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.
