Chadwyck-Healey Editorial Statement: The Goethes Werke database consists primarily of the Weimar Edition of Goethe's works, originally published between 1887-1919 by Hermann Böhlau (and Nachfolger) under the patronage of Großherzogin Sophie von Sachsen and hence often referred to as the Sophien-Ausgabe. It is supplemented by material not found in the Weimar Edition, namely Goethes Gespräche, edited by Woldemar Freiherr von Biedermann (Leipzig, 1889-1896) and all the letters discovered since the completion of the Weimar Edition: Goethes Werke, Nachtrdge zur Weimarer Ausgabe, edited by Paul Raabe (dtv, München, 1990). All three of these sources are reproduced in their entirety (some 65,000 pages of text). All tables, diagrams, charts and illustrations are included, together with all of the comprehensive editorial apparatus. Original page breaks and line numbers are captured, as are the various typographic features of the printed editions. Where possible, sections of Errata and Addenda have been appropriately incorporated in the texts themselves.
