, the author of the paper strives to reconstruct the image of Goethe as created by the film-makers.

Può la gioia essere filosofica in letteratura quanto la malinconia? L’articolo ruota attorno a questa domanda. Nell’affrontare questa tematica l’autore del testo si sofferma in particolare sul XVIII secolo e sul romanzo I dolori del giovane Werther di Johann Wolfgang Goethe. La pubblicazione di questo romanzo e la sua ricezione possono essere considerati un punto di svolta nella storia della cosiddetta “alta letteratura”, che da allora in poi tenderà generalmente a privilegiare la malinconia come esperienza esistenziale umana centrale e allo stesso tempo più filosofica.

Can joy be as philosophical in literature as melancholy? The article is devoted to this question. In discussing the issue, the author focuses in particular on the 18th century and Johann Wolfgang Goethe’s novel The Sorrows of Young Werther. The publication of this novel and its reception can be considered as a turning point in the history of so-called high literature, which from then on will generally favor melancholy as the central existential human experience, and as the most philosophical one.
